- Added setting to change comment long press action
- Added option to hide nsfw in main feeds but not inside communities (note currently only applies to ‘hide’)
- Added sign up button on sign in page
- Added sticky sort (remembers changes to sort)
- Added community filters (filters posts from communities whose name matches a filter)
- Added setting to control notification time Interval (10S to 12H)
- Added share and hide to comment swipe actions
- Added release notes to app startup
- Added setting to control release notes
Fixed

I switch between them. Connect on phones, always, and on one specific tablet that’s set up for guests to use. We call it the toilet tablet lol.
On my tablets, I usually go with sync for the two column view with cards.
But connect has better theming options, particularly with the new color picker that lets you set your own background colors. That’s been my biggest complaint about sync for a while, that I can’t get a good contrast between cards and background. Makes it hard on my old eyes.
