First, features…
Swipe to hide!
This is a huge feature that has a lot of effort put into making it work flawlessly, even with hundreds of thousands of hidden items. So swipe away! All data is persisted locally per account. In the future, we’ll add hide on scroll, and it should work really well with our performant storage implementation. Shoutout to burakcan for all your hard work on this :)

Comment dialogs now ask for confirmation before nuking your data
I can’t tell you how much I hate software that loses your progress. When the new comment dialog was implemented, I though there would be about 5 people using wefwef, but now there are tons of you!
Care was taken to ensure you can continue to swipe away the comment dialog if no new content has been entered - for example, if you accidentally swipe to reply.
Care was also taken to confirm before closing a tab or navigating on desktop devices! So please try it out and let me know what you think!
Like browsing NSFW on iOS? This release is for you
Blurred items should be a LOT more snappy, now that blurring is being performed by the GPU.
MORE SPEED
More performance improvements thanks to a code refactor on how we present commonly used dialogs :)
Double tap search shortcut!
No longer reach all the way up to that search bar. 😎
ARM builds
I love seeing all the self-hosting! Now you can easily self-host wefwef on even more devices!
Special thanks to all contributors!
Crazybus, burakcan and aidankinzett! Thank you! 💙
How do you un-hide posts? I’m still getting used to the swiping and already accidentally hid a post that I wanted to read.
