Nostr Web Client

GOSSIP 0.9.0 has been released

git: branch '0.9', tag 'v0.9.0'

Upgrade Instructions

- SQLite 3 code has been removed. If you are running version 0.7.x of gossip, you need to run a 0.8.x version of gossip at least once in order to keep your old data. Otherwise you can just start fresh.

New Features

- Person Lists:

Curate your own lists of people

View a feed of just those people

Save to nostr events, synchronize with other nostr clients.

Mark members private to save secretly in encrypted contents.

- Onboarding wizard: Steps a new user through what is needed to get set up

- Support for the new nostr CLOSED message.

- Tagging now works by just typing an '@' and the name and picking from a popup list.

- Restyle of DM Chat

- Restyle of Profile pages

- New login page

- Improvements to event deletion (multiple issues resolved)

- "show more" on long notes

- scrolling improvements

- name improvements (which name to use)

- Better tracking of threads and replies (reposts, replies via 'a')

- Command line commands: reprocess_recent, print_followed, print_muted, bech32_decode, bech32_encode_event_addr, print_relay, add_person_relay, print_person, import_event, print_person_lists, add_person_list, rename_person_list,

- Relay communications are kinder to relays

- Documentation reworked

- TLS now defaults to rust code, but native (operating system provided) root certificates.

- Restructured as a library and a binary, so that people who want a different UI are free to replace the UI while continuing to use the underlying library.

- Lots of little things I didn't bother to add to this list. See the git history for the whole truth.

I'll download it. Tip: make aplimage releases so it works in every Linux

Mike Dilger ☑️ 2y ago

Tip: I did that, they didn't work, I fought the tools that built them, I decided AppImage was too hard.

YsYe7Rg5O$JeULRiNnJehvlYjlGrxX5xY_tQgpe5NsP9 2y ago

I created an AppImage using Nix. Consider it experimental, but I got it to run on a few distros using software rendering or virtGL.

Installed 0.9.0, started from scratch, entered my nsec and Gossip asked for a relay... eh, why not just read my relay list from some relay?

marco balmer 2y ago

Adding npubs to people lists now works :-y This was broken (at least for me) in 0.8.2.

Great work nostr:npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c - thank you very much.

nostr:npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c Thank you! The upgrade from 0.8.1 was seamless. It took me a minute to find a person's posts from the person, but now that I know, I know. The button is on the right.

badonyx 2y ago

another great release. homebrew package updates in progress.

nostr:npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c, I had a issue with text fields and yanked/pasted content in this new version.

If i yank a content, from another application, to a text field inside the gossip, it will not be pasted.

The reverse only occurs inside gossip.

But if yank from gossip and paste to another application, it works well.

Mike Dilger ☑️ 2y ago

I can copy and paste from other apps into gossip. And i don't think we changed anything so fundamental as to affect that. But nostr:npub1hlq93jdtkfg29a8s7fqzzzh82q3pkc20rxucwt4geh6e56wk3y2qxdz5wg might know better.

qlrd 2y ago

There's a way to debug the yank/paste actions on gossip?

Mike Dilger ☑️ 2y ago

I can't think of how. Gossip uses egui, and it never supported unix-style pastes (like middle-button paste). Only CTRL-V worked. It has been like that since day-1. Can you verify that CTRL-V does not paste for you?

qlrd 2y ago

CRTL-X Works.

But CRTL+V, or right's mouse button not works.

The "paste action" only work when a given "Paste button" is clicked.

Maybe | Arch | Egui interaction issue...🥺

qlrd 2y ago

I was able to catch an clipboard error during paste action using `RUST_LOG=debug`.

With this, a issue was created on repo (didnt paste the link from clipboard, typed every letter 😅): https://github.com/mikedilger/gossip/issues/617

bu5hm4nn 2y ago

To debug, as posted by nostr:npub1kyglvayh649etnjf2jznlynsrx0uz63vaehuc2pjhwdtj9vph88qyvph68, run the program with `RUST_LOG="debug"` or single out the clipboard with `RUST_LOG="info,egui_winit::clipboard=debug"`.

qlrd 2y ago

Had some results with `WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 RUST_LOG="info,egui_winit::clipboard=debug" gossip |& grep data`, but unable to interpret them according https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1250

LuisSP 2y ago

I had the same issue as nostr:npub1xg23m9ez26ueekpzlm7fu734wpzktpwqjwyhlvy76xv6aynf4cpqf8qlrd

Tried to C/P a link from Brave, and inside a new post it would paste the last text I had ctrl-c from inside gossip instead of the newly ctrl-c link

But it solved itself when I restarted Gossip.
