This is a pretty big release so I will roll this release out slowly.

The bulk of the release changes how actions work internally in the app. Actions are anything that a user performs that directly causes a change. Eg. creating a post or comment.

Changes to user actions were made to address an issue of the app. In the old version of the app, create post and create comment actions would be retried on network error. This caused issues where duplicate posts and comments can be created. To address this issue posts and comments will no longer be retried on error. Instead users will be given the option to retry these actions manually.

To facilitate these changes, the release refreshes the UI for the user actions screen and adds a shortcut on the "You" screen. It adds an additional details screen that can be seen by tapping any actions in the user actions screen. This new details screen allows users to retry/rerun an action or delete an action.

This release also continues to iterate on the "hide duplicate posts" feature introduced previously. This feature is still considered experimental as I anticipate further changes are necessary to make it usable.

This release also include many bug fixes and smaller user requests. See below for details.

Pulled in all the latest translations. Releasing as v1.53.1.

Update 2

There was a change planned that was supposed to go out with this release but I forgot about it. I'm enabling it and releasing as v1.53.2.

The change is a QoL for the inbox screen. It felt awkward to see a notification for something new in your inbox, open the app, already be on the inbox screen but then have to manually refresh to see the new item. The change will cause the inbox screen to automatically fetch updates when certain conditions are met which should mean you will need to manually refresh less,

• Changed inbox screen to automatically update more frequently.
