Hey everyone, I just wanted to provide a big announcement that Thunder is now available on the App Store! This includes compatibility with iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch (apparently), and Macs using Apple Silicon
The direct link to the App Store listing is here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/thunder-for-lemmy/id6450518497. As this was just published, it may take some time to show up within your country/region so if you do not see it yet, try again later!
The App Store version will follow the same version as Google Play and will be used for general releases. The TestFlight version will now be used for nightly/pre-release builds. Again, I’ll try to keep all the versions in sync with one another, but there may be slight delays in processing times due to the different platforms.
Thunder is a community-driven project, and all your contributions towards the project help shape the way it is. If you are interested in contributing to Thunder in any way, feel free to reach out!

Since I tend to go by Thundernerd I feel like I have to try it out.
Like the others mentioned, the UI is refreshing, it feels slick!
ETA: I do notice a tiny bit of stutter when scrolling. Not quite sure why that happens.
The scrolling stutter on the feed can be smoothed out a bit by disabling external link previews. There is a bit of an overhead constantly calling out to external sites to scrape for an image to show. As for the comment feed. I think it could be better and I'm hoping it's something we can improve on.
Oh neat, I’ll try that out! To be good, they are only minor things :D
Your comment led me to take another look at where we display external links and I think there is an improvement that can be made. Currently that option I mentioned disables all external link thumbnails. But what we should do instead is only disable the image scraping and still show the thumbnails if Lemmy has them. Expect a fix soon :)
Great to hear! Thanks for the work :D
Today's new nightly release has my changes that should make the post feed smoother :)
Just updated and it feels great so far!
