Tap as in single tap right? Also do you have swipe typing on? Last question, this is with Gboard?

Could you clarify on the issue? I haven't been able to reproduce the issue, on 422, on either Heliboard or Gboard. What I've been doing is double tapping, or tapping and holding, a word and the highlighting seems to working fine. It seems to be at the point where I tap and start at the beginning of the world and end at the end.
Yeah, it's a current bug. The feature was working before and I think it's an easy fix so it should be back to normal in the next update or two.~~
EDIT: Scratch that, it seems to be working fine. I'll have to check this out in more detail.
EDIT2: Are you possibly trying to hide a sticky post? Because currently you can hide it but then it comes right when you refresh the feed.
EDIT 3: Ah, so if you hide any post, it will hide it but it doesn't seem to be saved because once you refresh the feed, the post that should be hidden is back.
I've piggybacked reports by just adding a reply to my own posts so if you want to do that, I don't think anyone would mind.
To add to the report, I've seen this with posts that have 100+(or maybe it was 150) comments. Smaller posts don't seem to exhibit the problem for me. Sometimes tapping on view more, I get a message at the bottom that it can't load the comments, but after a few seconds, the comments proceed to be loaded. Sometimes, message but no comments. Sometimes it's an error exception about not being able to find the comments.
If you open the same post on your computer and then come back later, it would also be out of date until you manually refreshed the page. But when it comes to mobile apps, I think people are more used to content being more up to date.
Perhaps content, when grab, could be timestamped and when the focus is regained on the app, it could automatically refresh content that are say more than an hour old.
Until tweaks are implemented, users can manually update content info without having to clear the cache. It depends but sometimes just refreshing the post or feed will do. In some cases you do need reopen the app.
The user vote total setting is not on by default so if someone does not see any point or value in it, then they can just leave it off.
At least for me, I'm not predisposed to voting based on a user vote total. But I did recently read a post where someone mentioned they automatically downvote some posts without reading as a Reddit habit. So I can understand if some have reservations. But I don't think that user is representative of a large swath of Lemmy users. And not everyone had the user vote total setting on.
That said, I do appreciate your input and reply. It was just an idea I had and if it's not a good idea, well that's fine.
v1.0.421 was released recently and the changelog mentions addressing this. It is a beta release so you won't see it unless you've enrolled to receive such updates, which can be done from the app's Google Play Store page.
It's not open source. The dev said they were considering it sometime last year so I guess they changed their mind.
Wait, what? It's just the sender and receiver's instances that can read the message; it's not just any server right?
Yeah, Android only. You could try requesting iOS development. I'm not sure how open the dev would be to that though.


I think an option to hide blocked user's comments would be useful in cases where replies to their comments are corrections or pushback that one may want to see and upvote.
