User request roadmap items are growing pretty long so this release aims to address a bunch of them.
Changes so far
- Add a setting to disable auto-linking IP addresses. Note that auto-linking IP addresses comes free with Android so enabling this feature will actually cause the app to strip them which is a bit slower.
- Add a new layout: full with cards. This layout is the full layout but each post is contained within a card instead of full bleed.
- Changed the UI for the post feed toolbar.
- Fixed a bug where sometimes expanding the context in the message screen would cause weird behavior.
- Fix locales being mixed together. (Attempt number 2)
Update
One of the roadmap items I am tackling is the addition of an optional post feed header. This one is challenging for a few reasons. The first is that because it’s supposed to be optional, the UI design needs to work with or without the headed. The second is that there’s a lot of moving parts with headers when the screen is this busy and complex already.
To tackle the first part I am redesigning the tool bar in the post feed screen so it will look good with or without the header.
You engagement with the community in building a roadmap, taking requests, and keeping us in the loop is amazing.
Even though I support open source apps, your app is amazing and I am loving it.
Thank you so much for the feedback. Open source continues to be a very complicated topic for me. On one hand it would be simple to over source the app, on the other it brings a lot of uncertainties. My current plans are to address this topic once and for all by the end of this year. It will give me more time to think about it.
