Introducing nostr.blue v0.6.7
This version brings a range of new features and bug fixes to the project that aim to make using the site more enjoyable! There's so many in fact I won't go through them all here. Instead you can check out the PR for a full run down. Here's some of my favorite's though:
Custom Reactions - The site already supported custom emojis for gifs so I decided to take that further and build a feature I've always wanted for Amethyst. You can now set your top 10 favorite emojis or custom emojis to be used as reactions. Once set your number 1 response will be your default reaction. If you right click on the reaction then you'll be able to pick from any of your custom reactions or jump in to update them.
Bring Your Own Gif - One of my favorite features of nostr.blue is being able to use nostr based gifs on posts. This makes responding to posts way more fun but there's times when no one has uploaded the gif you want to use. Those days are gone! Now when you open the gif selector you'll see a new upload option at the bottom that let's you upload your gif to nostr to be used by anyone!
Quote reshares - This is a feature I know @peachyhodl has been waiting for. Now when you go to reshare a post you'll be asked if you want to reshare or quote the note. Reshares work just like you've been using and quote will open the posting field with the referenced note already applied.
Updated Explore - The explore page used to just be a global feed of kind1 posts. Those have been moved to the dropdown on the homepage while /explore will now offer a deeper way to find more content with NIP-90 DVMs.

Please let me know if you run into any bugs or issues while using the site. It's still very much a pre-release but progress continues towards a stable release. I'll probably start work on the 0.7 branch this month.
