With the PieFed API support having been enabled for about a week now, a lot of you have been trying Interstellar for the first time.

What do you feel is missing? What is the feature you would like added most? What pain points do you run into? Also, feel free to include what you already like about the app.

This is no guarantee, btw, I just want to get some feedback from y’all and hopefully we can find some points of improvement.

Lastly, there are a lot of PieFed specific features that are not supported by the API, and we obviously wouldn’t be able to add support to Interstellar until they are in the API. We can still discuss them here if you’d like. Those features include Feeds, Topics, Polls, Flairs, Tags, admin/mod tools, and probably more.

    Thanks for this thread! It’s decent, a solid app and I like it. It’s just a bit fiddly to use, and text on it is small. Jerboa has larger text which helps cos I’m neurodiverse. It would be better if searching had more sort options, and sometimes I can’t find things.

      Feel free to bump up the “Global text scale” option in Display settings a notch or two; that might help.

      I’ll see what we can do, but we might already be using all the sort options available by the PieFed API.

        Thanks for your patience with me! I’m an old lady with tech. BTW it’s a massive help having background blue when I’m writing comments, white isn’t good for neurodiversity. So thanks for making it not white!
