New
- Support for Lemmy 0.19
- Lots and lots of refactoring cleaning up technical debt
- Added "Account settings" to replace "Lemmy Settings"
- This new section syncs up with your Lemmy account
- A few things will need updating such as your nsfw setting and sort
Changes
- Any action that fail now alerts the user via notification
- Show / hide NSFW has been moved to Settings > Account settings (this now respects your account choice)
- Sort has been moved to Settings > Account settings (this also now respects your account choice)
- Removed "mark posts as read" and "remember across devices" as Lemmy does this automatically

Bleh, now when was my last backup..?
it depends on where you store it if you've made any backup before. You can check it by try to create a new backup, or a new restore. the app will point to some folder.
The app is now crashing on startup so I can't even go into settings. I wonder if I could find the old apk online and install it?
try apkpure web, no malware found there as far as I know. Maybe you'll need to install the apkpure app to install the apk. if that so, make sure you uninstall it once done.
apkmirror is also OK. Check there first before apkpure.
Do downgrades work that way? I've only tried updating installed app with apk files, never downgrading. I'll report back if I try.
it may not work as the data may have been changed by the updated app. but, you'll be fine if you've made some backup. You can just delete all the data/cache and restore from the backup data after that. If haven't made any backup, there's no guarantee until you try.
