v0.2.9-1 Pre-release
Pre-release

This is the first pre-release for Thunder v0.2.9! This pre-release version introduces quite a few new features and improvements, as well as usual bug fixes.

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

Please see below for the full changelog 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:

  • Thunder now has support for high-refresh displays on Android. This should improve the user experience for those with high refresh displays. However, do keep in mind that this may potentially increase battery usage for those devices. If you encounter any issues, please create a new issue on GitHub.
  • Initial support for spoiler tags have been added. Whenever there is a spoiler tag, Thunder will display it as expandable content within the post body or comment. This initial support should catch most cases, but there may be some edge cases where spoilers still show up.
  • A whole bunch of small UI/UX improvements across the board. Ability to create cross-posts, share user profiles, changes to account selector, and more!

Thanks again for sticking around, and please mention any bugs and issues that you encounter when using this version!

Hi everyone and happy new year! It's finally time for another Thunder release. As always, there have been many improvements, additions, changes and fixes in this release which should make for a even better Thunder experience. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to discuss it in the Thunder community or on GitHub.

A quick reminder: if you are using the Google Play version or App Store version, please note that it may take a bit of time before you receive the update. Now onto the update notes. This update brings a few major features:

🎉 Features

  • You can now edit your own posts, and set the appropriate language for your post. When you open your own post, you will see a pencil icon which will allow you to edit your post along with the language.
  • The Settings page has been overhauled and re-organized, with post and comment previews for certain visual settings. This should hopefully provide a better overall experience for adjusting and customizing your settings.
  • You can now set Thunder's app language to any of currently available translations. Please note that the translations are not fully complete, and you may encounter untranslated content.
  • Additional settings have been added in which sync up with your Lemmy account. This includes showing/hiding read posts, showing/hiding scores, and showing/hiding bot accounts.
  • There is now a Safari extension which allows you to open Lemmy links within Thunder for iOS users. This extension is disabled by default, but can be enabled in the system settings under Safari -> Extensions.
  • Favoriting communities is now available. When you favorite a community, it will be prioritized throughout the app (in the drawer, search results, etc.)
  • Keyword filters are now available in the Settings page. Adding keywords will filter any posts whose title or body containing one or more keywords.
  • Many quality-of-life improvements including collapsible post bodies, more community translations, addition of more sort types, improved search filters.

⚙️ Performance

  • Improved general loading times when starting up Thunder. This should result in some drastic improvements for certain instances.
  • Updated many under-the-hood dependencies.

And much much more. I can't go through all the changes in the changelog, but for those who are curious, feel free to check out the full changelog below.

v0.2.7-5 Pre-release
Pre-release

This is the fifth pre-release for Thunder v0.2.7! This pre-release version focuses on adding the ability to favorite communities in the sidebar, keyword filters, and a lot of other small quality of life improvements. There will likely not be any more large features being added in after this pre-release as I prepare this for general availability soon.

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

Some notable changes to test out:

v0.2.7-1 Pre-release
Pre-release

This is the first pre-release for Thunder v0.2.7! This pre-release version introduces quite a few new features and improvements, as well as usual bug fixes.

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

Please see below for the full changelog 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:

  • Ability to edit posts and set the post language. You can now edit your own posts and change the post language! This is relatively new so please mention any issues related to this change.
  • Reorganization of the settings page, with post and comment previews. You can now see a preview of your post and comment settings without having to leave the settings page. The post and comment options have been moved to Settings -> Appearance -> Posts/Comments.
  • Searching for comments within a post. You can now trigger a search within a given post to find specific comments. This only searches for comments that have already been loaded in at this time.
  • Under-the-hood migrations for system text scaling. You may notice slight changes in the text size from the previous version. If there are any issues (such as too large or too small font sizes), please open up a new issue on GitHub with more information.
  • And much more listed below!

Thanks again for sticking around, and please mention any bugs and issues that you encounter when using this version!

Hey everyone! The upcoming update is a minor update which fixes some of the issues that were introduced in v0.2.5.

If you are using the Google Play version or App Store version, please note that it may take a bit of time before you receive the update. Now onto the update notes. This is mainly a hot-fix update to address the following issues:

General

  • Fixed some issues revolving around markdown links not rendering properly (duplicated text, missing links, etc.)
  • Fixed an issue where the comment text scaling setting was not being applied properly
  • Fixed an issue where logging into an account with 2FA enabled was not working
  • Added more compatibility with the latest Lemmy 0.19.x changes. Note that this is still not final and may break at any time as 0.19.x is still under development

We have a Matrix space if you would like to join in on discussions: https://matrix.to/#/#thunderapp:matrix.org
