Yes! Long-press a setting, and the link (in markdown format) will be copied to your clipboard. :)


Here’s a direct link to that setting. :-)
Oh good catch! You’re absolutely right, we only look up the first 50 unread messages when we generate notifications.
We would have to implement some paging here to retrieve all unread messages.
Tagging @darklightxi@lemmy.world as you might be interested in this!


I think you hit the nail on the head. I’ll just add for clarity that (unless something has changed) Lemmy can only determine cross-posts based on matching links (whether it’s an article, image, etc.). There is no way to correlate text cross-posts, which is why the UI (both the Lemmy web UI and Thunder) put the little “cross-posted from…” note in the body. At the very least, that helps the user find the original post from a cross-post, considering there is no special relationship in the back-end between cross-posted text posts.
Again, this was my understanding of how things worked last time I looked into this.
Aside from everyone else’s suggestion to disable battery optimizations, which is a likely culprit, I would also suggest logging out of your account(s) and back in. Sometimes if there is stale info, the notifications will fail silently in the background.


This feature is now in development for Thunder!


Hey, thanks for sharing this! We now have a GitHub issue open to track the two small things that Thunder failed. Nice to see it did so well, though! :-)


Thunder allows cross-posting! It should follow the web UI implementation (where the body of the new post has a link to the original, plus the original contents in a quote block).


As one of the Thunder devs, I can say there are markdown libraries. Thunder is written in Dart/Flutter and there is a great library that we use.
https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_markdown
That said, and as others have mentioned, markdown is not as well standardized and it seems like just about every site renders it differently, so there are a lot of edge cases to handle. Lemmy also has several unique implementations of things, such as spoilers, superscript/subscript, and the ability to tag users/communities without a hyperlink.
In fact, one of the things Thunder failed on (table alignment) is a known bug in the markdown library we use. :-)
Hi @blackbrook@mander.xyz, is it possible that you could show a screen recording of the issue you’re seeing? I’m wondering if you’re seeing the playback controls (play/pause/seek/etc). These appear over the video at the very beginning and have a dimmed background so you can see the controls. This is pretty standard for video players (e.g. YouTube does the same). As @MicrowavedTea@infosec.pub said, you can tap anywhere to hide the controls and undim the video.
We don’t officially publish a build for Windows, but you can build it yourself and target Windows. Here’s what the icon would look like in the taskbar. Not sure if it’s exactly the same as what you saw!

Hey there! You can block communities in a bunch of different ways!
There may even be some more ways I’m not thinking of. Plus if you block a community via the web UI or any other app, Thunder should respect that.
Let us know if that helps!


Let OP/mod colors take precedence and override the default color with them
I think this is a good idea! This should allow for colorized user/instance names while keeping special user badges distinguishable.
Just chiming in here to say that this has already been implemented in the current prerelease and should be available in the upcoming general release!



That’s great, I’m glad to hear the haptic feedback in Thunder works when the system setting is turned on.
To be honest, it feels like the right behavior for Thunder to respect the system setting. I personally keep “Touch feedback” turned down, because I do not like haptic feedback, and I’m glad Thunder and other apps respect that. I tried Voyager, and you’re right, it seems to override that setting, which doesn’t seem like a good thing to do. :)
Let me know your thoughts, and whether it’s an acceptable solution that users will need to enable haptics in system settings in order for it to work in Thunder. Thanks!


This isn’t yet supported from the account page (it should be at some point), but there is a workaround. It you navigate to your user profile elsewhere in the app, for example by searching for yourself or tapping your username on a post/comment, then scrolling should hide the banner as you expect. Hope that helps!


Hey, just chiming in here to say that I do get haptic feedback on my physical device (Pixel 8 Pro) when using swipe gestures on both posts and comments.
Make sure this setting “Touch feedback” is turned up.

If you’re still having issues, you’re welcome to open a GitHub issue (or ask someone here to do it for you), but it will likely be hard for us to investigate if we can’t reproduce. :-(
