Developing this app has been one of the best development experiences I've had, and I feel very privileged and happy to have been able to contribute to Lemmy in this way. Nothing is more motivating than seeing so many people already enjoying the app and providing suggestions and feedback.

I really hope you enjoy Avelon, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about what everyone thinks. Keep the feedback coming!

Thank you, Sigve Rokenes

That's great to hear! I've been using a lot of different Lemmy apps lately as a lot have come out and I really enjoy this one. Good work so far. But this so far is one of the bigger annoyances. The reason being that SFSafariViewController allows Safari's enabled content blockers to work. The current web view does not and it's something I haven't been used to for a good while (browsing without some form of ad / annoyance blocking).
