I literally created a PR including those two options earlier today and I think it got merged into main a couple of hours ago.
My guess is it’ll be available in the next release but I don’t really have any control over that.
Edit: Good news, 0.23.0 is out now and it includes the settings 👌
Yeah, no prob, I’m running my own instance anyway and I understand this is not really a priority.
Also I’m seeing some linting issues so I’ll fix that first then re submit it.
I agree, liking this project a lot so far.
I actually started developing a lemmy client in my spare time a few weeks back (got authentication done, posts browsing/detail and commenting) but dropped it when I saw this project.
There’s also a lot of apps being worked on right now so that helped me decide. Back when I started there were only two and I didn’t really like either of them, I wanted something like Apollo.
I honestly prefer the PWA approach in this particular case and I rather contribute occasionally to this project than keep building and mantaining mine and dealing with the (small) headaches of publishing to each store.
PD: Just pushed a small PR to the main branch adding some appearance settings for compact view, not sure if it’ll ever get merged to the project but it’s there.

The web is okay, kind of, but the mobile apps (what I mainly use to browse this stuff) are sorely lacking, especially on iOS.
I decided to write my own client (mostly for myself) and so far the API seems very straightforward. Might eventually publish it to the stores, if its mature enough.
It’s heavily based on Apollo (in case it wasn’t obvious). One might even call it a rip-off 😅
What I’d really like to work on after the basic navigation is done is discoverability. I think the platform really needs some improvement there.
Another guy leaving Reddit here…
I’ve been looking into the platform the last few days and kinda like the idea of it, but I mainly browse these stuff through my phone and there are not many apps (let alone any mature ones, especially on iOS).
Mlem looks good but is really basic right now.
So I decided last night I’m going to give it a try and work on a Lemmy client app in my spare time. Mainly as a coding exercise but mostly because I really want a proper app for this.
I built this in a few hours and so far the API seems pretty straightforward so I’m cautiously optimistic about it.
Heavily inspired by Apollo, as you can see 😅
