[Mastodon] Automatically load more posts

Open heredos opened this issue 3 months ago • 3 comments

currently, the mastodon feed only loads one page and the stops, with no other way to "load more".

given the current ux direction of the app, i would expect it to automatically call to load more posts on scroll, like it does with x

Can you share which mastodon instance you're using? This might be a compatibility issue with older mastodon version.

i am using snac2, which is mostly mastodon-compatible api wise, but with a few quirks here and there. it seemed weird to me that it was one of said quirks though, as all the other apps i tested did show a functionnal "load more posts" button at the end of the feed

Flare uses link in the response header to detect if there's next page, and automatically load the next page when scroll to the end of the list, if you scroll fast enough or click into post detail you can see the loading placeholder at the bottom of the list. snac2 might not have the link header in the response, I can add a fallback method in case no link header in the response.
