Subshell 0.82: a new comment composer, a smaller app and open source
Highlights:
- Replying is rebuilt: a quick reply card sits on the keyboard, and Expand opens a full-screen editor with formatting and a preview of your comment.
- subshell is about two-thirds smaller (7.5 MB instead of 24.6 MB) and starts more evenly, thanks to code shrinking and a startup profile.
- If subshell closes unexpectedly, the next start offers to send a diagnostic report. Nothing leaves your phone unless you choose to send it.
- subshell's source code is now public under GPL-3.0, one snapshot per release, at github.com/brealorg/subshell-source-public.
- Updated to the newest Material 3 components.
Under the hood:
- Release builds are shrunk and optimised with R8 (class and method names are kept, so crash reports stay readable).
- A baseline profile is compiled on install, so the code a cold start runs is ready ahead of time.
- A future release can warn readers on a version with a known problem to update.
