- Website was never linked from the README. Add a header link line
(Website / Download / AUR) directly under the tagline and a second
pointer in the Download section.
- Verify example used vega_0.12.1_amd64.AppImage.tar.gz — AppImage was
dropped in v0.1.6. Swap in a current .deb example.
- Sig note was stale: .deb and .rpm actually ship with minisign
signatures now (tauri-action unified installer and updater artifacts).
Only .dmg is unsigned.
- Web of Trust wasn't mentioned in the features list despite shipping
in v0.11.0 and being extended to reactions/zaps/all tabs in v0.12.9.
Added under Feed & content next to keyword muting.
- Drop "custom Go relay" from Up Next — Vega Relay is live and is
Vega's default relay. Swap in real remaining work (NIP-96, WoT-
powered feed ranking).
- Add NIP-32 row — partial support via the language filter's script
tags.
Extends the WoT filter beyond the global feed: reaction pills, zap
totals, and all feed tabs (global, following, trending) now respect
the trust graph. Also drops the "new account" badge, since the
kind-0 created_at proxy was unreliable.
Softens the v0.12.8 forward-reference to Blossom — it will reappear
in a future release, not specifically this one, since it still needs
a safe-probe or allowlist (see WEBKIT_OOM_INVESTIGATION).
The badge marked notes from pubkeys whose kind-0 profile event was
newer than 60 days, on the theory that that approximated account age.
It doesn't: kind-0 created_at is "profile last updated," so any user
who refreshed their bio recently got flagged as new regardless of how
long they've been on Nostr. The proxy was misleading, so drop it
entirely until there's a real signal to use.
- NoteCard.tsx: remove isNewAccount badge.
- social.ts: remove batchFetchProfileAges, getProfileAge, and the
module-level profileAgeCache Map.
- nostr/index.ts: drop the barrel re-exports.
WoT was previously global-feed only. Now it filters notes on every feed
tab (global, following, trending) and also gates reaction pills and zap
totals — so a reaction from someone outside your social graph no longer
shows up in the counts.
- engagement.ts: wotSet param threaded through groupReactions,
fetchReactions, fetchZapCount, fetchBatchEngagement. Zaps are filtered
by the pubkey inside the zap request (the actual zapper), not the
outer event.pubkey (the LNURL wallet). Extracted getZapperPubkey and
getZapAmountSats.
- useReactions / useZapCount: cache key embeds WoT state so filtered
and unfiltered counts don't collide. Hooks subscribe to the WoT store
so toggling re-renders.
- feed store: reads WoT state and passes wotSet to fetchBatchEngagement,
seeds cache with the correct key.
- Feed.tsx: drop the tab === "global" guard.
- SettingsView.tsx: update copy to reflect the wider scope.
scripts/memory-test.sh records peak/min WebKit RSS per user-driven
phase (login, global scroll, following scroll, thread open, etc.)
and writes a TSV for side-by-side comparison between builds. Used
during the v0.12.8 OOM investigation and kept for future
regressions. Output files gitignored.
Add v0.12.8 entry to CHANGELOG.md with Blossom regex root cause,
WebKit rendering fix, and notification dedup. Add hard-won
Linux/WebKitGTK lessons section to CLAUDE.md (bitmap eviction,
MemoryPressureSettings process boundary, bisect-first, cache vs
leak) and flag safe Blossom URL auto-detection as pending for
v0.12.9.
Commit 214c42b (v0.12.6) added auto-detection of content-addressed
Blossom URLs (64-hex SHA-256 paths) as <img> elements. Blossom is
widespread in modern Nostr feeds — every feed page started rendering
3-5x more <img> elements. Combined with WebKitGTK's weak decoded-
bitmap eviction, feed scrolling grew the WebKit web process to
8-12 GB and triggered WebKit's self-kill threshold with:
Unable to shrink memory footprint of process (9022 MB) below
the kill threshold (8192 MB). Killed
Disable BLOSSOM_URL_REGEX in parseContent(). Real Blossom images
shared via standard upload flows (with proper extensions) still
render. Proper reintroduction (HEAD request + Content-Type
validation, or known-server whitelist) planned for v0.12.9.
Also restore feed depth caps to pre-crisis values now that memory
is under control:
- MAX_FEED_SIZE 30 → 200 (v0.12.6 baseline)
- fetchFollowFeed limit 30 → 100
- fetchGlobalFeed fetch 80 → 100
- Following tab slice 30 → 100
The earlier 30-caps were themselves OOM firefighting that shipped
in v0.12.7 and were no longer needed.
