FAQ

When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.

I have been trying for days to log in. No matter what I do, I keep getting could not connect to [server]. I tried for days and it didn't work.

Then I realized. I have a password manager installed, and I let it pick its longest password length (100 characters). I reduced it to 32 characters, and my login immediately worked.

Lemmy itself supports huge passwords, but it seems as if mlem does not. I do not know how long your password can be before mlem pukes on its own shoes, but it's somewhere between 32-100 haha.

I mean there needs to be a limit, because hashing a password is, by design, resource intensive. Also, Lemmy uses bcrypt for password hashing which supports up to 72 bytes, so the limit can't be any higher than that. It should probably be indicated somewhere though, I agree. I was also caught off guard by it but realistically 60 characters is more than enough... it's more entropy than the hash you get out of it, if it's random.
