So I’ve compared Thunder, Sync, and Voyager. They all report as running at 120fps on my pixel 8 pro, but only sync and voyager actually feel like it.

I’m not sure how to quantify or prove this, but there’s a noticeable feel of microstutter when scrolling through feeds or comments on thunder.

Does anyone else experience this? Thunder is still my favourite of the 3 just because of it’s functionality and features, but would love for it to feel a little better to navigate.

    Hey there! Thanks for the feedback - I recently started to notice this as well so I’ve been putting more focus into improving overall performance and scrolling! This is still a big work in progress so it might take a while before all these improvements make it out into a release.

    For a bit of background, most of my time developing Thunder has been through an iOS device (as that was the only device I had access to). On iOS, I would say the experience is generally pretty smooth. Only recently did I gain access to an Android device where I finally started to notice some of the stuttering that you’re mentioning.

      Oh hi! Thank you for the all work that you do. Like I said, Thunder is still my current favourite of the android clients.

      I appreciate you/the app and will be patiently watching for future updates. :)
