Moderator comment actions
Hi, I'd like to switch from Boost to Thunder permanently but the lack of moderator actions is the final hurdle. Being able to remove posts is a good start, but not being able to do anything with comments is a bit of an issue for me. Any idea when this feature might be added?

Sometimes when I am scrolling through a comment feed, I somehow make this dialogue pop up and it seems to involve comments with links in them. I don't like it and I don't know how I am making it happen, it just gets in the way. Long short, how do I make it stop or disable it entirely? It happens very often.

Alpha Release [v0.4.0]: Video support, UI/UX improvements, and more!
Hey everyone, Thunder v0.4.0 is finally here! This release cycle took a bit longer than usual, but as a result, introduces a lot of new features, changes, and fixes which should make for a even better Thunder experience. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to discuss it in the Thunder community or on GitHub. If you're enjoying Thunder and would like to show some support, star this project on [GitHub](https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder)! This helps gain visibility for the project and allows more contributors to help with the continued development of Thunder. If you'd like to show some appreciation, [here is a post with details on how to donate]( https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/issues/756) to the active contributors of Thunder. A quick reminder: if you are using the Google Play version or App Store version, please note that it may take a bit of time before you receive the update. Now onto the update notes. This update brings a few major features: 🎉 New Features - The comment creation page has been fully re-built from the ground up and introduces a few new features, including the ability to specify the comment language, ability to comment as a different user, and addition of spoilers to the markdown toolbar. If you have any suggestions or feedback regarding these changes, feel free to make a new issue on GitHub! - There is now initial support for video playback on Thunder! The built-in video player should work with most video URLs (that end in a proper video extension) and should work with YouTube URLs. Additionally, you can customize some video settings such as playback speed, auto-mute, auto-play and more in the Settings page. The video player is ***still experimental***, so there may still be some issues present. - Additional customization options including the ability to customize the colours of actions (upvotes, downvotes, saving, etc.), hiding thumbnails from the feed, showing user/community avatars, and much more. ℹ General - There have been improvements to the overall UI/UX across the board. This includes improvements to the pure black theme, improvements to markdown rendering of tables, quotes, and more. - There have also been a lot of changes under-the-hood to hopefully improve the overall performance and reliability of actions. As a result of these changes, there may still be some issues that were not caught during testing. If you notice any general issues, please make a new issue on GitHub. And much much more. I can't go through all the changes in the changelog, but for those who are curious, feel free to check out the full changelog below.

Feature Request: Preferred dark theme
I use the follow system when setting a theme. However, Thunder defaults to gray theme rather than amoled. Would love to have the option to set a preferred dark theme so that it defaults to the amoled option instead.

[Screenshot] Color contrast for OP and mod names
**Edit**: nvm, I changed something in settings, it was user error. Pls disregard Hi Thunder devs, I have an accessibility issue to report regarding the special styling for original poster and mod names (changed with the last major release). I haven't checked against WCAG, but I'm pretty sure they don't meet color contrast standards; it's pretty hard to read the grey text, especially over the 'mod' orange. Otherwise, no complaints. I really dig Thunder, I chose it as my daily driver after months of testing alongside Voyager, Eternity, and Jerboa. It just feels more responsive and intuitive, and the customization options are quite good. Nice work!
