Welcome to v1.33.x.

This release is going to be a little different from the others.

While other releases are centered around big features or tasks, this release is centered around a large number of small changes.

Due to this, I am going to be breaking this release into multiple small point releases. The reasons for doing so are:

  1. Since this release doesn't hinge on any big task's completion, there is nothing stopping me from doing releases after completing a number of small tasks.
  2. Each change is aimed at improving the user experience. Thus getting these changes out as quickly as possible is important. There's no reason to prolong the end user's suffering from a less polished experience.

As always please feel free to provide any feedback/bug reports in the comments.

Full changelog

v1.33.5

  • Auto-clear notifications if user looks at inbox screen.
  • Updated the UI of the community info screen.
  • Fixed a bug where the FAB button would be in the wrong spot if the keyboard is opened and closed.
  • Fixed some minor bugs when searching for communities.
  • Fixed a bug where image previews are blurry.
  • Fixed some image viewer bugs.

v1.33.4

  • Mention suggestions. When creating a post or comment, mentions (starting with ! or @) will show suggestions based what is typed.
  • Changed long tap on an image in the post list to open the image options menu. Previously it would preview the image full screen. This change was made to make long tapping more consistent (long tapping things usually opens a context menu).
  • Image preview redesign. Move buttons to the bottom of the screen for easier access. Translucent UI. UI auto hides on zoom.
  • Fixed a bug with the layout "Large list" where images would be clipped on the sides.
  • Fixed a bug where tapping "Share image" will cause the share sheet to show up constantly.

v1.33.3

  • Rework the community options menu. Organized and updated the options shown.
  • Added subscribe/unsubscribe as an action to the community options menu & link menu (for communities).
  • Added a solid background color to community and profile icons so they don't look odd when placed in front of a banner.
  • Added undo button to save post/comment snackbar.
  • Fixed some snack bar layout issues.

v1.33.2

This is equivalent to release v1.33.1. It's unique to the Github release and was done to address a build issue.

v1.33.1

  • Fixed two rare-ish crashes.
  • Overhauled the community navigation logic. This should hopefully eliminate more navigation bugs.

v1.33.0

  • Update message layout on the inbox screen to clearly indicate the sender and receiver.
  • Better blocking experience. Blocking a user/community or instance should now show a snackbar when the action completes with a button to undo.
  • Link menu enhancements. Long tapping "links" (eg. user name) will show more rich options that are specific to the link type. For instance long tapping a community link will show community options as well as link options.
  • Removed setting "sharing images directly". Due to the link menu enhancements, the setting for "sharing images directly" is now obsolete because both options are always present for images.
  • Fixed a bug where WEBM videos will not play.
  • Fixed some weird navigation bugs.

Thank you for your detailed answer! Seems like you got a cool but complex system in place. I am so glad I mainly fumble around in backend. Frontend becomes so absurdly tangled so fast ๐Ÿ˜‚
