Alpha Release [v0.2.1 10]

Zoom zoom zoom, new update incoming and Happy Canada Day for my fellow Canadians out there (if there are any out there 👀) 🎉

I know I skipped v0.2.1 9 - this was because a build failed for TestFlight, which upped the version from v0.2.1 9 -> v0.2.1 10

Important: it is highly recommended to reinstall the app for the best (and least buggy) experience possible

This update was mainly focused on improving overall performance for Thunder - you should hopefully see less lag as you scroll down your favourite feed or community! In addition to that, a few new major additions have been added, including the ability to view a user's profile, a revamped account page (for posts, comments, and saved posts), editing of comments, ability to download images and of course, more quality of life improvements to make your experience even better!

As always, this is an alpha release, so do expect bugs to pop up here and there. Without further ado, here are the changes:

Major Additions

• Hopefully major improvements to performance within the app! You should feel that scrolling through the feed is smoother, and less laggy (hopefully) There is still an issue with some stuttering within long comment threads which will be looked at further
• Added ability to edit your own comments - editing will replace the reply swipe gesture if you are swiping on your own comment
• Added ability to download images - contribution from @MrAntonS
• Added back ability to collapse a comment, toggle-able in the settings
• Added pull to refresh on posts
• An additional button now shows up for each post in comfortable view to open the more actions modal
• Long pressing the post will bring up a modal to perform more actions such as visit community, user profile, sharing
• Added initial support for viewing user profiles - including their posts and comments
• Added top sort options - contribution from @JulianPaulus
• Upvoting and downvoting posts/comments now provides you with immediate feedback (no more waiting around)

QoL Improvements

• Adjusted thickness of divider between posts to help differentiate posts
• Increased threshold for triggering a upvote/downvote on comments to hopefully have less accidental actions

Fixes and Misc

• Fixed issue where you could not exit app when swiping back or using the back button
• Fixed issue where an error would be thrown if trying to access http pages - contribution from @vbh
• Fixed issue with missing haptic feedback on comment actions and other places
• Fixed issue where reply button would cover actions and comments for short posts
• Removed mark as read for mentions and replies that have already been read

And many more changes under the hood!

The main focuses for the next release are (but subject to change):

• Adding in a way to block users or communities
• Editing of posts
• Adding more options when creating posts
• Alternate ways of voting in comments outside of swipe gestures

If you find any issues or would like to suggest features, please open up a new issue! As always, contributions are always welcomed here.
