Hello its me again bringing another pre-release of Thunder for v0.2.1+11! (if all things go accordingly and I don't mess up TestFlight builds again)

Just an update: I'll have a bit less time this week to work on Thunder, so updates may take a bit longer than before.

Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly.

For things to test out, I would suggest:

  • general testing of app overall, vote, reply, comment, share, etc.
  • testing and changing custom swipe actions
  • scrolling through long comment threads to check for any stuttering or performance issues
  • changing all of the settings in the setting pages and see if they are all being applied correctly

Without further ado, these are the changes from the last pre-release:

  • Post duplicates are now filtered from the feed - contribution from @ajsosa
  • Fixed issue with haptic feedback when attempting to edit your own comment
  • Fixed issue where you could not edit your comment in some instances when using your display name
  • Fixed issue where commenting would bring you out of the post
  • Fixed issue where longer comment threads would not show up properly
  • Increased NSFW blur - contribution from @guigs4
  • Slight changes to contrast of text in posts - contribution from @Fmstrat
  • Added tooltip labels on sort types - contribution from @micahmo
  • Added comment sorting - contribution from @guigs4
  • Added option to show title before content - contribution from @Fmstrat
  • Added option to show images edge-to-edge - contribution from @Fmstrat
  • Addition of manual refresh icons to different screens - contribution from @bactaholic
  • Adjusted font scaling to match closer to defaults, and applied font scaling to more places
  • Fixed issue with talkback on posts not applying properly

and probably a whole bunch of other under-the-hood changes I forgot to note down

If you want to see all the full changes since v0.2.1+10 (its a long one): https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/blob/962a089f5ff48d24b76ad67f76aeef34b3f1a123/CHANGELOG.md
