v2.4.0

work is ongoing for the update to Lemmy's API v4. I'm still considering whether to drop API v3 support entirely.
I've backported design changes from Lemmy v4 which may cause a few odd looking components.

• design: Overhaul tab components and buttons, adding depth and highlights.
• feat: add capacitor, to support a native android app
• performance: some performance improvements planned for this release were reverted because firefox doesn't support them.
  • optimize the virtual list significantly

• feat: add keyword and URL filtering for posts by @Kehet and @Xyphyn in #711
  • only for posts for now, by default it will minimize the post in your feed to let you know it was hidden while still being unobtrusive. if you want to completely hide them, that's still an option
• feat: automatically retrieve cross-server content
  • previously this would require an extra button press. this is much more transparent
  • also this makes photon links a lot better for sharing with frens
• feat: completely rewrite the api adapters to not be absymal trash
  • if an employer saw that i wrote the old api adapter i would be fired on the spot
• fix: Missing escaped text by @sevonj in #706
