To see the full details of this release, check out the GitHub release announcement: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/releases/tag/v0.2.1%2B8
For those on TestFlight, the update should automatically install on your device. For those who obtained the app through IzzyOnDroid, that update should eventually reach your devices!
There is also a discussion page here for any general discussions about this release if anyone is interested: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/discussions/115
I am so glad to see all the support for this so far, and it has truly been incredible. Thank you all for helping me build this app, and let’s continue to make it even better

The app feels amazing! One thing that I personally want is the possibility to share images, gif or videos as they are, not only as a link to the post…
Other than that, I’m switching from connect!
I love the app. Like a lot. Only thing missing for me so far. Text/UI zoom. Everything is too small for my old eyes. Lol
Can we get fully collapsed comment threads back as an option? Also when a comment is collapsed, there should be some indication that there are child comments hidden
Is the Android version 64-bit only? I can’t install it on my older phone with 32b system.
For those on Android, theres a few things I would like to get your feedback on (I don’t have a physical Android device so I cant see it for myself):
- How does the icon look like to you? Has it improved from last time?
- How is Material You? Does it work as expected?
- Did the name of the app change to Thunder instead of thunder (capital case vs lower case)?
- Icon’s great now! Fills the full app circle
- Material You works as expected! Colors are themed correctly
- It’s now Thunder instead of thunder

Nice update! Any word on support for refresh rates above 60? Whenever I scroll on my 120hz screen phone the app feels like it’s lagging.
Hey! I am aware of the performance issues and am working to improve them slowly over time
Thanks! Just to clarify, it’s locked to 60Hz on Android. So it’s not that the performance is dipping, it just doesn’t seem to support high refresh screens.
I just downloaded the app. I love the feel, look & everything so far!
I’m such a baby at this, so please excuse my ignorance. But I can’t seem to like comments under posts. Am I just missing something?
Also I don’t know where to find my comments that I’ve made. Again, am I just so dumb I can’t find it? How do I see My posts & comments & how do I like other ppl’s comments? Please & thank you.
Sorry, I didn’t know where else to ask this. 🥺 I love this app so much rn.
Hey! Thanks for trying Thunder out :D I would like to preface this by mentioning that this is still in (what I would consider) very very early alpha. Because of this, there’s still a lot of features that I’m working hard to bring to everyone in the community!
But I can’t seem to like comments under posts.
You can perform actions on comments by swiping on them! Currently, that’s the only way to upvote/downvote, save, and reply to comments
Also I don’t know where to find my comments that I’ve made.
This is currently in the works! In the next release, I’m hoping to have a more detailed profile view where you can see your posts, comments, and hopefully saved items
I hope this answers your questions!
It is one of the best designed lemmy app so far but my biggest issue with the app is that after scrolling a certain amount app becomes so laggy to the point it becomes unusable. Hope the issue is fixed soon.
I’m an Android user so let me know if more info is required.
Can’t exit app (clean install). Using Samsung A71 5g One UI 5.1
This is a known issue, and should be fixed in the next release!
Am i the only one who can’t find the starred/saved posts? Material theming 🙏🙏
Viewing saved posts will hopefully come in the next release 😅
Changelog says that now read posts dim the posts if you open them, but that is not working for me.
Whoops, I just tested it out again, and I forgot to dim the posts on the default view. If you switch to compact view, you should see them dimmed!
I’ll fix that for the next release
Thanks for the clarification!
Everything looks good but I am experiencing some skipping or lag when scrolling down.
Yup, I’m aware of some performance issues and I’ll hopefully have some improvements to those soon
No rush, just making mention of it. Keep up the great work!
Well, I tried th respond to your request guy android specific feedback. But, ahhhh, it won’t open up the action bar to reply to comments, votes, etc at all lol.
It is, however, showing as Thunder, the icon looks great, and so far everything else is smooth. Haven’t played around much though
Well, the reply function is on the right swipe menu, but there’s no edit option :)
