Voyager

Would it be possible to make it easier to copy a single word? Right now there are multiple steps where I need to hold it down, then click select text, then try to highlight a word if I want to get a translation of a word for example.

It would be nice if I could just directly highlight a word with a tap or translate without the multiple steps. Thanks for the app.

Why does android not have filtering when iPhone does?

Don't see my issue in the comments, hopefully this isn't a duplicate. I'm on iOS, 18.3, this problem has been ongoing for a while tho. When I open a linked page, it opens correctly but then after a short time, perhaps a second or two, the in-app browser locks up. I can open in safari and that works fine.

Aside from that, Apollo refugee here. 👋

A couple of things irk me (on iOS):

• Shaking the phone if I’ve opened a text editor brings up the “undo typing” dialog, even if I’m on the main feed or in a comments section
• sometimes, the app freezes and restarts (almost like an out of memory) and I think it’s related to sometimes when I swipe away from a video or browser view, I can still hear audio from a media player for a second. Are views being left open on the background for a long time, possibly indefinitely?

Other than that, great app! Loving as an Apollo replacement.

One of favourite apps!

Two requests:

1. Ability to open shared Lemmy URLs in Voyager, via share sheet to the app, iMessage extension maybe too, and clipboard recognition once in the app although this might have privacy issues I suppose. My family sends a lot of Lemmy links via iMessage and it’s annoying having to load the page, tap the image, close the tab after and return to iMessage to comment. I remember Apollo having something better with this.
2. Block community on a post from an All, Local or Home feed. Right now you have to tap into the sub/community and then tap ellipses to get the block function.

Another thing is better search but I believe Voyager might be doing the best that it can right now compensating for the terrible search in Lemmy. And that terrible search might also be a byproduct of the federated instances (sync time, different restrictions, etc) which I guess is an acceptable trade-off for now if so.
