Hey!

Like always: thank you for working on my favorite app for lemmy. The constant updates and general polish of features are really great!

Now on to the problem:

Since this morning (I guess after an update?) summit refused to start up - when I tried to open the app, it just instantly crashed. I read in another thread that if you delete all data (via the Android options), you could use the app again. So I tried that, signed on my accounts and tuned the setting - just for summit to continue crashing whenever I click on a post.

If there is anything I can do to provide some insight into these crashes (not very technically versed), please instruct me on what to do. :)

Edit: just tried a bit more. Pictures enlarge like normal when clicked on them. Links also open in the internal browser just fine.

It's when I try to open a post into the post/comment view, that summit crashes. Hope this helps narrow it down!

I think I'm having the same issue. I can delete all app data to resolve it, but when I log in and start changing settings it will crash either when opening a post or just opening the app.

I can specifically recreate it by deleting all data, opening Summit, logging in, going into settings and setting the post gesture size to 0.75, then trying to click on a post.

Damn, sounds rough. I mean, nothing against the basic layout, but I really like the options summit provides for customizing your user experience.

I hope this doesn't take too much effort for the dev to fix!
