Don't forget to unpin the previous release and pin this one !

Loving it so far, I'll probably be back with more feedback after testing but so far the one change that's weirding me out a bit is the new collapse only collapsing the parent comment. For some long comments it was very handy to collapse them and have a one line preview. Maybe a compromise with a pixel height would could work ? I just had a comment with a screenshot bigger than my screen and was sad when I clicked on it and still had to scroll the full length.

New settings are great <3 Great work !

Hey! Thanks for the quick feedback! I think for this, there's different opinions on how it should be handled.

I think the best solution to this would be to just add in a setting which allows you to switch between the two methods of collapsing :D Feel free to open up a issue on GitHub for this!

You got it boss ;)

I would disagree with the commenter above. Collapsing all comments except for the one you click on is intuitive behaviour for me as a user of the Relay app for years, and I think this is how most Reddit apps work.

So yes I think it would be best to have a toggle setting 👍
