Of the many Lemmy clients I’ve tried, Thunder is the one I like the best, but the one place I have nits is the creating a comment experience.

After typing the comment you have close you keyboard, to have any hope of the create button being visible (if your comment is really short) and then scroll all the way back up to the top. Isn’t the bottom the obviously better place for this button?

Even worse, if in trying to scroll the screen, you accidentally hit the little horizontal bar at the top, you just lose your comment.

Finally, it seems to always lose my place in the thread and put me back at the top after entering a comment.

    True. What annoys me the most in apps in general (Jerboa included) is the practice of losing your draft at the minor deviation of usual workflow. You gave the example of hitting the top bar, but the same happens when there’s a connection issue or if the app crashes or is closed by the OS to manage memory.

      It sounds a little extreme but I recommend a self-keylogging app. The OS doesn’t let them read password fields, you can generally exclude entire apps you don’t want logged, and you can set how long the app holds onto your logs. Look for one that doesn’t request internet permissions, of course.
