MAJOR FEATURES - Profile editor: you can now change your display name, biography, avatar and banner image, and matrix ID. Check it out in Settings -> Account. - Easy-tap links: links detected in posts and comments now get a nice big tappable button at the bottom of the post. You can copy and share these links via long-press on the link button, and customize their behavior in Settings -> General. - Tab bar navigation: tapping the currently selected tab while at the top of the feed will navigate back. Reselecting the search tab from the top of the feed will focus the search bar. - Upgraded post composer: we’ve made the post composer prettier, added the ability to upload images from files and clipboard, and made it show the account you're posting from. It also now displays a warning if your post runs afoul of your instance’s slur filter. - Instance page: you can now view detailed instance information, accessible from a community or profile via the ellipsis menu in the navigation bar. - Saved content feed: saved content has moved!

Mlem 1.1 is here at last! Features and Improvements - Fully Customizable Interaction Bar. All the buttons you want, exactly where you want them. Check it out in Settings -> Posts or Comments -> Customize Widgets. - Enhanced Search. Search has been given a major facelift, and we’ve added the ability to search for both users and communities. You can also now subscribe directly from search results. - New Icons. We have two all-new icons for the app: Classic Lemmy, designed by Eric Andrews, based on the Lemmy icon; and Stargazer, designed by Sjmarf. - Jump Button. We’ve added a button to the comments view to let you jump to the next comment, because scrolling is just too much work sometimes. - Image Uploading. You can now upload an image while creating a post. - Onboarding. We now have a proper onboarding flow for new Lemmy users. - Collapse comments. Swipe *all* the way to the left to collapse a comment. - Collapse post content. In the detailed post view, you can tap a post to collapse it and get straight into the comments. - Adjustable haptic levels. You can disable some or all of the haptic feedback in Settings -> General -> Haptic Level. - Opaque insets. You can make your navigation and tab bars fully opaque in Settings -> Accessibility -> Translucent Insets.' - Added an option to upvote posts on save. You can find it in Settings -> General -> Upvote on Save. - Added an option to show the user avatar in the tab bar instead of the generic profile picture. You can find it in Settings -> Appearance -> Tab Bar -> Show User Avatar. - Edited posts and comments now display the updated time. - Instant vote feedback. Voting on posts and comments now displays the vote instantaneously, rather than waiting for that sluggish speed-of-light roundtrip to the server. - Link posts now have an indicator on their thumbnail in Compact and Headline mode. - You can now block communities directly from posts. - Various actions have been flagged as destructive and given a nice little warning popup. - Fixed some issues with images embedded in links displaying poorly. - Fixed nav bar disappearing on device rotation. - Haptic feedback no longer causes an animation hitch on first play. - Made profile headers more readable. - Updated the behavior of the NSFW filter. In expanded post mode, tapping anywhere on the image will dismiss the filter; in feed, the filter can still only be dismissed by tapping the warning sign. - Very tall images now shrink to a max height. You can make them display in their full, glorious height in Settings -> Appearance -> Posts -> Limit Image Height In Feed. - Smoothed out editor sheet animations. - Clarified error message when trying to log into a private instance. Bug Fixes - Addressed scrolling jumpiness. Again. I really think I’ve got it beat this time, though. Please? - Fixed a problem where the account switcher would be open when re-opening the app. - Inbox now persists unread status. - Search no longer has auto-correct or auto-capitalization. - Fixed the “share” button crashing the app on iPad. - Fixed feed refresh not behaving consistently - Fixed login not handling incorrect 2FA code properly - Added handling for inconsistent date formats across instances - Fixed unencoded URLs breaking the feed - Fixed instances with optional `.admin` field not loading - Fixed large posts rendering incorrectly on iPad. - Fixed the first ~40 posts not showing up - Fixed posts loading after the end of the feed - Fixed settings icons not rendering properly on iOS 17 - Fixed a bug where connecting to instances on `localhost` was impossible - Fixed logging in before email verification crashing the app - Fixed opening posts from URL links crashing the app - Fixed swipey action animation and context menu animation trying to run at the same time (ONLY on iOS 17—some of the changes made in iOS 17 gave us the tools to disable this behavior, but there’s unfortunately nothing we can do about it in iOS 16). Cheers, The Mlem Group
