Sync for Lemmy Beta 96 release notes - eviltoast

New

  • Support for Lemmy 0.19
  • Lots and lots of refactoring cleaning up technical debt
  • Added “Account settings” to replace “Lemmy Settings”
    • This new section syncs up with your Lemmy account
    • A few things will need updating such as your nsfw setting and sort

Changes

  • Any action that fail now alerts the user via notification
  • Show / hide NSFW has been moved to Settings > Account settings (this now respects your account choice)
  • Sort has been moved to Settings > Account settings (this also now respects your account choice)
  • Removed “mark posts as read” and “remember across devices” as Lemmy does this automatically

    App crashes on launch after update for me repeatedly after it scanned my fingerprint. After a successful scan it sat on the main page with no content loading, and no buttons working for a half second or so before the crash.

    Couldn’t get past it with a force close or a clear cache. I had to wipe the apps data which logged me out and reset my settings, and then I was able to log in again.

    On a Samsing S22 Ultra running Android 13 OneUi 5.1