Memory verified 2026-04-16: oscillates 1.1-1.6 GB across all tabs
(Global / Following / Trending / Media / profile / thread) under
heavy use with embedded relay enabled. No crashes. Elastic cache
behaviour rather than monotonic leak — memory spikes briefly on
content loads and reclaims within seconds.
See private_docs/WEBKIT_OOM_INVESTIGATION.md for the full
investigation (4 days of chasing symptoms before finding the
one-line regex as the real cause).
- followNotes capped at 30 (was 80) — following feed was rendering 2.7x more
notes than global, causing 4GB+ spike on media-heavy follow content
- fetchFollowFeed limit 80→30 to match
- WEBKIT_FORCE_SOFTWARE_RENDERING=1 replaces WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1
(compositing mode killed Wayland path → blank window on Hyprland)
- HardwareAccelerationPolicy::Never → OnDemand (Never also caused blank screen)
- set_enable_page_cache(false) — SPA never navigates, bfcache is pure waste
- Removed duplicate fetchNotifications calls on login (was firing 3x in 8s)
- First notification poll delayed 8s→90s to avoid competing with feed load
- Result: login 3600MB→453MB, following feed crash→737MB, plateau at ~950MB
New users now choose topics after backing up their key. Selected interests
are saved to localStorage (wrystr_interests) and surfaced as clickable
hashtag pills in the Following feed empty state, giving new users a path
into content without auto-following strangers.
Flow: welcome → create → backup → interests → app
Login path is unchanged.
SHA-256 hash filenames from content-addressed storage (Blossom/NIP-96)
now always treated as images regardless of extension. Also broaden
IMAGE_EXTENSIONS to cover avif, bmp, tiff, jp2 and common variants.
- DM messages now parse and render URLs as clickable accent links
- Image URLs show inline in the bubble (max-h-48)
- nostr:naddr and mentions rendered as styled clickable links
- nostr:nevent quotes show a subtle indicator
- Media URLs (video/audio/youtube etc.) rendered as clickable links
- parseContent regex now case-insensitive for nostr: prefix; entity
lowercased before nip19.decode for robustness
- renderTextSegments: add case for quote type (↩ note indicator)
- All selected images now upload and insert correctly (was: only last
image kept due to stale content closure in loop)
- Images inserted as a block with proper newline padding
- Thumbnail strip thumbnails are now clickable — opens a lightbox;
click overlay to dismiss
- NoteCard: title tooltip on truncated name and NIP-05
- NoteActions: emoji pill buttons dim (opacity-50) while disabled
- DMView: title tooltip on truncated conv name; focus ring on send button
- RelaysView: title tooltip on truncated relay URL
- OnboardingFlow: title tooltips on npub/nsec (nsec only when revealed)
- ArticleEditor: visible focus indicator on title and body textareas
- Move DMView console.log/error behind debug.log/error (silent in prod)
- Replace hard-coded text-[#ffffff] with text-white in NoteContent overlay
- Theme-ify Vimeo and Tidal media cards (bg-accent/15 instead of
bg-black/40 and bg-white/10) so they adapt to light themes
- Convert Vimeo play icon SVG to currentColor for theme-aware tinting
- Add aria-label to update banner dismiss button
- Replace remaining '...' with unicode ellipsis in loading states
- Fix bg-white toggle thumbs in Settings (broke on dark themes)
- Eliminate 2px layout shift when switching Media feed tabs
- Unify "Follow"/"Mute" capitalization in NoteCard context menu
- Replace ASCII "..." with unicode ellipsis across compose/search/article
- Add rounded-sm to dropdowns, emoji picker, post/reply buttons
- Add aria-labels to sidebar toggle and onboarding copy buttons
- Add role=tablist/tab/aria-selected to login mode tabs
- Replace inline width/height styles with Tailwind w-16 h-16 in ProfileView
- Replace inline transform style with rotate-90 class in SettingsView
- Unify sidebar active state opacity (bg-accent/8 → bg-accent/10)
- Pad sidebar badges with py-0.5 for consistent pill height
- Match thread reply button sizing to compose post button
- Use var(--font-reading) on non-zen article title for consistency
- Format 'saved Xs ago' as minutes/hours after 60s
- Unify expand chevron to ▶ + rotate-90 pattern
- PollWidget: transition-all → transition-colors (no layout animation)
- Remove cryptic 'Ctrl+Enter' hint from compose and thread reply
NIP-1068 polls: create and vote on polls inline in the feed.
Switch default relay to custom Go relay (relay2.veganostr.com).
Note action icons with tooltips, sidebar icon cleanup,
search dedup fix, thread indentation fix.
