@samhenrigold Sounds nice, might test, but I'm missing an important feature here: reverse timeline. That is, timeline in real chronological order. As far as I can see the only Android app offering this at the moment is @pachli

@kallekn meaning the first post is at the bottom?

@samhenrigold The last, newest post is at the bottom. For us who like to read stuff in natural chronological order and not backwards. Some Twitter clients had this feature, and at least one of the iOS Mastodon clients. And #pachli .

@kallekn I wouldn't hold your breath for this, I don't think we're likely to implement this.

The default state for Mastodon (and virtually every list interface in UI design) is to have it scrolled to the top. And when the oldest, stalest post is at the top by default, there's not much value in seeing the same post at the top every single time you re-launch the app. It also just introduces a ton of weirdness around our infinite scrolling mechanisms, timeline positions, etc.

@samhenrigold For me, the default state is to have it scrolled to where I last was. Even if I relaunch the app. Works reasonably well in @pachli , I'm happy to report.
