Hello @mastoblaster about the timeline, is it automatically refreshed or do I need to pull down to refresh it?

[mastoblaster@mastoblaster.app]

@alelab@bsd.cafe It refreshes automatically in a few cases (like initial load and after closing compose/reply screens), but it does not continuously auto-refresh in the background, to save battery.
So for the latest posts, you should still pull down to refresh.

This will be reworked after fixing some other bugs.

@mastoblaster Understood
Thank you for this good Mastodon client. I really love it
Nice to use, simple. Really a good idea to develop it @stefano

I don’t know if this is simple or even feasible, but may I suggest to add a limiter with the latest toot read before the refresh the timeline?

@alelab @mastoblaster Yes, it's in the to-do list.
I had an old implementation with the "you have 42 unread posts" and tapping on it, it was scrolling to the first unread one. But it wasn't working on snac (a different way to identify the timeline position), so I'll rework it in another way. I'll probably add a button to refresh without "scrolling" it and make an option to "go always back to the last position"
