[Pre-release] v0.2.7-5

This is the fifth pre-release for Thunder v0.2.7! This pre-release version focuses on adding the ability to favorite communities in the sidebar, keyword filters, and a lot of other small quality of life improvements.

There will likely not be any more large features being added in after this pre-release as I prepare this for general availability soon. For those testing this version, please mention any bugs or issues that show up during testing!

Be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly.

Some notable changes to test out:

  • Added the ability to favorite communities. Favoriting communities will create a new section in the sidebar for quick access, and will prioritize them in community suggestions and search results.
  • Keyword filters have been added in. Adding keywords will filter any posts whose title or body containing one or more keywords.
