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

Absolutely love how you listen to so much of our feedback. This app is truly built for the people haha.
Are you planning to open source it at all?
Also, I’ve noticed that the about community and instance pages either don’t show the user metrics or just show some of the user metrics and not all of them anymore since this update. Not sure if it’s a bug or intentional.
I am also wondering this myself. I don’t fault anyone for not, but may have an impact on my long term commitment with where my interest in this space is.
Also latest updates seemed to fix the issue with fold type phones.
