This update adds the community info screen. It also polishes the app further, adding tons of general QoL changes.
The community info pane has been removed in favor of the more informative community info page.
This update also turns on gesture actions by default. Since the community info pane has been removed, there is no longer a trade off for enabling gesture actions.
Note that you are now able to subscribe to a community by tapping the community button at the top left. You can also subscribe using the community screen added in this update.
As always, feel free to provide any feedback on the update or report bugs in the comments.

Thanks for the explanation, I can understand that some may prefer the lower contrast/grey text, we all have different preferences. Personally I prefer a whiter text on the black/dark background, so I switched to card view, as that suits me better… so there is a choice anyway…👍🏼
One of the main goals of the app is to make this app customizable for every person’s preference so definitely please keep the feedback coming. I wouldn’t know what settings to add otherwise.
To give a bit more background for why text is grey, this is more based on some ux and usability principles that essentially say pure blacks or pure whites on pure whites or pure black backgrounds causes eye strain.
I completely understand the reasoning, however, & this only from my experience, using fedilab for mastodon, in AMOLED the default is a dull grey text, I had to change this to a much whiter text in order to avoid eye strain.🤷🏻♂️😅 Any choices are great and appreciate your efforts to ensure there are many available within the app… I’ll certainly pass on anything I happen to notice along the way… Have a good weekend 👍🏼
