v0.4.1

0074af9

0.4.1

Ticktack 0.4.1

This is a bug fixes and tweaks patch... and a couple of really tiny features D:
Will be released some time in the next week I hope

Here's what it includes so far:

fix the search page results (stops them repeating)
refactor of all the streams to be more performant:
- much faster private message display
- all streams are now 'stepped' at their source, making them much less memory intensive
front page now displays blogs + posts longer that 2500 chars.
markdown editor for blogs
- exposes an alternate editor if you prefer to write in md
- TODO - to get this out quickly, this currently doesn't support auto-saving of drafts in md editor mode
unread count refactor
- massive tidy up of the code (which might make it easy to learn from the pattern...)
- now makes counting a lot lighter, by making a global cache that is only initialised once 😄
translations update

0.4.0 pre-release 1 Pre-release

Pre-release

This time we're releasing the majority of the features for this sprint as a pre-release. We expect there to be parts which need attention and tuning, and would love feedback!

New Features

A beautiful editor for writing

medium-style WYSIWIG
auto-saves draft of your writing as you write

Sharing

share blogs you've enjoyed with friends on the web
reshare blogs to your followers on scuttlebutt

This is built on the awesome work of :

@cel, @arj , @noffle ssb-viewer and blog plugins for that
@mikey's new resilient docker-based pub setup

Writing Stats and Notifications

quick overview of how people are engaging with your writing
click on specific pieces to filter view to show just stats on that piece

feeds to seeing who has been sharing, commenting on, and liking your work
easy way to quickly reply to comments within this view

This has been made easy with @matt's mutant and the support he's generously offered me.

Bugfixes

added Subscribe button back in (which I accidentally broke in the last installer!)

Features still to be build for 0.4

Backup & Restore your identity

This one is super exciting!
We are enabling users to export their private keys, and then safely restore their identity on another computer at a later date. (Note for people new to scuttlebutt - if you manage this poorly, you can fork your identity, and other peers will ignore your broken feed, so doing this well takes some care)

This is a pattern that others will be able to follow

This is going to be built on the work of

@dominic's recent ssb-ebt

EBT

This is a replication technology which will enable the safe identity restore, but also add performance improvements to replication - dramatically reducing the number of weighty connections the sbot is juggling, and the amount of network chatter needed to 'keep up to date'

This release folds in a bunch of the feedback from the Scuttlebutt community, and adds new speed-ups around subscriptions which makes the Ticktack super zippy
Enjoy ❤️
