There will most likely not be any more additions of features for the next release, just bug fixes for large bugs. I would like to give a huge shoutout to everyone that has been working on PRs for this upcoming release, it has been incredible. This includes but is not limited to @bactaholic, @micahmo, @Fmstrat, @CTalvio, @ajsosa, @guigs4, @coslu, @minicit! Please let me know if I have missed anyone :D

Another note: I have created a Matrix space for Thunder for anyone who wants to have general chat there or to get replies even faster. The link to it is here: https://matrix.to/#/#thunderapp:matrix.org

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:

  • Test out everything you possibly can. Place heavy focus on general and most common actions (upvote, downvote, save, reply, comment, creating posts, etc)
  • Look around for any issues with performance overall, or things that seem like they require an immediate fix

Without further ado, these are the changes from the last pre-release:

  • Added initial way to block communities from the long press menu on posts. Long press a post in the feed page to show an option to block a community. Currently there is no way to unblock a blocked community, but that will come in a future release
  • Added a whole bunch of UI tweaks and changes to post page, and in other places - contribution from @CTalvio
  • Addition of community and user banners - contribution from @CTalvio
  • Added pull to refresh to a few more pages - contribution from @bactaholic
  • Showing collapsed comment count - contribution from @micahmo
  • Sharing media directly as images - contribution from @michahmo

…and probably a whole bunch of other under-the-hood changes I forgot to note down 😅

    I would also like to know if there are still issues with the ability to edit your own comments. If you find that you can’t edit your own comments, please let me know the following:

    • Are you using a display name, or just your username?
    • Are you logging in via username or email?
    • Have you tried clearing the app data, uninstalling the app, and then re-installing the app? Did that resolve your issues?
