Hi, happy long weekend everyone! Hope everyone is having a good day so far. I’ve been listening to feedback and made a couple changes in 1.0.46. I added an about page for instances with a “Browse as guest” button. Fixed some issues with the link handler, and improved the experience of replying to long comments.

Changelog:

  • Fixed replying to long comments.
  • Made the comment and post create input fields more performant, hopefully fixed a flickering keyboard issue
  • Preloads images on post lists so image jump-in should be reduced
  • Added unsubscribe button to subscriptions list
  • Added about community button to all communities in the drawer
  • Added about instance button to all communities in the drawer and the top right menu.
  • Improved the link follower in some cases to better detect posts and communities.
  • If a post cannot be loaded on the local instance, attempt to view it on the foreign instance
  • Added setting for adding dividers between top comments and between all comments
  • Added setting for always displaying the comment bar
  • Changed the app icon to something a bit more material design-y
  • Added setting for even larger comment text size

    Is Card View broken, or was there an intentional change?

    Card View used to have a nice, grey box that surrounded each post.

    Now it’s almost indistinguishable from Fullwidth. No grey box, same divider lines as Fullwidth. Card View just has image previews chopped to a specific height.

      Sounds like a bug. I’ll check it out and have it fixed in the next release! Thank you.

        I see you already pushed an update to address this.

        If the cards are going to be in a grey box container, they don’t need the divider that was added in this release I think.

        I asked about the divider on the last release thread because I thought removing the grey boxes was intentional 😬😅

        Thank you for all the work you’re putting into it!
