Beer in my right hand… maybe I can start work on the Gluon timeline marker sync… 🤔

Alrighty, so now to tear down feed syncing for Gluon. Yipppeeee. Probably the oldest code in the whole app (except login logic). Good thing with this is, is that I can also bring it to Android when it’s done.
Adding a bit more context to the context menu in Gluon.
Just a general shout out to anyone that wants to promote their things in Gluon, you may do so with the following info here. No charge. Hope it helps whomever needs it.
So, asking for Gluon… what do you expect from a "Last viewed" marker?
- To keep your scroll position across devices? So if you scroll, it will keep in sync where you are no matter if you have previously seen it or not.
- The above, but instead of scroll position, only take into account posts you have seen after your last viewed position (well, any item above)? And then keep scroll position? Or no scroll position.
- Just keep in sync the last, top most, post that loaded in your feed.
- The above, but only update after you have scrolled to your last position.
- and everything else that I didn’t think about...
Reply away ❤️ This is important market research 😂
I had to remove custom theme support for the upcoming TestFlight version of Gluon. I don’t think I’ll be able to add custom themes until the bigger rewrite. It’ll switch based on the system for now.
Will of course see if I’m able to add it again...
Thanks so much to everyone letting me know how well my timeline marker button is working in Gluon… NOT 😭. I am going to rewrite the sync "engine". Suggest you turn off the setting in Nitpicky. It will still sync your position to the MB API though.
Don’t think I have enough accents available in Gluon…
Totally NOT inspired by new Apple hardware.
Guess I have to rewrite the Gluon feed sync logic. Hurray. I better go and buy a bottle of Sambuca...
Wrote a little blog post about the next Gluon TestFlight version (out now!). Excited to have started that this week. More to come. When I work on Gluon I go to my happy place ❤️
