It has been great to come back and revitalize this app after 2 years of neglect. I'm excited about how far this app can be improved, and think this release makes a good stepping stone towards future features and improvements.

See the installation instructions, which include flatpak and other easy to use methods.

Added

  • The frontpage is now visible. You can see it by going to / in the url bar. (#56)
  • The app now supports Flatpak & NixOS installation
  • Performance improvements in the comments view
  • The codebase is now tested! I'm pretty sure this is one of the only GTK+ apps which has proper UI tests - so this should stop more regressions in the future!

Changed

  • Fixed sign in issues on newer versions of webkit (#61, #58)
  • Replaced the markdown engine, should now support more features (#66)
  • The alignment in subreddit listings should now be more uniform. (#64)
  • Many size related bugs have been fixed (#6, #47, #72)
  • The url bar is now less lenient on formatting. Previously, going to /linux would take you to /r/linux. Due to the frontpage changes, this no longer happens
  • [PACKAGING] Moved icons from pixmaps to the hicolor directory
  • [PACKAGING] Change SCSS compiler from ruby sass to sassc

Please use v0.2.2 instead; it fixes a critical sign-in bug that missed this release
