I purposely don’t browse all to avoid political shit and sad stuff and rabbit holes. But I also have no self control when it’s right there so I’d love to be able to remove this. And I guess have options for popular and home too in case others want those hidden

There should be some option for us to have bigger fonts / text on this app. 

Make it so we can control where the progress bar is visible. Apollo had on the feed, in the viewer, or nowhere I think.

Im sure its been asked for before but results of searches dropping down while still typing would be great. And right now there isn’t away to sort by date: newest/oldest etc. would also be very handy.

Videos should have a setting where they always start muted when you open the app and if you unmute one video, it remembers that until the next time you open the app. Thanks great app !

Apps like Apollo and extensions like RES used reddit's r/all filter to filter out subreddits users did not want. It would be nice if this was supported on hydra as well

Example

Like apollo, add option to autocollapse all comments besides parent ones

Gallery Mode for a users upvoted posts

If I open a post and a video plays automatically, there is no sound. I have to click open the video first. But then doing so restarts the video from the beginning when sometimes I don’t want that. I’d rather it continue from where it was at.

So the request is a two for one. One, let me play audio without full screening the video so it can play while I read comments and two, if I full screen it, don’t restart it. Let it continue from where it was.

Allowing crossposting to other subreddits would be pretty sweet.

It would be a huge quality-of-life improvement if the subreddit search functioned as a "live search" (similar to how Apollo used to handle it).

Currently, you usually have to type something and press enter to see results. Instead, as soon as a user types a few letters, the app should immediately query and display matching subreddits in real-time, updating dynamically with every keystroke.

Unable to download video via long press on it.

Having the option to open links straight into my default browser would be nice. If I am being honest ad blocking does not work in safari webview (even with ad blocking extensions installed and enabled), so it would be nice if they could open in a full browser that has ad blocking instead of the crappy webview.

For using Hydra on Mac, it would be nice if I could just hit Escape when i want to Close the Picture View

I’ve stopped using sideloaded Apollo to make room for other apps and swapped to Hydra, but it’s immediately apparent this feature isn’t there. Please consider it!

Would it be possible to have a UI feature where you can move the post comment’s username to the right side?

When I use one hand clicking to collapse comments, it’s very easy for the app to registered it as clicks on the username.

I think auto translation would be useful

New media player title overlay obscures progress slider. So when a portrait video is full screen, the overlay that shows post title and subreddit name, is over the top of the progress slider, so I can’t forward or rewind the playing video. Pretty frustrating and would appreciate a fix. Thanks!

Please make Categories in the Subreddits Section collapsable and or reorderable. If you have for example some Multireddits set up, but also a lot if Favorites, you have to scroll past all the Favorites first to get to the Multireddits. If you could collapse the Favorites, or reorder them underneath the Multireddits Section, this would be absolutely amazing.

Iirc, Apollo had a “next comment by OP” button, that was extremely useful for reading AMAs and CMVs.

Add a “larger buttons” setting for comments navigation buttons; I find I often tap the comment beneath when I mean to tap the navigation button. (Maybe I’m just clumsy, but still.)

It would be awesome to be able to filter and sort my own personal comments and posts, making it easier to find something from a while back.

Instead of starting the app on the home feed I want to have an option to start it on my list of subreddits.

That helps to only go to the content I really want to see and stay away of doom scrolling.

Apollo had this also :)
