the new version of the Android app 1.212 (446) sometimes is not showing title pictures. The old version does, so here are two screenshots to compare both versions with the same feed (and same server and same app-settings):
on my phone now but this is likely related to increased requirements for image width/height (I posted about this in the beta thread). It’s 300px now I think.
i tried subscribing to your first feed and the image didn’t even open in the article webview which is why i’m going to assume the publisher is being a dick somehow about user agents or w/e and file it as not my problem, sorry
i could be wrong but w/e
e: also i’m not sure but i think those are in enclosures and that might not be currently supported for flavor images
yeah i can just imagine the forum posts: the apparently highly important picture is shown on my phone but not on my tablet, what do, pls fix, also pls make this configurable preferably per-feed^Wper-article
e: tbh i would prefer if people said oh the gifs are playing now, cool stuff, but noooo :shakefist:
you’re in luck, there’s an option that does just that!
i agree that the image shouldn’t get blown up like that but i’ve looked it up and Glide up/downscaling is an obscure maze so i’m afraid you’ll have to endure, somehow, dealing with quote-unquote poor quality images from time to time.
even without considering functional gifs overall Glide is a colossal improvement over UIL (which is a dead library with multiple unresolved issues) so nothing is going to radically change on this front.
as usual if someone really wants to tackle this i promise to review the merge request.
Its true that the pics are blown-up in some feeds now. But this is much better than not showing pics. Just as an example:
In Flickr-feeds pics are shown now again (a bit blown-up). Before reverting back to 128px, pics have not been shown at all. Flickr is a photography-related website, so feeds without pictures would be extremely useless
