Bug with downloading
Hello !
When I try to download an image, with the new good looking (ππΌππΌππΌ) popup overlay, I get this error:
Cheers!


Link opening in external browser broken
Was working in a recent version but now everything opens in the internal browser. I'm on v247.
EDIT: For posts with links where the thumbnail is not resolving, the link goes to the external browser. For everything else, it opens in the internal browser; with the open external setting on.

Export settings not exporting all settings
First and foremost, I'm really glad this feature has finally been added. Many have requested and it's here. Unfortunately, it's not fully baked yet.
Filters(keyword), MultiCommunities, and user notes are not exported in v244. Domain and other filters may also not be exported; I didn't have those so I'm not sure if they get exported.
So whatever you do, don't go clearing the app cache and expect everything to be saved when you import. Like I did. I only have myself to blame for testing freshly implemented features on beta builds. Losing my user notes hurt.

Keyboard pop-up bug
Recently, I noticed the keyboard would sometimes pop up at random times and I finally figured out reproducible steps.
Search any community from the sidebar and tap on it. Tap on a post and then tap and hold the screen, sliding it to the right. The keyboard should popup for some reason, even though there is no input field on-screen(after the post view is off-screen). This only seems to happen if the search field in the sidebar has text inputted. I was wondering why the heck the keyboard keeps popping up.

Pinned posts showing up at bottom of page 1
Pinned posts were showing up at the top of communities a couple of versions back but they're following your sort settings in v241. And I think a few versions prior as well.
EDIT: Ah, so they're actually showing up at the bottom of page 1. They don't follow your sort settings and enabling the page number setting revealed that specific.

Draft not saved after setting image?
I typed out a post and went to add the picture for it but after the upload, a draft wasn't saved and the body section was empty. It was only two sentences so not a big loss. This is with v232.
Also, can the title be saved with the drafts as well? The title field is never saved.
EDIT: Interestingly, the title is saved after selecting an image but the body is not. While a saved draft, after backing out of post creation, doesn't include the title.
EDIT2: Another bug is post edits are no longer appearing after you submit them. Even when you back out to the community view and go into the post to refresh it, the updated post is not reflected and you need to reopen Connect for the things to be updated.

Video continues playing after being closed?
After unmuting the video here and then closing it, the audio continues to play. This is occuring on v224.
EDIT: Occuring with other videos so it's not specific to that one. The only way to stop the audio at the moment is to go back to the video that was playing and mute it.

disappearing menu bar
I keep running into a situation where the top menu bar disappears. I can scroll up down and enter/exit posts but I can't e.g. change filter settings because the interface elements for them aren't there. Most recently this happened when I blocked a community- my feed was reset and my menu bar disappeared.
Update April 19 2025 seems to be fixed in current beta Version 1.0.251

.gif file gray screen rendering bug
I'm consistently getting this bug on 1.0.216. If I go to this post, tap on IninewCrow's comment, that starts with "Like Drump ...", to minimize that thread, then tap on it again to restore the thread, everything below their comment becomes an endless gray screen. Backing out and then opening the post again will fix the problem. When first entering the post, if I tap on a comment in one of the other thread chains, then I'm able to minimize comments in that particular chain without triggering the bug.
EDIT: This looks related so I'll add it here. If I go to this post, tap on AlolanVulpix's link, back out to the post, then tap on the overflow menu for the post, the whole screen becomes gray.
Also, AlolanVulpix's link isn't being resolved correctly by Connect andΒ produces a "GoException: no routes for location: /post/39971490/14887796?hint=39971490/14887796&hintInstance=lemmy.ca" error but viewing the post in the b

Viewing images horizontally doesn't display properly.
When trying to view an image in landscape, the image will be zoomed in on the top of the image. Frequently it will be black space (at least in dark mode) even if the image doesn't have black space above it.


Attempting to zoom out the image or scroll around just exits the image.

Weird feed issue when setting Frontpage as default

As the title says, I've set Frontpage as default. Now, whenever I load into the app, this is what my feed does. Note the hintInstance=null stuff at the top as well. If I click Frontpage from the left panel, it'll refresh normally and populate. I've tried setting any other as default, and the result is the same. Any ideas? Or is this something that's already being looked at?

Open external links setting not saving
For some reason my setting for opening links in external application does not save. I can change it, close settings, go back into settings, and it is off again. Ideas? 1.0.73. Edit: Dangit! There is a save button under settings! I never noticed\thought of it since Im not used to having to do that in an app. :\ Working now.
