Thank you

Thank you all for using Gluon over the past years — it's been an amazing journey and I am so very thankful for all the new friends I have made in that time. It's been an incredible learning experience that has brought me to the present day. As you know, Gluon is no longer available to download as my own developer account on Apple expired in August (the Android app hasn't been available for some time). Unfortunately that means once the app is uninstalled from your device, you will no longer be able to download it. Gluon still has some...

Thank you to all that have used Gluon throughout the years. Without you I would not be where I am today. The past few months I made the decision to no longer work on Gluon (and other personal apps) for iOS and Android. Today I removed Gluon from the store and will no longer be available.

Thank you David and Jarrod for reporting. • [FIX] Fixes a blank user reply bar when loading up replies. • [TWEAK] The mention screen now keeps the scroll position when new items are added. Will work on adding an indicator at some stage. Please report any issues you might have.

Release 2024.1

Wow, what a year it’s been and now we’re onto the next already. So I’m wasting no time to get you all those goodies to you. Gluon nearly was cancelled, but I thought it better not to — people should never let you get you so low, just ignore them and move on and become better. Let’s go, because there is a lot, some highlights: • [NEW] Timeline rendering has been rewritten so things look nicer and handles more HTML (huh?) than before. This one was one of the bigger changes. • [NEW] For posts with many images, you now...
