New

  • General Lemmy support, including account login, feed view, voting, commenting, viewing communities, viewing user profiles, searching, and more. The main features not included in this release are viewing notifications, viewing/interacting with direct messages, and creating new posts. Thanks @jwr1 and @olorin99.
  • Support for editing your user profile, including the about and uploading a new profile avatar and banner; thanks @olorin99.
  • Huge improvements to the user screen, including being able to view a user's threads, microblogs, comments, replies, follows, and followers; thanks @olorin99.
  • A new user/magazine mention feature; if a user/magazine mention is detected in markdown, it tries to fetch the corresponding avatar and name and allows you to click to view the user/magazine page if available.
  • Support for blocking users, magazines, and domains.
  • Support for reporting posts and comments.
  • Show a copy button on the open link dialog.
  • Show an option for posts and comments to open them in a browser.
  • Add local filter to magazines explore.

Fixes

  • Add post/comment deletion confirmation.
  • Fix account list sorting to go by host, then the local name.
  • Fix the coloring for the subscribe button so it's easier to tell when you're subscribed or not.
  • Hide the error snack bar for several common errors, including render layout issues and image loading issues.
  • Fix empty search error from the search screen.

Just as a side note, those who have the app previously installed will need to re-signin into their accounts and might need to clear their app data if the app doesn't start up, as a few changes have been made with the way accounts are stored.

hiding the sub, mod, fav, and all tabs could be an option to put in the settings.

That would be perfect.

As for the bottom portion, I feel that it's necessary to keep

Can you keep the bottom portion, but provide an option to show either a) icons only b) text only c) both

If you meant always show the instance of a user/magazine (instead of replacing it with an "@" button), I've also thought of adding that as an option in the settings.

Yeah it is just a tap, but it adds up when I am browsing many posts. It would be great if you can add the option.

the swipe gestures on the screens with tabs

This could be useful, but I find it overly sensitive (i.e. it switches tab when I try to scroll up/down).

Once again, thanks for developing Interstellar and making it open source.

Thanks for the feedback; I'll see what I can do.

All of these (except tab swipe disable) are now options in the latest update! Let me know if you'd like anything else added.
