Here's the first pre-release version of Thunder for the upcoming v0.2.1+9 release!

As always, this is a pre-release version so it is expected that there may be crashes or major bugs introduced.

More details about the pre-release version, changelog, and things to test are outlined in the pre-release notes!

Please comment in this post for any bugs or issues that you find while testing. Thanks!

Af first glance (like 5 minutes using it) it's really smooth in regards of scroll animation.

This version now allows you to download the images (as far as I used the previous version, couldn't download any image, or at least didn't find the option to do it). A future option could be share images directly to contacts..

Top bar did not hide when scrolling down, could be an option, as well as the bottom bar ..

For everything else, I really love the feeling and smoothness of the app.. Not laggy at all!

Edit: I really like the long press menu to share and go to community or user! Maybe share images could go there as well! Another thing is I could find the edit comment button..

Working great for me, can see the image download button and long press on post send to work fine

Working well as well mostly. Occasionally having posts not load with a timeout issue, but could be because of lemmy.world? I really like the long press options, it's very handy.

[–] darklightxi 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That’s mostly just the instance being slow, I’m not sure if there’s anything I do really do to fix that 😅

[–] ge_generation 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, I thought it was a lemmy.world issue. Since ruud updated the server it's working fine.

Edit: I logged out and reset the cache since the server update and I'm having more issues with network. I noticed your note on the latest nightly though. Thanks for all your work.

Performance is good. It looks like there's an issue with upvoting sub comments. When I upvote a sub comment it instead upvotes the parent comment. I can keep upvoting and the counter for the parent comment keeps ticking up.

[–] darklightxi 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm, okay I’ll take a look at that! Thanks for pointing it out

[–] darklightxi 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

alright, i think i found the issue and it should be fixed in the next nightly release

[–] yads 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks for such a prompt turnaround

All the settings in post style dont update the toggle display and number dropdown thing display until you close and reopen the setting page.

[–] darklightxi 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Could you elaborate a bit more? I’m not too sure what you mean

[–] temmyno1 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Whenever you change a setting in the post style section for example enabling or disable rounded corners or setting post title size to a certain number, the change does take place but the value like the post title size changed from 16 to 23 still shows 16 in the dropdown, or the rounded corners toggle being switched from off to on shows it as off even when the rounded corners have been applied.

edit: you also cannot revert the change without closing and reopening the post styles page and then changing it.

my bad its been fixed in v0.10.3. the problem was occurring in v0.10.1

holy shit i was on the wrong app i am so fucking sorry. made a huge idiot of myself

[–] darklightxi 2 points 1 year ago

hahaha, thanks okay! no worries :D

Post refresh only appears to work when the post and/or post with comments is long enough to scroll down. Otherwise pull to refresh in a post appears not to work.
Edit: also, no haptics on post refresh

[–] darklightxi 1 points 1 year ago

Fixed the haptic feedback issue! The pull to refresh not working when the post isnt long enough will be a bit more tricky to figure out

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

With talkback posts are read like this "Pre-release: v0.2.1-alpha.1+9 0 1 1h Save"

That ending "save" should not be their

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Working well so far. Glad to see the new sort options.

[–] V4uban 1 points 1 year ago

Same here!

[–] darklightxi 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

One main thing to test for is for performance issues - try to scroll through posts and see if you notice any lag!
