The app now behaves coherently for users without a signer (fully logged
out, or signed in with an npub). No broken Publish buttons, no dead-end
"Not logged in" toasts.
- Add useCanSign() hook in src/stores/user.ts as the single source of
truth for write-capability. Captures both "no pubkey" and
"npub-only login" states.
- ReadOnlyBanner now fires for both states (was only "no pubkey" before).
- Hide account-bound sidebar entries (Bookmarks, Messages, Notifications,
Zaps, V4V) in read-only mode. Read-only-OK views (Feed, Articles, Media,
Podcasts, Search, Follows, Relays, Settings, Support) stay visible.
- Guard every write surface, two patterns:
- Hide inline UI: ComposeBox, InlineReplyBox, NoteActions row, NoteCard
context menu, ArticleFeed "Write article", FollowsView per-row
follow/unfollow, ThreadView root reply, PollWidget vote controls,
RelaysView "Publish list", PodcastPlayerBar ShareButton.
- "Sign in to X" CTA: ArticleEditor publish, QuoteModal post, ZapModal,
EditProfileForm save. CTAs open LoginModal.
- ProfileView edit/follow/mute/zap/DM buttons each gated by canSign.
- ArticleView like/repost/comment/bookmark/zap each gated by canSign.
- Belt-and-suspenders runtime guards in user store follow/unfollow.
Bookmark / mute stores already swallow publish errors via .catch(() => {}),
so they don't need explicit runtime guards.
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).
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
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.
- Add audio.load() reset to prevent cascading failures between episodes
- Add onPlaying event handler for reliable post-buffer playback in WebKitGTK
- Add 15s loading timeout with user-friendly error for broken audio URLs
- Fix V4V LNURL-pay: use Tauri HTTP plugin instead of CORS-blocked browser fetch
- Fix Podcast Index API: use Tauri HTTP plugin for V4V enrichment
- Fall back to Podcast Index enclosure URL when Fountain.fm CDN is broken
- Update Lightning address to jure@getalby.com (Alby cloud migration)
- Add broad HTTPS scope for LNURL-pay across Lightning providers
- Import fetch from @tauri-apps/plugin-http (browser fetch was CORS-blocked)
- Add fountain.fm to Tauri HTTP capability scope
- Extract og:audio meta tag for reliable audio URL resolution
- Parse OG title into show name + episode title
Embedded relay (strfry-lite in Rust) stores events locally in SQLite.
On startup, syncs user notes, follow feed (24h), mentions (7d), and
profile/contacts from remote relays into the local relay. Uses since
timestamp for incremental syncs. Toggle in Settings with event count
and DB size display. Add webkit2gtk GPU acceleration workaround and
connectToRelays safety timeout for NDK hang.
Named after Jurij Vega (1754-1802), Slovenian mathematician who made
knowledge accessible through his logarithm tables. Rebrand before
OpenSats application (April 1).
- Product name, window title, identifiers, binary name all renamed
- Cargo package: wrystr -> vega, wrystr_lib -> vega_lib
- PKGBUILD: wrystr -> vega (new AUR package name)
- Release workflow: artifact names, release text updated
- README: new tagline referencing Jurij Vega
- DB migration: auto-renames wrystr.db -> vega.db on first launch
- Keyring service name kept as "wrystr" for backward compatibility
- localStorage keys kept as wrystr_* to preserve existing user data
Pending manual steps:
- Rename GitHub repo hoornet/wrystr -> hoornet/vega
- Create new AUR package vega-git, orphan wrystr-git
- Update local .desktop launcher
Bookmarks load instantly from DB cache, then fetch missing notes
from relays in background. Articles feed shows cached kind-30023
events immediately on the latest tab. Both persist to SQLite for
instant load on next visit.
Followers now load instantly from SQLite on startup, then merge
relay results in background. Own profile name/picture loads from
DB cache so sidebar badge never shows raw npub on slow relays.
WebKitGTK can't serialize FormData with Blob objects through Tauri's
HTTP plugin, throwing "InvalidStateError: Unable to read form data
blob". Build the multipart/form-data body manually as raw bytes
instead. Also add void.cat and nostrimg.com to the HTTP scope.
Notifications now load instantly from SQLite on startup instead of
waiting for relay responses. New events merge in as they arrive.
Read state persists in DB across restarts.
Also: filter profile owner from WoT followers list, make "+N more"
clickable to expand, fix reaction throttle queue jamming on errors.
Query Vertex Verify Reputation API (kind 5312) for each profile and
display "Followed by people you trust" with clickable top-follower
avatars. Includes in-memory cache, request dedup, and graceful
fallback when logged out or API unreachable.
