Ratings and reviews

Fedilab works much better than the free clients I have tried and has the best "pick up where you left off" features of any social media app I have used. Feature request: give some form of feedback when "working" to "Fetch more messages". This can take quite a while given the nature of the Fediverse and there's no way of knowing that it's still loading. Thanks!

So far so good, just one oddity with previews. I can get YouTube/Peertube previews in an individual message view, but the same post doesn't expand a preview in the timeline feed. I don't see any setting to update that...don't suppose I'm missing something or there's a way to request that as a feature? Absolutely worth the purchase regardless!

Great new update guys. Not sure when that happened. I've been having an issue with sending reactions through on fedilab. If I press "😆" and there's already 1+ "😆," for example, then it simply highlights the bubble. If I use the drop-down menu to select it, it will remove the bubble that shows (😆 1) leaving nothing there.
