What's Changed

design: make media embeds not look like garbage
design: make error containers not look awful
design: make big community cards not look awful (and make them fully clickable)
fix: photon accidentally took inspiration from every article site ever and would autoplay videos from posts when you navigated. this was fixed
fix: a poor, alone button was in the command palette. i joined it with the other ones so that you can actually navigate with arrow keys and it looks better
- it also got a friend, an option to search communities.
fix: i made a workaround for a svelte bug (i think). somehow, it would render an {#if} branch even if the condition was false, specifically if you had a dynamic component anywhere. this caused post feeds to have stale data when switching accounts.
fix: automatically strip leading https:// from the login prompt, for people who interpret "server domain" as the full fwicking url
fix: CommentItem had a shadow when it shouldn't've (that's a word?)
fix: when you went to edit your post, it would crash. i fixed

Nice!

It'd be nice to make a (or use a) custom video player for videos that currently use the default browser one.
