Hi all - I’m a several-times-a-day Thunder user and really enjoy the app. It’s steadily evolving and improving which is awesome to see and I really appreciate the efforts of the dev team.
One thing that I think is missing is the ability to send and respond to DM’s. Is that accurate (or am I just incompetent) and if so, is there an accepted alternative for handling DM’s?
You can certainly reply to them when they appear in the “messages” section of the inbox.
I don’t know about composing and sending them though…
Hey there, thanks for the kind words!
You’re right - at this time, there’s no way to create or reply to private messages just yet. This is something I want to introduce but I’m just currently backed up with other (not as fun but arguably more important) tasks like preparing Thunder for the upcoming Lemmy API changes and app stability/performance improvements 😅
Given that this has been requested a few times already, I might be able to implement a quick version of this just to have it as an option!
