Oh hey look, its another release around the corner! This release adds in OLED dark mode, initial inbox features, better accessibility, compact mode, and improvements to a whole bunch of things too long to post here.

Obligatory message: If there are any developers out there who want to contribute to this project, that would be greatly appreciated!

Update: A hotfix has been released to fix some initial issues with the release: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/releases/tag/v0.2.1%2B7

To see the full details of this release, check out the GitHub release announcement: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/releases/tag/v0.2.1%2B6

For those on TestFlight, the update should automatically install on your device. For those who obtained the app through IzzyOnDroid, that update should eventually reach your devices!

There is also a discussion page here for any general discussions about this release if anyone is interested: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/discussions/67

It has been incredible to see all the community support and feedback from the last release! Let's continue this and make Thunder an even better experience :D

Curious, how many posts are loaded in a single API call? Jerboa seems to only request 10 which makes scrolling lag as it constantly has to wait for more to load

It requests 15 post everytime at the moment! However, I think a bit more tweaking around there might be possible

For example, maybe loading 10 on the first call so that the initial posts load up faster, and then switch to 15 after the fact. Or, it could load x amount depending on the type of view (maybe less for larger views as it takes up much more of the screen size, and more for compact views so that you see less loading when you scroll down)
