This is the second pre-release for Thunder v0.2.1+13! The main focus for the upcoming nightlies will be fixing any outstanding issues and bugs that were introduced previously. There will most likely be no more new features added in the nightlies until the next general release.

Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly.

    Nice! Thank you. Swipe to open the sidebar is not working for me in this release.

    The community sidebar needs its own element for screen readers. Right now its part of the element that gives the name, logo, subscribers, etc.

      Hmm, I can take a look at it but I’m not sure how easily fixable it’ll be for the upcoming release

    Is the APK corrupt? When I tried to installed it, I got “problem parsing package”, then it tried it again, it looks like it’s installing and says “app not installed”

    Edit: uninstalled the existing app and then it worked. Would be really nice to have a settings export/import option so you don’t have to add your accounts and redo all your settings every time.

      That’s a good idea, could you make it into an issue on GitHub? Thanks!

        Regarding the theme, @[email protected] already answered that themes don’t work with Material You!

        As for the feed, I’m on Lemmy.world… It fixed itself after a while, and hasn’t happened again as of yet. My internet connection was good, and other feeds (Subscriptions, Local) worked fine.

      One thing to note with custom themes is that it doesn’t work with material you on.

          I was just as confused as you were at first ha ha. Definitely something we can make clearer in the settings.
