@samhenrigold Hi Sam,
I have two questions/complaints.
the first is that I can't turn off the 'new posts' button (screenshot attached) which feels ro me like something stuck on the screen. I don't find it helpful or desirable to know there are new posts when i'm intentionally scrolling backwards in time.
second, I don't know how to view the public timeline. this is fairly easy on Tusky, Pixelfed, and Pixeldroid among others. am I missing something or is it not included? Android - v2.8.0 (125)

1. You can swipe it up to dismiss it. There's not a way to permanently dismiss it
2. We don't offer the public (federated) timeline in any of our client apps. We think it's noisy with very little signal and, in our testing, really freaked out new users. Since the goal of this app is to make Mastodon as accessible as possible, it was an intentional omission.
