Hello its me again bringing another pre-release of Thunder for v0.2.1+11! (if all things go accordingly and I don't mess up TestFlight builds again)
Just an update: I'll have a bit less time this week to work on Thunder, so updates may take a bit longer than before.
Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly.
For things to test out, I would suggest:
- general testing of app overall, vote, reply, comment, share, etc.
- testing and changing custom swipe actions
- scrolling through long comment threads to check for any stuttering or performance issues
- changing all of the settings in the setting pages and see if they are all being applied correctly
Without further ado, these are the changes from the last pre-release:
- Post duplicates are now filtered from the feed - contribution from @ajsosa
- Fixed issue with haptic feedback when attempting to edit your own comment
- Fixed issue where you could not edit your comment in some instances when using your display name
- Fixed issue where commenting would bring you out of the post
- Fixed issue where longer comment threads would not show up properly
- Increased NSFW blur - contribution from @guigs4
- Slight changes to contrast of text in posts - contribution from @Fmstrat
- Added tooltip labels on sort types - contribution from @micahmo
- Added comment sorting - contribution from @guigs4
- Added option to show title before content - contribution from @Fmstrat
- Added option to show images edge-to-edge - contribution from @Fmstrat
- Addition of manual refresh icons to different screens - contribution from @bactaholic
- Adjusted font scaling to match closer to defaults, and applied font scaling to more places
- Fixed issue with talkback on posts not applying properly
and probably a whole bunch of other under-the-hood changes I forgot to note down

I think this pre-release cycle is getting close to becoming a full alpha release soon. There’s still a few bugs present that I would like to squash first, and also a couple of minor things:
I’m aiming to have the next alpha be released on Saturday if everything goes according to plan!
Heck yeah! Blocking functionality will be amazing, that's really the only big thing I still use Jerboa for at the moment, along with being able to insert screenshots into comments. Huge strides in the last few weeks, what a whirlwind!
