Known Issues:

  • Unsaving your most recent saved post will cause the re-sync functionality to break
  • If newly synced posts are from new subs, the new sub doesn't get added to the Filter (search/dropdown), but can be viewed by opening the HTML file
  • Comments will be added in the future due to API limitations
  • Saved comments will also be added, delayed due to styling issues

Please open an issue if you find any other issues or have enhancement suggestions.
