New AltRant release!

Release Notes:

- Transitioned to URLCache-based caching solution for attached images for much faster loading times
- Fixed many layout issues
- Finally added "more info" button in profile screen after 2 years of the feature being absent from the app
- Fixed many different crashes
- Added rant refreshing
- Added double tap to upvote on rants and comments
- Added creation date/time indicators on rants and comments
- Added comment count indicator in post cells in feeds

All users are required to test every aspect of the app.

I worked really hard on all of this to improve every single aspect of this app - from responsiveness to crashes and layout glitches, while also adding many features that were absent for a crazy amount of time! Please enjoy!

The last build will expire in a week from now.

    You guys don't have release notes on Github?

    @WildOrangutan I do, but I also wanted to put them here.

    Nice update!

    Just one thing I suggest:
    IMHO you should remove the “on touch” gray background (don’t know the exact event on iOS), cause it gets activated even if you just scroll and you’re not opening the rant, it’s a bit annoying to see and really useless since the opening of the rant is instant anyway, no feedback required.

    Another UI suggestion: you should add a small padding the input fields, now the text is almost touching the borders.

    Keep the good work!

    @JS96 just checked about the padding in the text field (literally writing a comment using AltRant right now), I now see what you're talking about. And the select highlight thing is pretty damn annoying, ngl. Added to the list of things to do! Your feedback is priceless and I evaluate its worth in gold, same for all of the other testers who are constantly giving me feedback and sending crash reports, your input translates to my direct actions!
