Just adding more user requests.

Full changelog

  • Add new option to never indicate whether a post is read or not. This change may reset your current read indicator setting.
  • Add "edit comment" comment quick action.
  • Add setting for "peek" function. When enabled, long pressing on an image will show a preview of the image. The preview closes if you let go. Can be found under Settings > Misc. Default: off.
  • Remove support for Android 5 and below. The new minimum Android version is 6 (API level 23).
  • Fix side panel staying locked if search is opened and closed.
  • Update dependencies.
  • Fix bug where a bunch of mark read action failures are logged each you switch accounts.
  • Fix gesture actions and gesture navigation conflicts.
  • Fix broken volume navigation in post screen.

Update

Kept finding bugs left and right so spent like 6 hours fixing every bug I encountered. I don't remember every bug I fixed so enjoy. If anyone finds any bugs let me know. Bug fixes will go out in v1.79.1.

Ok I went back and read through my commit so I can make a list of the fixes:

  • Made the mod log bottom sheet easier to dismiss by swiping.
  • Greatly improved the speed that the inbox screen loads
  • Fix a bug where the edit comment quick action will be disabled/enabled when it shouldn't be.
  • Fix a bug where when an image loads, the image will have a height of 0 for 1 frame causing a flicker.
  • Fix a bug where opening a post will sometimes cause the bottom nav to flicker in for 1 frame.
  • Fix a bug where sometimes AVIF images will be loaded at a much higher resolution then necessary.
  • Improve the loading spinner so that it waits a tiny bit before showing. This means that the loading spinner will not appear on screens that loads nearly instantly. This should be a slight UX improvement as it should decrease the frequency of you seeing the loading spinner for a frame and then disappearing.
  • Fix a bug where when you are using full layout and have a max height set, sometimes the text in the full layout will appear as if the text has been offset by a random amount.

Update 2

v1.79.2 release. More bug fixes:

  • Allow search field to be blank when doing a search. This is a valid search since sometimes you want to search for posts posted by a person a on community.
  • Fix a bug where the post is obscured by navigation rail when in "tablet" mode.
  • Fix a bug where back press on a post does not close the post in rare edge cases.

Update 3

v1.79.3

  • Add shortcut from image viewer to post button. Also add the option to image peeking.
  • Hide comment quick action if user is not allowed to modified the comment.
  • Fix a bug where the loading indicator doesn't hide sometimes.
  • Fix crashes.

Update 4

v1.79.4

  • Fix history tracking when "Swipe between posts" is enabled
  • Fix position not saved when app is killed and recreated when "Swipe between posts" is enabled
  • Fix more crashes.

Update 5

The last 2 versions were both attempting to fix a crash when "Swipe between posts" is enabled. However both attempts failed due to quirks in some code that is out of my control (it's in Google's code). After a lot of testing I think I finally have a fix.

v1.79.5

  • Finally fix a crash that can occur when "Swipe between posts" is enabled and the app is killed and restored a few times.
