Shadow release
There is a “shadow release” v0.1.26 rolling out right now. It doesn’t add any features. It just fixes some bugs. That is all.
I’m calling it a shadow release because I’m not making a new post for it
Shadow release 2
Based on the wonderful discussion in https://lemmy.world/post/1350726, I have made some changes to how “Hide read” works. This update should hopefully be available in the play store in ~ 1 hour. We are on v0.1.29 now because I had to make some hot fixes along the way.
Yeah, I think it is better to keep this client side let better show read posts option keep working globally and have the client to hide read posts with the FAB button.
I think Connect for Lemmy does something like this (no switch though) without messing with Lemmy’s settings.
It has two options, one for mark as read while scroll and the other to hide the read posts but hidden posts does not interfiere with other apps.
Anyway I think it is a big progress to have a button on a FAB already, keep on the good job man!
