Yes, #Fedilab has some differences between its Google Play version and its #FDroid version.
There are mostly due to restrictions from Google.

In the Google app we had to remove:

- Donation links
- Register an account on Mastodon (as they don't want to understand that the app doesn't collect emails).
- Filter some search results with #Peertube to exclude "YouTube Downloader" videos

To Google users, keep in mind you can easily switch to FDroid, we would be happy to help if you have questions

#Fedilab supports the quoting mechanism for long with some softwares that introduced it.
This option is currently hidden in "Extra features" from Settings.

We opened it to #Mastodon in timelines (ie: messages containing quotes), but it is not yet possible to post quoted messages with Mastodon.

Also Mastodon seems to have introduced a degree of privacy. The API returns if the OP accepted to be quoted.
Fedilab already supports this privacy parameter by displaying only accepted quotes.

With #Fedilab, you can customize how timelines are displayed in the app.
For that just open "Main menu > Manage timelines".
You will be able to reorder your timelines by moving items. Hide a timeline by tapping on the eye icon. All timelines can be removed excepted default ones that can only be hidden.
Also, by tapping on the "+" button at the top right, you will be able to follow remote instances (and also Twitter accounts through #Nitter). #FedilabTips

Fedilab continues to surprise me with features that I missed. Open a profile and go to 'Media'. This gives you a great view of all the media on the account—only media, no text. One tap opens the media, as expected. What I didn't know is that tapping and holding brings you to the corresponding post. :floofHappy:

Hi @apps 👋

Is it in #fedilab somehow possible to have lists moved into the "..." menu (Interface -> Timelines in a list) while not being visible as "timeline" in the top bar (Manage timelines -> hide lists)?

I want to be able to access lists as easy as possible without them cluttering up the interface... 🤔

Tomorrow, we should be able to release #Fedilab 3.34.0 in production.

This release comes with the fix of two old annoying bugs:

- Selection of the text that stops working when composing
- Crashes when the fit preview image feature is enabled.

It will also fix a recent crash with conversations.

It will add the quoting support for Mastodon and also improve the experience with highlighted hashtags.

Three dots button menu will now be displayed for remote messages.
