Avelon for Lemmy 1.0.2 - customizable swipe gestures, a new inbox & subscriptions page and much more!

Hi everyone!

First of all thank you for all the amazing feedback I have gotten so far. I was a bit overwhelmed by the response on my first release, but I'm happy to see so many people enjoying Avelon. This update addresses a ton of the most common feedback I have received with a lot of useful new features including swipe gestures, a new inbox and a new subscriptions page.

Known Issues / Future Features

• Adding posts
• Viewing profile pages
• Viewing saved comments
• Blocking/filtering
• Multiple accounts
• Adjusting text size
• And more stuff!

Replies have been crashing on the iOS 17 beta and I've added a temporary fix that hopefully resolves this (though it lacks markdown highlighting). I'm not on the beta yet myself so unable to verify or add a proper fix for now, will look at this once I get a device on the beta.

Given how many features this update adds, I do expect the build to be a bit less stable than before. If you encounter any bugs/crashes I really appreciate your feedback, either here or through testflight.

Hope you enjoy the update, and let me know what you think about all the new features!
