Subshell 0.83: choose how posts look, pinned posts first, and pinch to zoom videos

Highlights:

  • Choose how posts look: Large, Compact, List or Grid, from the view button beside the feed (and in Settings).
  • A community's pinned posts now come first in every sort, as cards or as compact highlights.
  • Pinch to zoom videos in the full-screen player (turn it on in Settings).
  • A fresh look: Google's Material Symbols icons, Material 3 Expressive motion, and dynamic colour on by default.
  • More reliable: one unreadable post no longer breaks a whole feed, removed images say so instead of retrying, and the inbox sync retries on a shaky network.

Under the hood:

  • u/ suggestions when writing a post; comment dates follow your device language.
  • Reduce motion follows Android's "Remove animations".
  • Diagnostic reports say which action failed, Reddit's reason and which field could not be read. Still no content, names or IDs.
  • Updated libraries (OkHttp, Kotlin coroutines, Media3, Compose).
