[Darko Luketic]

🚀 **Techidon v1.2.0 Released!**

This update focuses heavily on making the app more secure, accessible, and performant. Here is a summary of the changes:

### ✨ New Features
*   **Notification Actions:** You can now interact with notifications directly! Reply, favorite, or boost posts without opening the app.
*   **Pronoun Display:** Added support for displaying user pronouns.
*   **Emoji Utilities:** Improved handling and parsing of custom emojis.

### 🛡️ Security
*   **Network Security:** Enforced secure HTTPS connections and disabled cleartext traffic.
*   **Domain Blocklist Fix:** Patched vulnerabilities that allowed bypassing the blocklist via trailing dots or locale tricks.
*   **WebView Hardening:** Implemented strict whitelisting for URL schemes to prevent intent hijacking.
*   **Log Redaction:** Sensitive data like tokens and secrets are now automatically scrubbed from debug logs.

### ⚡ Performance
*   **Optimized UI:** Replaced Java Streams with standard loops in critical paths (like the emoji keyboard and timeline rendering) to reduce lag and garbage collection during scrolling.

### ♿ Accessibility
*   **Dynamic Labels:** Toggle buttons now correctly announce their state (e.g., "Close emoji keyboard") to screen readers.
*   **Alt Text Overlays:** Fixed an issue where alt text overlays were hidden from accessibility services.
*   **Semantic Poll Options:** Poll options now correctly identify as checkboxes/radio buttons for assistive technologies.
*   **Decorative Images:** Decorative images are now hidden from screen readers to reduce noise.
*   **Character Limit Feedback:** Added non-visual announcements for screen readers when character limits are reached.
