This is the first pre-release for Thunder v0.2.5! This nightly adds a few new additions and changes to enhance your user experience. Furthermore, a lot of internal changes have been made to improve app stability and performance.
Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly.
Please check out the GitHub release page to obtain the full changelog of features 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:
- Feed page refactor - the logic powering the feed page has been completely re-written from the ground up to hopefully enable better performance and stability. As this is a major change to the underlying logic, there are bound to be issues that were missed during testing. If you notice any issues, please create a new issue on GitHub!
- Added ability to add/manage anonymous profiles. This allows you to create a profile under a given instance without having to log in.
- Added actions to post/comment long-press menu. This adds in vote and save actions to the long-press menu.
- Added support for community/person mentions when creating a new comment or post. To use this feature, simply tap on the
@or!actions located in the markdown section when creating a new post or comment.
The next pre-release versions from this point on will be mainly focused on fixing existing issues with the feed refactor, as well as introducing support for Lemmy 0.19.x.
Thanks again for sticking around, and please mention any bugs and issues that you encounter when using this version!
