The focus of this release is DMs. Direct messages have been difficult to manage and respond to in the past especially for message chains. This release cleans up the DM experience to make them much easier to use.

Full changelog

• Redesigned the DM experience.
• Changed messages in the inbox. Messages sent by you will no longer show up in inbox.
• Make it more obvious when loading in the inbox screen(s)
• Changed the "Mark as read" gesture to toggle the read state of the post. Eg. if a post is read and the gesture "Mark as read" is performed, the post will be marked as unread.
• Added a fade effect to the bottom screen when screens are stacked together. Eg. when viewing a post from the community feed.
• When viewing a reply message in the inbox, added a button in the context section to make it easier to see the post of the reply.
• Fixed a bug where the navigation bar does not highlight the correct item in certain cases.
• Fixed a bug where the open link button is visible when no image is shown in the post list.
• Fixed some bugs that occur when viewing a link to a Lemmy post of another instance.
• Fixed some minor bugs with people search.

v1.40.1

There were some dependency issues so I had to do a version bump. There shouldn't be any changes from the base release though.

v1.40.2

• Fixed a bug where images are not shown/loaded within direct messages.
• Added a full text editor to the send message input field. When sending a direct message, you will be able to tap on the full editor button to open the "advanced text editor" to make it easier to compose more complex messages.
• Fixed a bug where the post in the "context" section of an inbox message would have a random amount of whitespace at the bottom.
