The app鈥檚 looking great, but I鈥檝e got a couple of questions:
-
What is the difference between the three options within Settings > Feed Defaults > View. There鈥檚 Threads, Microblog and Timeline options, but I can鈥檛 see what effect they have on the feed.
-
When viewing comments, some replies are shown and nested, but others require tapping Open x replies. What determines whether a reply is shown automatically or needs a tap to open?

That sets the default Feed View for when you鈥檙e on an Mbin account. Mbin has options to view threads (the Lemmy side of the fediverse), microblogs (the Mastodon side of the fediverse), and timeline (combined threads and microblogs), whereas Lemmy and PieFed don鈥檛 have microblog support, only threads.
When viewing comments, some replies are shown and nested, but others require tapping Open x replies. What determines whether a reply is shown automatically or needs a tap to open?
That鈥檚 totally dependent on the API鈥檚 response. If Interstellar sees the API returned a comment that has X listed as the number of children, but the API didn鈥檛 actually return those children, then it displays the Open X replies button.
Nice one, thanks for the response.
