    Scrolling is quite smooth and it looks good at a first glance. Here’s some feedback:

    • app icon tab in settings crashes
    • can’t login to Lemm.ee
    • the feed feels very sparse, I think decreasing the horizontal padding as well as the vertical padding could help, not sure how that looks like though. I‘d try half of the horizontal padding and 1/3 or 1/4 of the vertical one
    • seeing what feed I’m currently scrolling would be nice

      Thanks for the detailed feedback. I’ve just submitted 0.8.75 which will address points 1,2 and 4. Will add in a compact mode soon in the future!

        Thanks :) Where can I see the current feed? I was expecting it in the navigation bar

          I think version 0.8.75 only just got approved, so you should be able to see it after updating
