  1. Btw imo FediText has surpassed IceCubes for my favorite app to access Mastodon (or gotosocial). I have been using & preferring IceCubes for almost 4 years. Recent changes to IceCubes have made it worse for me. And recent changes to FediText have been for the better.
    Of course YMMV 🙃

  5. Re: customization & the emphasis I put on physical layout, I'm using #iceCubes less these days for one reason. I don't like the placement of the buttons beneath posts. They used to span the entire column and my finger memory still goes to where they "should" be. Thus I'm annoyed all day long while using Ice Cubes now. So I'm using #FediText more. There's a lot I like about ice cubes but a visual change that makes no sense to me pushes me away.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  9. Does searching break #GoToSocial ? Serious question. Not, "is search broken on G2S?" but does it break the whole thing? Every time I search it's like a system failure. Spinning process indicator for a long time, no results, sometimes I get an actual "No internet connection" error while I'm clearly online. It's like the very act of searching kicks me off the network! Ah well my use of GTS is just an experiment. If I can't search that's kinda bad. It might be #FediText app.

  13. HIVE MIND! URGENT PLEA!

    Till a day or two ago I accessed Masto on my phone using Feditext. It has now disappeared. (Literally. Apparently it was still in beta and the developer nuked it.)

    Can any of you (i) tell me where I can find a working copy of FT (without downloading code from github and doing, ehh, something with it -- not a dev meself) or (ii) recommend a good alternative app?

    And even if you can do neither, do please boost!

  23. I'm aware that the current TestFlight beta has expired and I'm looking into why the new build isn't showing up. Might not happen until tomorrow, it's getting late here. Sorry for the inconvenience!

  33. Why can’t mastodon apps on iOS get list scrolling insertion right?! Like both #toot and #feditext will eventually display a call to action button with “load more” once you scrolled far enough. That will be sandwiched between what you just seen and whatever it already had loaded in the past. That button is recognising that you can load content between that interval.

    And very often when you click it, they load loads of statuses but instead of keeping you at the top of the fresh content, you will be at the bottom of it and have to scroll up to find where the list of new things start. It is so bad.

  35. the context menu stuff isn't that bad fortunately, and the link preview framework goes back to iOS 13. though i will need a preview metadata cache

  38. coming soon to iOS 17 and up (and late to iOS 15 and 16 because the text item interaction API doesn't exist there and i'll have to do it the hard way): context menus!

    don't ask me how quote posts are going, i will cry

  41. Feditext beta users: version 1.7.2 build 145 fixes an API decoding issue with media attachments that can prevent posts and timelines from loading. while this could affect any Fedi server, it was happening more frequently in the current GTS RC. that's likely to be fixed by GTS in their next RC.

    also, we forgot to announce it 😅 but previous build 144 fixed the Open in Feditext share sheet action on iOS 18 and 26. it should now work for any iOS version we support (15–26).

  49. Feditext beta users: version 1.7.2 (build 143) disables some aspects of Liquid Glass as a workaround for the layout weirdness with the post composer controls. it should affect only iOS 26 users.
