Connect for Lemmy App

It’s been a month since v343 released (Jan 7, 2026) and there’s been 54 app updates since then, so here’s a quick recap of what’s new in the app.

I don’t know if others may feel that this is that much of a problem and even worth discussing but I do so I’m going to go on a little tangent. Just… a little.

Describe the issue: Video playback is unstable, sometimes with the infamous grey screen appearing. Example 1. Example 2.

If you upvote a post and then decide otherwise, tapping the upvote again, the poster will receive -1 to their user vote total. Doesn’t seem to be the case with comments, just posts.

Describe the issue: The nsfw filter seems to reset to Show after restarting the app. If you try to change this setting, it resets your theme to “light mode”. Looking in the theme section of the app, there is nothing selected in the drop down, but at the bottom of the modified settings list, I can see my theme was changed from amoled to “darkly-pureblack”.

Describe the issue: If you click the dots in the lower right of a post, and select Subscribe/Unsubscribe, your community subscriptions will not be updated.

Describe the issue: NSFW blur/hide/show/etc setting will not save.

Example of behavior: https://discuss.online/post/35408836

Some things could be added when exporting settings: alerts, user vote total, sticky community sort settings, maybe view history?(useful for multi-device like tablets)

The app is freezing so bad in the last few weeks it’s unusable. I tried to clear data, uninstall and reinstall but my account was still logged in!?

I used the export option as part of the database update. But I can’t find the backup file.

Filter keywords that are entered with comma-space are not being filtered despite being added to the keyword list below the text field to enter them. The user has to enter keywords as comma separated only despite the list being saved as comma-space separated. Furthermore, entering comma-space will save it as comma-double-space. Lastly, the settings saved message at the bottom keeps repeating once a change is made to the filter list.

Recently, NSFW posts are not being hidden, despite my setting to hide them. The posts are blurred at least, but something isn’t working properly here.

Describe the issue: New post notifications are repeating posts I’ve already been notified about, and not showing newer ones. Might be a community caching issue? The community in question when I went to it it wasn’t showing a newer post until I manually refreshed.

Scroll down 2-3 screen lengths in any user profile page and then switch sections(Overview, Posts, Comments), the top part with the use banner and section buttons are duplicated.

Describe the issue: It seems filters are not applying now, or possibly just not being respected. It may have to do with capitalization- it seems posts containing filtered words are allowed through if the first letter is capitalized.

I’m in the UK, due to differences of opinion between Imgur owners and the UK government whenever i access a thread with an embedded imgur picture imgur sends the following picture

Describe the issue: Normally there is a (D) symbol next to whichever feed you set as your default when starting the app. For some reason, this setting seems to have cleared itself and displays an error page instead.

Shouldn’t we have a Piefed Connect community? Or perhaps the intention is for this community to house both for the time being.

Hi everyone!

Describe the issue: When viewing a community, attempting to use the block community option from the menu in the top right will not block the community.

A few months ago the app would stutter sometimes with typical use. It was fixed and went away. It’s back for me.

When uploading an image in a comment, the text reading “Ok” overlaps the upload button.

Posted comment just now, noticed a typo and I wanted to add a little more and noticed the edit button has vanished.

Describe the issue: I’m getting silly amounts of duplicates on the user switcher. I used to have one of each account, then at some point they duplicated and I had two of each (maybe only in the right-hand menu). Now in both switchers I have four or five of each account!
