Thunder App

Hello, everyone! Just wanted to share a quick update on Thunder's ongoing development for those who might not be keeping tabs on our progress in the Matrix space.

Our primary focus for the next update is to add support for Lemmy 0.19.x and enhance the overall performance and stability of the app. This translates to fewer visible features as our emphasis is on refining Thunder's underlying structure to make it easier to add even more features in the future.

If you're following the pre-release/nightly versions of Thunder, keep an eye out for a new version in the next few days. Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly, especially with the underlying structural changes to Thunder so far.

Some new features to expect in the upcoming pre-release include:

• Anonymous account support: you will be able to add new anonymous accounts for a specific instances and explore the instance without logging in.
• Improved modals with long-press functionality on posts or comments. Most general actions (voting, saving, etc.) are now accessible through the long-press action menu.
• Initial support for user/community autocomplete mentions when creating new comments or posts.

For a full list of upcoming features, refer to the current change log here: https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/blob/develop/CHANGELOG.md

A huge thanks again to everyone who has been actively contributing, and as always, we are constantly looking for more contributors to the project! I would like to give a huge shoutout to @[email protected] for all their contributions to Thunder!
