After you opt to join, the prompt window in the Play Store mentions it takes some time to get enrolled. Usually it’s a couple of minutes but sometimes it takes a few hours.

This was an issue in v1.0.269. It has been fixed so you just need to update the app. You may need to join the beta if you don’t see an update option. Joining the beta can be done on the Play Store or App Store of your device.

Do you give it gin?

You just need to tap on that Join button to update to v271. I thought v269 was part of the beta as well but I guess not.

After you upload a picture with Connect, you should get a URL. Under the area where you input your comment, there’s a toolbar of buttons. The leftmost one can be used to insert multiple pictures.

v271 is the latest version so I’m not sure why it’s not showing up. Maybe search for Connect for Lemmy and see if that refreshes with the update option?

Sometimes bugs are intermittent so who knows. I rarely download images so I might not even notice it. So it’s good to have different perspectives.

I’m not seeing the problem on v1.0.269 or v271. After tapping on the image, I can see the download button at the bottom and tapping on the three dots at the bottom right brings up a context menu that also has a download button. If this isn’t the case for you, what version are you on? The version can be seen at the top of the Settings page.

On the Block List page, if you scroll down using the left side of the screen, you should see the list of communities and blocked users. If you visit your home blahaj.zone and view your Blocks page in Settings, the communities and users you block in Connect should also be on this list.

If the above is not the case, what version of Connect are you using? The version can be found at the top of Settings.

Ahh, so that’s what it was. I agree that it may be better to have that setting on by default.

Below the title of every post should be a tappable link for the community. Wiith this post for example, there should be a “lemmyconnect” link below, “View community from post menu.” Tapping on that doesn’t take you to the community page?

So I tried leaving 0.875 scaling but changing to medium text size and it looks bigger than before. So going even smaller or super large is actually inapplicable to my Goldilocks preference.

I think I had it at 1 scaling and small text size already. I’m at 0.875 and small at the moment. Comment text size could be slightly bigger and everything else is fine for me.

I think the community and user button was removed to reduce the size of that particular overflow menu, which can help with the user interface on devices with smaller screens and or lower resolution screens. It seemed like a decent compromise since tapping directly from the feed would be faster.

I suggested the removal in a post but it didn’t solicit any replies opposed to the idea. Maybe it was a bad suggestion and I’m curious to hear the specifics of what people dislike about the change. Like I’m still trying to get used to not tapping on the community name at the top, when you’re viewing a post, to visit the community; which was changed to refresh the post like a while back. So I can understand developing muscle memory and having to adjust to changes. Is the change annoying because of a forced workflow change or like loss of functionality?

The feature you were asking for has been added in the latest beta, v264. So you may want to check your app store if you’re not on that version. Now, just to into Settings, tap on the three dots in the top right and there will be a “Display changelog” option.

Perhaps they were alluding to the expression, nothing is written unstone.

If you view your account settings in the browser, there should be a checkbox for “Bot”. This option is typically used for accounts that perform automated posting. So if yours is mainly a personal account, you may want to unchecked that option. The ability to change that may not be accessible through a third-party Lemmy app so you may need to login to lemm.ee on your browser.

To change the default sort, tap on “Post Customizations”, in Settings, and it’s right at the top, labelled "Default sort for posts.

It’s made in Canada. But is it a product of Canada?

Username checks ou… username does not check out. On a more serious note, Connect for Lemmy has the option to block instances at an account level.
