This is the fourth pre-release for Thunder v0.2.9! This pre-release version introduces a few new features and improvements, as well as usual bug fixes. The next pre-releases will be mainly focused on fixing existing bugs that come up, and preparing for a general release. Please report any issues that you find!

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:

  • You can now customize the post metadata information (vote counts, comment counts, etc) on your feed! This can be done in Settings -> Appearance -> Compact/Card View Settings. Simply drag and drop the metadata information you want to see on your feed. The order of the information will be the order that you drag it into the preview.
  • Some moderator actions are now implemented including locking, featuring, and removing posts! To do this, you must be a moderator of a community. To access these actions, simply long-press on a post and select "Moderator Actions" from the menu.

That was fast! Thanks for looking into it. I haven't had the chance to re-install yet, so I might just wait for the hotfix.

A hotfix should now be available on TestFlight! Let me know if that version works

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

It works now! Glad I didn't re-install yet. I'll definitely export my settings now. Thanks!
