As someone who spends a lot of time switching between the two styles of viewing, I think it’d be nice to have an easily accessible toggle option for compact posts, a la Mlem. Also, congrats on getting into the AppStore!

    Hmm I’ll explore a way to do that. I believe Apollo had it in the top right corner of the screen, right?

    Ooh interesting request… Just out of genuine curiosity, why are you switching back and forth? What is your use case?

    I would think most people (including myself) would find (or customise) a view that works best for them and stick to it perpetually - until it is time to improve on it or switch things up for a fresh look.

      For me some communities are more image based and I’d rather see the full image for those, but on the ‘All’ feed I prefer compact view in case irrelevant or nsfw things pop up and take more space

      Honestly, it just depends on the community I’m browsing. Sometimes I feel like taking in a bunch of information at a time with compact view, then I’ll move to a picture centric community and switch to larger images.

      Diving into settings each time just gets a bit tedious after a while.

        Right… I gotchu. Never ever thought of doing that tbh. Might just be me but I have that mentality of setting everything up just nice and never change it again till the end of time - OCD almost 🤔
