[Release][v1.22.1] The new year update

Happy 2024 everyone! Here is a release to kick the year off. This release features all of the requests I've gotten during the holidays. There isn't an exact theme for this release and the majority of the changes are minor. However there are a lot of changes.

As usual the release will be going out shortly to both Github and beta testers on the play store. Once I've confirmed the build is stable the release should be available to every one else. Expect ~12 hours before the release is available to everyone.

Full changelog

• Added a warning dialog if send is hit when there is an in-progress image upload
• Added the option to add a date and a watermark to the "take screenshot" feature. These are now enabled by default.
• Added a setting to change between single line comment headers and multiline comment headers.
• Added a "saved" icon to posts and comments that are saved.
• Added a "change instance" button if a lemmy link is tapped but the instance does not match that of the current account.
• Moved the setting to change between navigation rail vs bottom bar to the navigation settings page. Previously it was in misc.
• Improve the UI of bottom sheets.
• Modified "back to the beginning" button in the overflow menu of the post list screen to take you back to the top without refreshing.
• Fixed an issue where comment view layout is really tall if both show avatar and show up/downvote is enabled.
• Fixed a bug where switching the navigation bar to rail/bottom bar will cause the bottom bar to become unusable until the app is either restarted or an orientation change is made.
• Fixed a bug where the highlighted icon in the nav bar is not visible when using the light theme.

The new (optional) footer for screenshots.

Update

There is a regression in the release. I will look to fix the issue and do another release after work today. For those curious, the regression can be reproduced by the following:

1. Tap "Hide read"
2. Tap on a post.
3. Save the post.
4. Go back.
5. Post is gone.

This is caused by the new "show saved" feature. This feature relies on refetching a post on save state change in order to show the correct state of the post. However when "hide read" is active, this refresh will cause the post to disappear as it's being filtered out as the post is read.

Update 2

Fix has been submitted to the play store as v1.22.1. It should be available soon. I will also be releasing it to everyone as soon as I confirm nothing else is broken.

Update 3

Update is now fully live.
