Hi, this update is mostly focused on some performance updates to Image rendering and memory management. I stripped out the old plugin I had doing this and am now handling things a bit more manually. Hopefully this should improve the experience of long scrolling sessions. I did refactor a lot so if you see any bugs here please let me know! Large new additions in this release are URL domain filters, and video zoom. I’m starting work on settings import/export but it’s not ready just yet.
Added
- Added URL Domain filters
- Added video zoom (double tap, pinch)
- Added a link icon to posts without thumbnails
- Added None as a comment long press action
- Better handling when proxied comment resolve fails

- Fixed some issues with image heights not fitting correctly
- Minor hotfix to change the link icon on posts to be centered and not left aligned
- Improved the list of subscriptions for large lists
- Fixed an issue where images would sometimes not free from memory
- Fixed photo view not expanding
- Fixed a small screen flash on image expand
- improved performance of large images
- All Snackbars now last for 5 seconds
- Fixed markdown not loading in some cases when it should
- URL confirmation prompt now also applies to external links
- Fixed an issue with switching accounts when uing an email to log in
- Fixed an issue with Spoiler tag sometimes not appearing
- shouldInstanceBlockIncludeUsers no longer defaults to on

Finally I can switch accounts! Everyone else told me I was crazy, but after logging out and readding .ml and .world I can switch accounts!
That said, my old account is still there and I can’t switch to it to get rid of it.
So half fixed in this version
Someone else posted about having issues signing in when they had the same name for accounts. iirc the name was RxBrad and they had three or four accounta with the same name and also had trouble logging in. Could be related?
