Thanks to @Dr. The Daniel ๐ I now have a signer extension available that handles multiple accounts. Nos2x has served me well, but it's time to move on.

That's a whole lot of updates. More to come. Then I'm switching back to working on Chronicle for a bit.
Coming soon;
Kind 1111 replies. Whyyyyy did y'all do this?
Polls.
On this day.
Client tags.
That's enough for now.
View live streams soon on Plume ๐ฅณ
Yup, that's right. Recommended nostr apps. Because it's not all about one app, it's about the entire ecosystem.
If you've developed an app which should be in the list, let me know, here.

Bugs squashed. For now.
Now adding NSFW filters to everywhere I've missed as well as removing NSFW from the discovery carousels.
Then adding more apps to the apps page, then a new apps suggestions feature in the feed.

It's been a quiet week, but getting back on it now.
As of this morning, Plume now supports Ling Form content, NIP23, with share links, comments and reactions.
Unfortunately while doing that I somehow broke public profile searches and the mobile sidebar, so now Plume is more broken than it was earlier.
Still, it'll keep me busy this afternoon, squashing the bugs.
Worked hard to improve the public profile view and profile sharing experience.
From content discovery views in the non logged in view you can now track through the public profile, log in process and land on the users page ready to interact.
Also, anyone can share their plume profile link now and show people all the other stuff they do on nostr (more content to come).
There's also now a new links to apps button - it's going to be populated with some cool nostr apps for all sorts of things that people do with #nostr.
Feel free to add recommendations!
Small changes - market place updated to include nip 99 and nip 15 listings - all handled the same way at this time.
Market place contact seller button now renders DM interface which includes link to the item in question.
I've also added it to Google and Bing for indexing and linked to it from older Bitcoin focused websites that I still own.
GM #nostr - you're all awesome ๐
Just in case you haven't been told already today ๐
Should be doing these announcements from the Plume account, really.
Yes, discovery just got a whole load easier on Plume. Even visitors who haven't logged in get to see the kinds of content that are listed on nostr.
Here's the mobile view;

The mobile rendering is below this:

Not bad, the last 24 hours has yielded the following;
The revamped conversation modal now loads, renders and refocuses near instantly, as opposed to 8-10 seconds.
The follow packs now have an individual follow selected button in each pack, rather than having to scroll all the way to the bottom.
Shorts have been redesigned so on desktop they appear in 3 columns, on tablets 2 columns and on mobile, one. There's more to add there, like reactions per video, zaps per video etc. That's for another day.
Now, next is a feed fix. I added bugs the other day. Once that's fixed, I'll be adding new content discovery methods to the main feed.
The idea is to surface some of the other stuff people do, besides posting notes, otherwise this protocol is just ntr amd that's rubbish.
Not much in the way of changes the last few days as @Matt is a crippled old man.
Still, Plume now features proper categorised lists. The back ups function has been adjusted to account for these new lists as well.
Up and coming in the next day or two is a fix for the conversation modal and improving the public, not logged in, profile viewer....then....
A big shake up to the feed. We're really all about content discovery with Plume so there's going to be a whole new way to see the things that people do on #nostr - can't wait to make that real.
Happy Sunday everyone ๐ฅณ
Busy day.
Fixed outbox model so your relays are now pulled and used on log in. In the event you don't have relays set or you're a new user it defaults to the pre set relays.
Fixed websocket connections when switching between tabs - now closes connections when they're no longer needed.
Upgraded the music and podcast tab contents with new styling in keeping with the site.
Upgraded photography, market, music and podcast tabs to progressively render content as it loads, leading to a much cleaner user experience, dramatically cutting delays, usually.
Also updated tabs in profile view to progressively render objects as they load.
Also updated public profile view (the pre log in one) to do the same, and broke it. That's a problem for tomorrow.
Oops. ๐
It's true, public profile searches are now a thing on Plume. Just give someone your NIP05 tell them to pop over to plume.website and they don't even have to log in or create an account, they can look you up amd see what you do on this protocol ๐ฅณ๐ช๐

Not much done yesterday except working on the profile pages - they were rendering notes, then vanishing them, then showing them, then vanishing them, then showing them for a final time.
It was soon sorted, but updates to rendering overall have slowed and are occasionally glitchy.
The long term plan is a relay dedicated to profile pages so that Plume always uses its best resource first.
Now, I've got a whole load of tasks to complete from UI improvements and new features. At least enough work for the next two weeks.
And, despite a few minor set backs, it's done. Feed types now render at the top of the feed area, instead of the side menu, leaving that to be all about account management etc.
Much better.
Now, digging in to some profile rendering issues and then, probably, improving the conversation modal view.
