In case any of you are itching to know where I am with this, I’m still working on it; last few days I upgraded a few of the libraries to simplify the build process, and laid the groundwork for a modern app database so I can hook up the offline mode stuff, and some of the other pages more dependent on local data. I know its not very visible stuff though, so I’ve been holding off tagging a new version until I add at least one new feature. I could probably use some testing soon so likely I’ll implement either posting, commenting, or the Go to Subreddit box for browsing to a specific community, unless there’s something you want more?

    Extra notes for the techies; been kotlinifying the codebase as I go, its now mostly done, but vast swathes of the code in the original namespace needs serious redesign. There are some really great things in this, like I just came across the subsampling imageview which is a brilliant idea, but its undermined a bit by mindbogglingly bizarre things like using sharedpreferences to communicate the result of a folder chooser dialog. Notably, I’ve added some homegrown error reporting in this, that auto posts a github issue with stack trace on crash, which I’m real happy about, and I’m sure will get a battering once I tag a release
