Zoom zoom zoom, new update incoming and Happy (late) Canada Day for my fellow Canadians out there (if there are any out there ๐Ÿ‘€) ๐ŸŽ‰

I know I skipped v0.2.1+9 - this was because a build failed for TestFlight, which upped the version from v0.2.1+9 -> v0.2.1+10

This update was mainly focused on improving overall performance for Thunder - you should hopefully see less lag as you scroll down your favourite feed or community!

In addition to that, a few new major additions have been added, including the ability to view a user's profile, a revamped account page (for posts, comments, and saved posts), editing of comments, ability to download images and of course, more quality of life improvements to make your experience even better!

This release has a lot of under-the-hood changes, so its expected that bugs may show up that were previously not there. Please open up a GitHub issue if you find any of those!

Obligatory message: If there are any developers out there who want to contribute to this project, that would be greatly appreciated!

To see the full details of this release, check out the GitHub release announcement: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/releases/tag/v0.2.1%2B10

For those on TestFlight, the update should automatically install on your device. For those who obtained the app through IzzyOnDroid, that update should eventually reach your devices!

There is also a discussion page here for any general discussions about this release if anyone is interested: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/discussions/167

Thanks for reading this far, here's a cookie ๐Ÿช

Also, if you are interested in becoming a moderator for this community, feel free to reach out to me. This community is growing incredibly fast and it's getting hard for me to handle all this by myself

The update doesn't show in the app as a banner for me, but I will install it anyway. I will edit this comment once I have installed it to test.

Edit: I can edit stuff, also it's really good that you can now see profiles.

Edit 2: you should be able to view a profile from the comments, and I think the user should be shown on posts.

Hmm interesting - Thunder should be checking for new updates when you first launch the app. There couldโ€™ve been a connection issue when checking for updates which may have caused this

you should be able to view a profile from the comments

Good idea, could you just make an issue for it on GitHub? Thanks!

I think the user should be shown on posts.

The user is shown at the top of the post under the title! Unless you mean something else?
