Features: - Media viewer rewrite - Hydra in share sheet - Right side thumbnails in compact mode - Collapse child comments only - Filter subreddits temporarily - Support for new wikis - Swipe to scrub videos - Change video playback rate - Landscape mode - Media collection navigation arrows - Post info in media viewer - Swipe to dismiss media - Media viewer optimizations Bugfixes: - Music no longer randomly pauses while scrolling. I think I fixed this, but I haven't been able to consistently reproduce the bug, so if you experience this, a bug report would be appreciated. - Posts with a collection of videos only displayed the first video. - Scrubbing while in gallery mode locks vertical scrolling for a smoother experience. - Links that are slow to respond to requests for metadata are skipped, resulting in much faster loads in the worst cases. - Fixed image posts momentarily showing the wrong image. - Some link sources like Wikipedia would fail to show an image. - Fixed shadowbanned users being unable to log in. - Text URLs containing backslashes that weren't marked as links in markdown were parsed incorrectly. - Posts linking to other Reddit pages (e.g. /r/wowthissubexists) weren't rendering as links. - Having a multireddit named "All" would cause the "All" button to disappear in the subreddit list. - Hydra warns you when attempting to reply in a locked or archived post.
