With Mastodon’s popularity I think it’d be really cool to see someone pull off an all SwiftUI Mastodon client. A timeline with inline media, and a rich media viewer would be the standout things to me.

(This isn’t a snark tweet, I’d really love to see it! Seems like a core app type I haven’t seen yet in SwiftUI.)

@christianselig oh great it would appear that mastodon mobile is horrible at uploading video

@ethanrdoesmc Wow! Nicely done! That's a solid start

@christianselig if only it has a backend :P btw do you know an elegant way to make sure the Text doesn’t move the image next to it when going from 0->1? my current solution is to have a zstack with the counter AND an invisible text view that has the same number of digits as the counter, but they’re all set to zero, so the frame stays consistent.

@ethanrdoesmc Yeah, use the monospacedDigit option, it's basically a monospaced font but only applies to digits, everything else looks normal, so it doesn't have that "monospaced font" look.

(to be clear, the video I posted was from before I implemented that little hack)
