This was supposed to be the release that added local event tracking but I didn't end up having enough time to finish it. So instead of holding up the release I am releasing with local event tracking turned off. There will be more information about this once local tracking is ready. tl;dr is a lot of user requested features require local event tracking.

Full changelog

Add new FAB quick action - refresh posts.
Add listing type search filters (eg. filter by local, moderator view, subscribed).
Add feature to scroll post feed with volume rocker. Can be enabled in settings (Post feed). Default off.
Add setting to turn off saving recent communities.
Switch to use a different default user agent so the Summit client doesn't look like a bot. This should fix network issues. If you encounter any new network errors after the release, please ping me!
Improve performance of hide read by using API to hide some read posts.

Update

I made a mistake and didn't switch to using the new user-agent everywhere. Will fix this in a patch release (v1.74.1).

Use the new user-agent everywhere.

Are you on Android 11 or below? It looks like a lot of instances have begun showing images in AVIF format. Unfortunately this file format is not supported by Android 11 and below. I wonder if this is what is causing a lot of these issues.

14, which still receives updates. Could it be a file size issue?

It seems unlikely. The reason why you still see the image is because posts typically have 2 images, a thumbnail (low resolution) and the source image (high resolution). When you tapped the post. You are first shown the thumbnail while the source images loads. This is why it looks like the images loads at first. In the full screen viewer the same thing happens. You are shown the thumbnail but the erro indicates that the source image failed to load. If you tap the "error details" button it should give you more information about the underlying cause.
