Thanks!

At the moment, binary files aren't supported. They show up in the file tree, but their contents are empty. That's something I plan to add in the next release.

For large PRs, diffy fetches the PR through GitHub's API (page by page), stitches the patches together, and renders the entire diff using Pierre's Diffs and Trees. Syntax highlighting runs in a background worker, so the UI stays responsive even for very large changes.
