Since this release has a lot of under-the-hood changes, its expected that bugs may show up that were previously not there. Please open up a GitHub issue if you find any of those!

I am so glad to see all the support for this so far, and it has truly been incredible. Thank you all for helping me build this app, and let's continue to make it even better
You're viewing a single thread.
For those on Android, theres a few things I would like to get your feedback on (I don't have a physical Android device so I cant see it for myself):
- How does the icon look like to you? Has it improved from last time?
- How is Material You? Does it work as expected?
- Did the name of the app change to Thunder instead of thunder (capital case vs lower case)?
Icon looks great, Thunder is capitalized! Material You is working beautifully, though I might consider having it theme the floating New Post button as well?
AMAZING release, dude!
The floating button does get themed for me, when material you is enabled.
- Icon's great now! Fills the full app circle
- Material You works as expected! Colors are themed correctly
- It's now Thunder instead of thunder
The icon changed to a full black circle with the logo in the middle as it should be and the "T" is now capitalized. I am running Android 11 so no Material You testing for me. That was adden in Android 12 and up
The icon is lit in both UI 🔥
I think Material You works nice as well.
The only thing that confuse me is the order of the swipe actions, I think here are swapped compared with every other app (some have the ability to customize this as well though).
The long term plan is to allow customizability of the swipe gestures! Not sure when I'll be able to get around to that though
I see, thanks for the input!
The logo looks great, a bit more elegant! Thunder is capitalized and the Material You theme seems to work great, though I don't know enough about how it's supposed to look to say for sure. It does seem to use the right colours.
Take a look yourself at Material You 😀 Also to mention also: it loads only a few comments from this post but there are 20+
Thank you for this great app.
This could be most likely that there were new comments added since the last time the post was updated. If you refresh the feed, you should be able to see the updated number of comments!
No issue with Thunder. My instance did not show all comments. Just found out that this was the reason. Sorry for that.
Agree with shortwavesurfer re:logo and the Material You theme looks like how I would expect, much prefer it to the default dark theme.
You are killing it mate, well done.
- Icon looks great
- Can't test Material You
- T is upper-case now
The only issue I'm seeing with the material you design and actually this is kind of a problem with the dark theme is the text of links in posts is not readable. E.g https://ibb.co/qpjtNm4
Thanks for pointing that out! I'll see if I can fix that 😅
Can't emphasize enough how much of an improvement this is. Amazing upgrade. Thank you !
