This is the third pre-release for Thunder v0.2.1+14! This version focuses on small changes and fixes to existing issues, and hopefully improves performance on the feed page. The upcoming pre-releases will be focused on fixing issues introduced with the previous releases, and stability. There will most likely not be any new major features added in.

Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly.

These are the changes since the last pre-release:

  • Fixed issue where compact feed would not load properly when "Enable Link Preview" setting was turned on
  • Text scaling now respects system's font scaling. Text scaling is based off of the system font
  • Fixed semantic issue where user comments would read the improper value for downvotes
  • Fixed issue where you could not vote/save comments in quick succession
  • Fixed issue where expanded FAB would not take focus when using voice over/ talkback - contribution from @micahmo
  • Improved contrast on user chips and badges - contribution from @CTalvio
  • Fix long press on post FAB - contribution from @micahmo
  • Fix improper back button handling - contribution from @micahmo
  • Fixed feed page reaching the end in some cases where NSFW content is turned on
  • Fixed inbox badge not refreshing on account change
  • Improved contrast between link and image post icons - contribution from @tom-james-watson
  • "Show external link previews" option is now "scrape missing external link previews" and off by default for performance reasons - contribution from @ajsosa
  • Fixed issue where external link thumbnails weren't being displayed due to show external link previews option being off which was only intended to prevent html scraping - contribution from @ajsosa
  • Added semantic label for upload image - contribution from @micahmo
  • Added semantic labels for FAB actions - contribution from @micahmo

Great pre-release. Working very well for me.

Edit: i would change "scrape missing external link previews to " get external link previews" because most normal users are unlikely to know what the term scraping is for.
