Auto-switch to and from tablet mode for foldables #1560

Feature Description

Hi everyone,

I'd love if the app automatically switches on and off tablet mode for a foldable device (in my case Pixel 9 Pro Fold) when using the front screen and switching to and from the main screen

When on, the UI shows 2 squished columns in the front screen of the phone, and when off it looks much too wide on the main screen.

Thanks for the feedback! Support for foldables right now is quite minimal, but this is something that I would like to improve on i the future (in addition to general tablet optimizations)

Awesome!

I might say that I like how Infinity for reddit displays a post in tablet mode: 2 columns, left column is the post itself, and right column is comments. But that should probably be another feature request/issue. They have auto-switching for my foldable so maybe there's some code in there? I'll have a look later, but it is Java rather than Dart/Flutter...

Thanks for the fantastic app!
