This release is done to flush all the changes I had made before my "break" from the app.

This is a minor release. Most of the changes for this release are bug fixes.

Full changelog

  • Fix more issues with cards with clipped shadows.
  • Fix a bug where the home item in the side panel displays the wrong home feed.
  • Fix a bug where an instance mismatch message is shown even if there is no mismatch.
  • Fix a bug where the left pane sometimes interferes with the options bar in the post feed header if the options bar can be scrolled.
  • Rename the mod action "Feature comment" to "Mark important"
  • Fix a bug where opening a link if the app is not open will not open the link correctly.
  • Minor improvements to server error messages.
  • Fix a bug where tapping on the comments count on the "You" screen does not show the comments for the current account.
  • Fix a bug where tapping the current selected item in the navigation bar will break navigation, causing some subtle bugs.
  • Fix a bug where the lock icon for locked posts is clipped.

Update

Had to fix a build issue. Release will be versioned v1.59.1.

This change is extremely restrictive to the design of the app, so I think I will have to veto this. For back navigation, I strongly encourage you to try using Android's gesture navigation system instead.

I didn't realise it would be so restrictive. That's fair.

A lot of UI elements rely on horizontal swiping. It essentially interferes with all of them. Its why gesture navigation uses the edges of the screen.

It was just something I got used to using in Sync and have been missing, but I didn't understand it was that much of a headache. If I understood what it meant I probably wouldn't have asked, sorry. I'm not a programmer at all so I really have no idea whether something is easy or complicated to implement.

No problem at all.
