    Gossip Release 0.13.0

    Gossip is a nostr client for desktop.

    Gossip is open sourced at https://github.com/mikedilger/gossip

    This is a major release with the following changes:

    • File Metadata support (NIP-92 / NIP-94)
      • imeta data in incoming events is utilized, including testing the hash,
        and displaying a placeholder blurhash (until the event loads)
      • Attached files get imeta attachments when posting including url,
        metadata (m), hash (x), size, dim, and blurhash
      • Failed media loading now shows why
    • Blossom support (BUD-01, BUD-02)
      • Can attach local images and/or videos to your notes, which get uploaded
        to your blossom server.
      • Synchronizes with your nostr-saved blossom configuration, and you can
        edit that
    • NIP-89 Support - Recommended Application Handlers
      • Gossip collects recommendations published by your contacts
      • These become menu options for opening events
      • You can disable any of them you don't want
      • You can recommend these to your friends
      • You can import a new handler (published by an application developer)
      • Support is only for 'web' handlers
    • Search on relays (NIP-50)
      • You must choose your search relays first.
    • Followers and Followed
      • On the Person page, you can view who someone follows, and who follows
        them (including for yourself)
      • Computing who follows them is expensive and inaccurate
    • Undo Send - for 10 seconds (or whatever you configure) you can undo sending
    • Thread replies now sorted by date, except author replies come first
    • Cancelling a draft asks if you are sure, so misclicks don't erase your
      carefully crafted manifesto.
    • Inbox indicator showing how many messages are waiting
    • Feeds no longer inject new events and scroll while you are trying to read.
      Instead, you will get a "Show New Updates" link to press when you are ready.
    • Every feed has it's own separate "include replies" switch now
    • Relays can now be tested to see whether they are fit for purpose
    • Zap amount can now be typed in (or slid with a slider)
    • Support for pubkey hints in 'e' and 'q' tags
    • Support for 'E' and 'A' tags and kind 1111 Comments (NIP-22)
    • Font update to support more unicode codepoints
    • NIP-46 replies with NIP-44 encryption if the client used it.
    • NIP-44 encryption now used for private contacts and private lists.
    • FFMpeg 7.1 support
    • Relay URLs now rendered as links to the relay config page
    • build.sh script to help users choose features when compiling
    • New command line commands: delete_by_kind, disable_relay
    • Subscription batching for naddr searches
    • Database compacting reduced to once per week, and handles out of space error
    • Some theme color changes
    • Relay scoring adjusted
    • Likes and zaps data updated more frequently than before
    • Default relays for new users have been tested and updated
    • Many fixes
