New Features
Image compression
To make page load faster and save some space on the server, every uploaded image is now compressed.
It was achived by using image-compressor library and making it at client side before post or header image is uploaded to server.

Comments nesting
Loading nested replies in comment section. Right now by clicking on show replies app will load all children of the clicked comment but only one nested level down.
It was developed by using simple recursive build and by changing how comments are handled, I have separated containers and comment which gave me oportunity to delete lots of duplicated code.

Thanks for the contribution, @snwolak! It's always a pleasure reviewing your contributions!
The added GIFs are a nice touch, but it would be great to hear more about the implementation details / problems encountered (if any) in my opinion. Of course this is just how I feel, as it could be an opportunity for me and others to learn, but please don't think you are required to do this.
The comment nesting honestly looks great. I've never used Tumblr, so it really reminds me of Reddit's comment nesting actually. Also, being able to reply on every nested level is a great quality of life improvment - great work!
Don't really have anything to say about the quality of the code, as it's great as usual. Looking forward to the next update already!

Wow that was really fast review :P. Thanks for your opinion, I need to write these points down and think about them before next post.
As far as I know tumblr doesn't have nested comments but steemit have so I feelt like I need to implement it just to provide feature steemit has.
Thank you for your review, @amosbastian!
So far this week you've reviewed 25 contributions. Keep up the good work!
