For you seasoned testers out there, I'd really like some feedback on any bugs you might find, especially for the mark-read-on-scroll and hide-read-posts feature, but of course everything else as well. Some of these systems were a bit tricky to get right, so I might have introduced a few new bugs here and there.

Hope you enjoy the update, and let me know what you think!

Hello! I’m trying out your update and I feel that this is the best yet. Great job!

I just noticed that the mark read on scroll doesn’t not work? And may I suggest you add a button to hide read posts?

Thank you!

Woops, I screwed up. Check out the latest build (b13), should work there. There's already a button in the top right menu, could ofc do a separate one for this but I think that'd quickly get a bit too cluttered.

Hey man! The ellipsis button just shows me either show read button and hide read button.

So when I choose hide read, the posts I read gets hidden. But I can’t manually hide post cause if I press it again, it shows the hidden posts. I guess the “hiding” is done automatically?

Oooh, I get what you're saying. The hide-read-posts is basically a filter for your feed, so I figured an on/off toggle would be enough. You're right tho, it should definitely stick around.

Yeah. I feel that if there’s a dedicated button just for hiding read messages. That would be great
