1.5.1

Compressor 1.5.1 is a single patch release to fix the report bug popup.

Full Changelog: 1.5.0...1.5.1

Yes, reproducible builds have failed, I'm sorry

I'm not going to push blame onto anybody else, this is completely my fault. I've worked really hard on Compressor over the past month, and it's starting to burn me out. I've been trying to fix user issues within 24-48 hours, and in doing so, have been pushing updates very frequently. You may have noticed I've already started releasing and committing less frequently. If I don't respond to your issue instantly, please don't take it personally, I have a life too, I work on Compressor completely for free, and thank you so much for using Compressor :)

Warning about malicious sites

It has come to my attention that malicious websites (specifically magiskmodule[.]gitlab[.]io and others) are writing fake articles about Compressor and linking to Ransomware/Malware instead of the real app.

Please ONLY download Compressor from:

• GitHub Releases (This repo)
• Google Play Store (Early Access)
• IzzyOnDroid
• APKMirror

If you see a "Secure Verify" or "Human Verification" page, CLOSE IT IMMEDIATELY. That is not me. Compressor is free and open source. I will never ask you to "Verify" to download.
