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
Threads now render the focused note immediately instead of showing a
loading skeleton. Root + ancestors fetch in parallel, timeouts cut
from 10s to 5s per round-trip, ancestor lookups from 5s to 2s.
Trending feed adds a base recency score so notes always appear even
when engagement data times out from relays.
Hidden dev tool showing NDK uptime, live subscription status,
per-relay connection state, per-tab last-updated timestamps,
and recent feed diagnostics log. Polls every 2s while visible.
Closes with Ctrl+Shift+D, Escape, or X button.
- Relay status badge in feed header: shows connected/total relay count with
color coding (green >75%, yellow 25-75%, red <25%), hover tooltip with
per-relay status
- Toast notification system: transient messages for connection lost,
reconnecting, relay reset, and back-online events
- Per-tab "last updated" relative timestamp in feed header (global,
following, trending tracked independently)
- Consolidated all relay management into RelaysView (removed duplicate
relay section from Settings); per-relay remove button on health cards
- Show all supported NIP badges on relay cards (was filtering to 11 notable)
- Tooltips on relay status dots explaining green/yellow/red/gray meaning
- Fix relay removal with trailing-slash URL normalization
- Fix stale health results lingering after relay removal
- Add acknowledgements section to README
Global feed now uses a persistent live subscription (closeOnEose: false)
so new notes stream in real-time instead of requiring manual refresh.
Inspired by Wisp's streaming architecture.
Every fetchEvents call across the entire codebase now uses
fetchWithTimeout with groupable: false — prevents NDK from
batching/reusing stale subscriptions. This fixes Articles, DMs,
Notifications, Zaps, and Trending hanging indefinitely.
Also adds since filters on global (2h) and follow (24h) feeds
to ensure relay freshness, and fixes ArticleFeed re-fetch bug
where follows changes wiped latest tab results.
The liveness probe in ensureConnected was causing a death spiral —
it force-disconnected working relays when a 3s probe timed out,
then resetNDK killed new connections before they could establish.
Now ensureConnected trusts relay.connected and only reconnects when
zero relays are connected. All fetchEvents calls have timeouts
(5-10s) so nothing hangs. resetNDK kept as background-only recovery
in the connection monitor after 30s of continuous failure.
Also adds feed diagnostics (feedDiagnostics.ts) for tracking fetch
timing, event freshness, and relay states via console helpers.
- Fix mute button having no effect in Media Feed (missing filter)
- Fix notification toggle switches overlapping labels (sizing + shrink-0)
- Fix external links not opening in system browser (use Tauri opener plugin)
- Fix trending refresh showing no visual feedback (clear list on force refresh)
- Fix emoji reactions inaccessible behind WebKitGTK context menu (visible + button)
- Add emoji picker to compose box, inline reply, and thread reply
- New shared EmojiPicker component with categorized emoji groups
- ComposeBox: remove hard 280-char post limit (Nostr has none); show counter
only after 3000 chars with yellow/red warnings at 3500/4000
- Article reader: switch from monospace to serif font (Georgia stack) at 17px
for comfortable long-form reading; article preview gets serif at 15px
- ArticleView: add 2px accent-colored reading progress bar (sticky top,
scroll-driven, smooth transition)
- Connection indicator: data-aware checking (wraps fetchEvents), 30s recent-
fetch grace period, 25s offline grace (5 checks) before marking disconnected
Add GStreamer codec dependencies to PKGBUILD and install instructions
to README for Linux video/audio playback. Add periodic relay pool
status check so connection indicator stays accurate after reconnects.
Four features shipped in this release:
- Feed reply context: replies show "↩ replying to @name" above the
note content; clicking fetches and opens the parent thread
- NIP-65 outbox model: fetchUserRelayList + publishRelayList +
fetchUserNotesNIP65 in client.ts; profile notes fetched via the
author's write relays; "Publish relay list to Nostr" button in
Settings (kind 10002)
- Notifications: new store (notifications.ts) + NotificationsView;
🔔 sidebar nav item with unread badge; DM nav item also shows
unread conversation count; badges clear on open/select
- Keyboard shortcuts: useKeyboardShortcuts hook + HelpModal;
n=compose, /=search, j/k=feed nav with ring highlight,
Esc=back, ?=help overlay

- Rust: rusqlite (bundled) with WAL mode; wrystr.db in app data dir
- db_save_notes: upsert batch of raw event JSON, prune to 500 kind-1 notes
- db_load_feed: return N most-recent kind-1 raws for instant startup display
- db_save_profile / db_load_profile: cache NDKUserProfile JSON by pubkey
- Falls back to in-memory SQLite if the on-disk open fails
- src/lib/db.ts: typed invoke wrappers; all errors silenced (cache is best-effort)
- feed store: loadCachedFeed() populates notes before relay connects;
loadFeed() merges fresh+cached (so relay returning fewer notes doesn't
erase cached ones), then saves fresh notes to SQLite
- useProfile: reads SQLite cache to show avatar/name instantly while
relay request is in-flight; saves result to SQLite after relay responds
- Feed: calls loadCachedFeed() first → notes visible before relay connects
