FAQ
- When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
- Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
- How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.

Awesome, I was also wondering about this. Been really pleased with the app for the most part and this was my biggest gripe. Good to see the team is on top of it!
Thanks
Yup. It's feeling/looking really good for memes and pics and short text posts.
But as soon as you come across a multi paragraph text post and it messes up the whole flow of the app. Especially if you didnt wanna read that particular post in the first place.
Yeah, the instance my account is on has a massive sticky that shows up at the top of my feed all the time. Really not fun to scroll past that to get to the real posts every time I refresh.
Ha! Same exact thing on the sh.itjust.works instance lol. And it's a good sticky! It was the perfect little intro to this fediverse. But yup, now it just adds like 9 finger scrolls just to basically use the app.
But worse: Im really here to read. That was the big pull of reddit for me, and Im hoping I can find communities here to fill that void. I wanna read long posts and stories, and then I want to make overly long text posts to talk about those stories.
We really need the titles-only options.
I agree. It’s similar to the stickied post that someone else already mentioned.
What might that be?
Sorry I guess I didn’t make myself clear enough. In another post Someone complained about stickied posts in some communities. These posts can be super lengthy and since they are always entirely displayed it takes a long time to scroll past them.
There is now!
How do i enable that?
Settings -> compact post view. You still get thumbnails for now, but they're working on an option to turn that off too
