Hey, here is the final update for 06/24. Below is a list of all changes that were made:

  • Performance enhancements. Button presses should no longer have a delay.
  • Preloading of images. You shouldn’t see nearly as much delay between images loading while scrolling unless you’re on a potato connection in the middle of the ocean.
  • Non-markdowned links should take you to the appropriate places. If someone posts /c/[email protected], it will be linked to the community.
  • User profile links now take you to the user profile.
  • Fixed a crash on first login.
  • Fixed NaN error whenever replying to a post or comment.
  • Image modal is highly improved. It should be significantly faster to swipe around and should be much easier to dismiss with a swipe.
  • Most images will now take up the full space. There appear to be a few issues with this from early reports and I’ll look into them more tomorrow.
  • Haptic feedback is fixed when replying to comments.
  • Fixed issue where video audio would continue playing in the background after closing the browser.
  • Fixed issue where accounts would be reset if you made a bookmark.
  • Fixed comments not collapsing at times.
  • Adjusted themes. This is a work in progress. If there are any issues here let me know and we will address them (color theme is slightly change, but will be improved upon. We are getting ready to allow users to submit their own themes to have added into the app. We will let you know whenever this is available and how to submit your themes on GitHub)
  • User profile page has been redesigned. This will be more full-feature in the coming day or so, including saved posts, upvoted posts, and recent history. Right now, only 50 comments and 50 posts will load. This will be converted to infinite scroll shortly.
  • On that note, OTHER users profiles will be converted to this view tomorrow.
  • Font should be larger now and SHOULD scale appropriately regardless of device. If you are having issues with really terrible font sizes, please reach out and we’ll look into it.

Big thanks to ALL of you for your continued feedback and support through this development process. You guys make this enjoyable.

I’ve been super focused on making sure that performance is a top priority in the app. I test on lower end devices to make sure things run smoothly, and I’ve already ironed out a couple of issues that lead to poorer performance. Please let me know if you experience anything at all that seems slugish or slow.

Also, expect a bit of a treat in the next update :)

Until next time, Happy scrolling!
