This version addresses a bug introduced in a previous version. It prevented the preloading of content, causing images and links to appear after the content was already displayed. This resulted in poor performance while scrolling.
Action menus have been revamped with a grouped layout on compatible devices, and actions have been reorganized to ensure uniformity throughout the application.
In addition, the media viewer now enables users to select text in images, choose image subjects for stickers, and search for information on various topics such as animals, plants, and locations.
Full Changelog
- Added support for selecting text and image subjects from the media viewer
- Fixed an issue preventing prefetching optimizations from working. This resulted in a lot of media and link previews loading in after posts have already been displayed.
- Updated action menus with support for inline actions (requires iOS 16+)
- Updated action menu icons and order for consistency

I’m glad to hear that you’re enjoying Arctic so far!
In the Content Settings section, you’ll find two options for hiding read posts:
These settings are global for Arctic. However, I’m considering adding a quick toggle in post feeds to change these settings in individual feeds. If I recall correctly, I didn’t include a quick toggle initially due to an issue I encountered, but I’ll revisit it.
Recently, Lemmy added a new feature in version 0.19.6 that enables toggling this setting for individual feeds. I’ll look into integrating that as well, but I’d like to ensure compatibility with older Lemmy versions.
