The biggest performance changes should be from 0.0.56

Due to a compound of factors:

• Upgrade of Jetpack Compose, the toolkit we use for the app, they have done some optimizations
• Stability config change (Basically we tell Compose these elements are stable)
• More memozation of function calls

Those factors lead to that we do a lot less recompositions now. Which means that that each frame we do less calculations, "keep the same UI element as before", it is smarter at about detecting elements that stayed the same and should not be recalculated. So each frame is cheaper and it can do thus more per second

In 0.0.60 I have updated the baseline profiles (It ships the app with AOT bindings, instead of which you would get after a week from release on the playstore)

Google does some amazing work, it just takes them a long time.
Once this patch lands we should see more optimizations

I also recommend list/small card view, if you prefer the feed to not jump due to images loading in. At some point i'll refactor some infra so that I can Image and post preload feature out. So that it should be able to instantly load those images. But that is quite deep in the backlog.
