   What's now your top priority to fix with #Fedilab?
   Think to use the GPS icon at the top right to see all replies and interact with suggestions.
   Thank you.

     Please fix the image viewer.
     Right now, when zoomed, paning the image will often reset to the default zoom level, which is a pain.
     I often have to download images to see them in my phone's gallery app because Fedilab's image viewer keeps bugging out.

     We have to check if your instance gives info about media size. That's what fedilab uses to create the space in timelines.

     @apps I still vote for fixing the jumping timeline. When an image (and maybe link preview?) loads off the top of the screen, the current position shouldn't change at all. Only a touch should move the timeline.

     Do you use fit preview media option? Other apps don't do that but that needs the instance gives info about media width and height so the app calculates the needed space.

     @apps I've tried a lot of apps, and Fedilab is the only one with this jumping issue, so I assume the others do something like anchoring, or they fetch media information in a different way. (Fedilab is better in several other ways, so I don't want to switch back!)

     @apps Even if it didn't, would it be possible to anchor images at the bottom rather than the top, so that when they load, they shift the timeline upward and don't change the reading position? (More carefully: anchor them on the side of the reading position, so that reversed timelines, or people who read the timeline top-down, aren't affected either.)

     @apps I do use it, because Fedilab crops the image more than other apps if it's turned off. Here's a comparison with Tusky, for example.

     Could you add an audible notification option for follow requests (locked accounts)? I know they appear in the tab, but it's easy to miss sometimes if you get a lot of notifications. Or have I overlooked that setting? I've checked everywhere for it.

     I never get request notification sounds at all and can't find a setting to enable it. There's a "follows" notification setting, but that does nothing for locked accounts until *after we approve incoming requests. In those cases, a notification isn't needed because we've obviously just approved it.

     The pinch-zoom in the image viewer is better, but still pretty wonky; I can't recall using any other app that is so finicky about such a basic function.

     3. I miss hours of messages without a notice or "load more messages" button.
     I follow an hourly time bot, and all its messages, and those from other users, between 7 am and 2 am today are missing in home timeline.
     (Checked: The time bot did post hourly messages in the missing hours.)

     1. Interface is messy:
     -The icons are too prominent, I would like to see them more subtle, but the resize icon option is broken compared to a few versions ago.
     -The unnecessary use of a too large font: when editing profile fields, filter notifications, opening a message.
     - Profile look is not balanced: websites would look better when all is left aligned, and info should not be in a box or underlined when already in different color, see image. Note icon too prominent.

     For media, it's a wanted behaviour. But we can add an option for that.
     For URLs, just long press them, you will have a menu with some interesting options :)

     @apps one anoying bug in #fedilab is that I do not see images when there are more than one and they are behind CW. That would be my top priority to fix. I would also like option to see whole URL inline as I can't copy curl examples in one go. Looking at older posts there is date in wrong format, I'd like to set that to my liking. But those two are minor things. Otherwise I love this app ? Thanks for great work.

     @apps yes, I know. But if I have for example curl command line, I can't just copy it as it have broken (shortened) URL. I have to copy it from long press menu as second step. I'd like to generally just see whole URLs inline, not in popup, but that situation when it's part of command is most annoying.

     Best practice is tutorial within the app as you use it imho.
     
     But after all it was just an idea ?
