Arctic is a (much) better Lemmy client than any other out there for iOS at least but there are some nifty features for the most recommended app Voyager like the ability to disable side swipes altogether because Apollo’s (reddit) double-tap to upvote for example is much intuitive where side swipes are used to enter and exit communities, posts, comments, menus, settings… or whole app together on Android or Jailbroken devices.
This is my multireddit link after removing u/user which were included as r/_u/redditor from an existing bug to test this for Arctic which would fully enable me along with a lot of us to leave Voyager behind.
I can change it to to reddit instead of old.reddit it seems either way it links to the exact same page. I can see how that could be confusing to a novice user.
As for
u/u_<user>in the link, I do filter those out so it will not show those in the results./c/and/u/were intentionally left unsupported due to this being a remnant prior to the new linking format of@<user>@<insatanc.xyz>and!<community>@<instance.xyz>. I can add support for these links though. I think for forward compatibility, I’ll have it automatically convert these links to the new format if one is typed.Instead of filtering them out completely try to utilise them like I have the same username on reddit and lemmy which should be the case for celebrities and famous figures as well like comic book artists.
I like that idea more, I’ll definitely add support for this. Thanks for the idea!
Always
