Upgraded performance

We've made a number of changes that have significantly improved Outverse performance across the app. You should now experience improved performance when loading and navigating channels & documents – and also when filtering content/threads within channels. We’ve significantly improved load times in channels by:

Better optimizing the sequencing of essential vs non-essential data requests

Switching to server-side rendering to load data in faster

Reducing the number of loading states across the app

New emoji picker
