An Optimized iPadOS version with multi-window support

I've been using the app for an hour and it looks great on my iPhone 12 Mini, however, I primarily use my iPad Pro 12.9" for work and news.
Sadly, the UI isn't representative of an iPadOS app. Here are my suggestions for a more optimized design:
- Better grid layout for each product showcasing not only the name, logo, and images but also a little description. That's because the screen real-estate allows for more information
- Including profile information in the navigation bar (left side of the screen) results in better UX for those who want quick statistical information
- Optimizing the text length in the product page and reducing it to (maximum) 74 letters. When the text fills the entire screen, it becomes a usability and accessibility problem.
- Enabling full-screen view of images once they're tapped.
- Adding Magic Keyboard integration where the cursor snaps into UI elements and users are able to use keyboard shortcuts to navigate or reply to comments.
- A dedicated UI which enables browsing product hunts on the left side, and reading news on the right side.
I'm very excited for the future of this app.

All excellent ideas! We will be giving some touches to the iPad UI in future betas and the full screen image viewer is coming very soon also :)
@kylerjphillips some great thoughts here as we review the larger layouts :)
