v0.2.0 is out!
I believe I finally fixed the crashes some users were experiencing when refreshing posts feeds, if you still experience one of these crashes, please report it via TestFlight. Also, links in posts and comments are way easier to tap now, that was frustrating, I know. You can read about all the changes in this version below.
Upcoming features
Collapsible Comments has been implemented, and will be included in the next release. I’m working on integrating a Lemmyverse browser for exploring outside of your instance. I’m also working on proper a proper iPad layout. Browsing on iPad is a little off-putting at the moment, so hopefully I can fix that.
Issue Tracker
I completely forgot to include a link to the issue tracker in the last release, but if you would like to submit an issue, you can visit the GitHub Issue Tracker. I will add a Feature Request option soon.

Thats great to hear, performance has been the primary focus since the beginning.
I will definitely add swipe actions to posts. I’d been holding off because I want to add a custom swipe actions, as I don’t really care for the system swipe design. I would prefer to implement one that triggers the selected action based on how far you swipe before releasing. However, that is low priority at the moment, so I may just go ahead and add swipe actions, and I can focus on the rewrite later.
I’m also excited about comment collapsing. I’ve been testing it out for a couple of days now, an I really enjoy it. I’m excited about v0.2.1 with iPad support, performance improvements, comment collapsing, settings redesign, and I might add in more swipe actions as well.
Yeah, I have to mention it again, performance is top notch since the beginning. Smooth like butter.
Thanks, looking forward to 0.2.1.
