    Okay, thanks for clarifying. I uploaded another build, version 1.2.3, that moves the Reply option to the end, instead of removing it entirely.

    To head off potential followups: I won't be going more fine-grained than that, interspersing it into the middle of any default system menu options. The system menu options can easily change between iOS updates, and I don't want to deal with that.

    (Android users: On Android the advanced setting is still to remove Reply entirely. It's not straightforward to customize the ordering on Android AFAIK.)

    Oh shoot, thanks for letting me know. The release build had a configuration error causing that crash. I've uploaded version 1.2.3 that fixes the Advanced settings on Android.

    Phoenix Framework is a pleasure to use, together with Elixir providing great ergonomics. Erlang VM makes it all run very lightweight and fast. Very impressive and satisfying tech stack.

    LiveView is a really cool model for realtime web applications using websockets, and created a lot of interest when it first came out a few years ago. I'm happy to see it reach 1.0.

    What a compelling watch!

    I liked watching this other streamer (Jerma985) trying the game for the first time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR2KY05_duo — it works well as an intro for those who haven't experienced the game before, before diving into the speedrunning video. No need to watch the whole thing, I skipped around and watched a few minutes here and there.

    FWIW I don't think that's intended to be read as "that's your problem" but rather "that's the problem." In the tone of someone trying to help troubleshoot. Like a plumber uncovering a leaky pipe and saying, "yeah, that's your problem right there."

    But back on topic, you are correct that that option is added by me. I've noted the muscle memory issue, but for now I'm not making plans to change it or add an option, sorry to say. I have regretted adding too many options in previous apps. If it's a widespread problem then I might reconsider down the line.

    I'm a bit surprised the "Reply" option isn't showing up. But not that surprised because I'm sure that menu works differently on different manufacturers. Always feature fragmentation on Android. If you like, feel free to message me your device info and I can research if that's a known issue with a workaround.

    Thanks for the sentiment! It's kind of a passion project in that I'll never make a proper wage from it; there aren't enough Tildes users for that. I do accept donations, as others pointed out.

    Good point. It sounds like it's slightly easier now to go back and forth with a saved draft and viewing other comments, but maybe it would be even better with scrollable comments while the bottom sheet is open. It's trickier than it sounds though, since there are a lot of small interactions that would have to be disabled if a reply panel is currently open. So not conclusive at this point.

    This topic is for the Three Cheers for Tildes mobile app.

    I'll summarize the major updates at the start of each similar topic, so people can read the updates and then hit Ignore if they don't care about more frequent updates and user feedback.

    Recently:

    Version 1.2.2 (Dec 5, 2024):

    • Added advanced settings to auto-vote on topics when opening them
    • Added advanced setting to hide "Reply" from text long-press menu
    • Fixed inserting markdown links with parentheses
    • Fixed UI bugs in profiles
    • Fixed crashes opening certain topics

    Happy Thanksgiving! Three Cheers version 1.2 is out for Android and iOS! (Nov 27, 2024)

    • Save drafts of comment replies, edits, and private message replies
    • Manage drafts via Settings
    • Improved some error messages

     

    Does not yet support saving drafts of new submissions

    I know some of you were hoping for topic submission drafts, but I wanted to release what I've implemented so far with comment drafts. This version took a decent amount of time to develop, and I didn't want to delay it further by adding submission drafts in this release. Thanks for your patience!
