Just uploaded the latest update to the Android beta channel for Gluon (2020.5 Build 32).

Main update points for you are as following:

  • Allow and display multiple sites if your account has more than one "blog" hosted on Micro.blog. That means you can easily select which blog you want to post to with a simple tap right in the post editor or selecting it in the "More" screen.
  • Categories update as you select a new site, if you use the above feature.
  • If you can “post” you will now see a floating post button on the main timeline screen, instead of it being in the header - now it’s certainly getting closer to the Android feel.
  • Profile image is now shown in the header, so you know what you… look like. And if you’re as handsome as Dominik then that’s good! 😋 Tap to open your profile or long press to view the account screen allowing you to add more than one account and switch between them.

Now, there are a few issues that I have found whilst writing this, and I’ll get to them. Nothing too major. It’s a “beta” after all.

Next up is to add Push Notification support… and once that is tested and done… it will slowly move to public release.

Stay in the loop
