arguably a bigger update than v1.31, lots of backend changes for better speed

i've been using this command palette a lot because it makes doing everything so fast. let me know if there's any action or link you'd like added, since it's very easy to do.

What's Changed

  • feat: add a command palette by @Xyphyn in https://github.com/Xyphyn/photon/pull/364

    • Press / or ctrl + p or right click the photon logo to bring up the command palette
    • Instantly start typing to find a link, or run an action
  • design: Make compact mode even more compact

  • misc: add infinite scroll to communities too

  • code: rewrite how post feeds are handled, improving speed and cleanliness and allowing more opportunities for caching.

  • misc: add support for upvoted/downvoted posts and uploaded media in the profile page

  • strings: tweak some strings for better clarity

  • Vertical postlink layout for mobile by @sevonj in https://github.com/Xyphyn/photon/pull/360

That seems like a feature that could also improve accessibility. Maybe try running a screen reader and see how this keyboard driven quick access of features could be optimised for such useage scenarios.

Nice, you're really killing it with these features.
