Welcome to the Mlem 2.0 Feedback Megathread! This is where we will be posting changelogs for the Weekly TestFlight (the Stable Pre-Release changelogs will get full posts), so check back here to see what’s new!

This is also the place to post feedback on the Weekly beta (or you can just open an issue on our GitHub if that’s your style).

Please be aware that this is an early beta build, may be missing features you consider essential. See the “Roadmap” section of our 2.0 release post for more details.

If you would rather join the Stable Pre-Release group, which receives curated, stable pre-release builds, you can do so here

2024-08-29

We got a ton of great feedback from our initial release, and have implemented a number of new features and bug fixes:

  • Added mark read on scroll (Settings -> General)
  • Added a default feed setting (Settings -> General)
  • Added a setting to adjust haptic behavior (Settings -> General)
  • Fixed the lock icon being the wrong color

We’ve got a lot more in the works, so if you commented yesterday with a bug or feature request that isn’t mentioned here, stay tuned! We expect to be releasing builds fairly rapidly over the next few days.

This is the initial beta release. We’re still bringing 2.0 up to feature parity with 1.0–this build should have everything you need to browse and interact with Lemmy. Please note that post creation and moderation tools are not currently supported in the 2.0 build–post creation is in active development and moderator tools are a high-priority item, so if you want to join the beta but those are important to you, check back in a week or two!

We’ve also got some new features:

  • Markdown support
  • Tiled post layout
  • Keep place on account switch (allows you to switch accounts without fully reloading the app)
  • Guest accounts
  • Color themes

Check out our 2.0 release post for more details on the new release.

    I can’t seem to upvote or post? When I upvote I get the animation then it returns to the old number. Posts I just get Error.

      Thanks for the bug report! It looks like this is due to the antique backend Beehaw is still running–we’ll have a compatibility patch out soon.
