Hi Boost gang,

The first version of Boost for Lemmy is almost ready. If you want to test the app for bugs and give feedback before the app is published, follow this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.rubenmayayo.lemmy to enable an early access option on the Boost for Lemmy Play Store listing.

Thanks for your patience!

Amazing work

Thank you. Ad free purchased! Keep up the good work

[โ€“] BenDover@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Looks promising. So excited!

[โ€“] Justly0250@lemdro.id 2 points 2 years ago

I'm trying this. Is very smooth!

It just gives me an error when i try to download it. "Google play payments are not supported in your country. I'm in Germany

[โ€“] Boldizzle@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

For some reason I'm unable to pay to remove ads but I believe it might be a Google issue. Loving the app so far though!

Feels like home, have used Boost for absolutely years, so glad it's here for Lemmy now too

Hey all, I may be missing something obvious, but is it possible to add an account for an instance not in the pre-made list?

[โ€“] WyldeFyres@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

I would love to know this too.

Edit: yes, you can. Just type in the URL yourself in the instance box. No need to select from the list.

I'm here ๐Ÿ˜

Thanks @rmayayo@lemmy.world (testing how I can mention at users in Lemmy lol). Loved the app before, and this reincarnation is why I'm even in Lemmy right now in the first place. Already bought ad-free and also put some extra fuel in the rocket! ๐Ÿš€

Edit: testing mention again, since I didn't see it become a link in my comment: @rmayayo

Is there a setting to show seperate upvote/downvote counts? I'd prefer that over the "net" score which reminds me of r*ddit.

[โ€“] Nipplecreek@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can I sort by only gifs, pictures, or text? It was an option for the reddit version but I can't find how to do it on this new version for Lemmy.

Works great. It really feels like I'm using Boost for Reddit. Thank you mate, ad-free version purchased :)

So far it feels solid to me. Thanks so much for your hard work

[โ€“] wayl@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Is is possible to opt out from comments notification on own posts? I didn't find the checkbox as I used to have in the old reddit app.

[โ€“] SaintNewts@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It's a great start!

[โ€“] DocCrankenstein@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Images are able to be posted in comments. Ability to press and make them bigger would be useful.

Understood would be difficult with the press to collapse feature.

Ready for the next version

I have never used boost for Reddit but I am posting from it right now and first impressions are IT IS AWESOME! An easy ad free purchase from me!

[โ€“] ilikemoney@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Only issue I'm having is random timeouts, but I think that just a lemmy thing in general. Nice app
