This is the first pre-release for Thunder v0.2.7! This pre-release version introduces quite a few new features and improvements, as well as usual bug fixes.
Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly.
Please see below for the full changelog since the last general release. For those on TestFlight, you will receive the pre-release update once it has been approved by Apple.
Some notable changes to test out:
- Ability to edit posts and set the post language. You can now edit your own posts and change the post language! This is relatively new so please mention any issues related to this change.
- Reorganization of the settings page, with post and comment previews. You can now see a preview of your post and comment settings without having to leave the settings page. The post and comment options have been moved to Settings -> Appearance -> Posts/Comments.
- Searching for comments within a post. You can now trigger a search within a given post to find specific comments. This only searches for comments that have already been loaded in at this time.
- Under-the-hood migrations for system text scaling. You may notice slight changes in the text size from the previous version. If there are any issues (such as too large or too small font sizes), please open up a new issue on GitHub with more information.
- And much more listed below!
Thanks again for sticking around, and please mention any bugs and issues that you encounter when using this version!
