0.0.55 released!
- discord import now registers your discord id as "validated" so folks can search for you by discord id.
- discord server importer now requires a zip export rather than being api based (that was fast!) -- base importer still allows you to set up channels / categories though.

BBCodes and other rich text editor tooling, like post quoting, video embeds, and full markdown support now live!

Is.. is that good?

whenever we push code to update the app, we take it offline whenever there's data migrations needed to keep things tidy. You should see a "we're doing a release" blurb there if it breaks. It should come back within seconds.

Today’s backlog:
- bug fixes from roster.pub/feedback
- bbcode and markdown support, embeds, uploads, images
- new spaces index and discovery index
- custom avatars and emoticons

Add your feature requests here: roster.pub/features

i mean i fixed it in like a few minutes so it's probably mid if nothing else

Dear Roster beta test users; reporting feedback is great. Reporting how something is “shitass” is not great.

Nevertheless, the bug was fixed.

zero-trust vault now online! you will be prompted the next time you interact with your contact list or contacts to create a new passphrase for your vault; this is similar to a 1password vault passphrase, and keeps your data encrypted in transit and at rest. Try it out!

Feature Requests · Roster Roster is a contact-graph-first social platform where your contacts are encrypted, your communities are portable, and nobody mines your relationships for profit.

also, if you have a good idea for what to add for the forum experience, please make your voice heard: roster.pub/features

Added a desktop-ready Tauri path that builds from a dedicated desktop client output and supports native integrations (notifications, file dialogs, filesystem access). Desktop app should be available in the next few days!

- E2EE pipeline: Device key encryption for contacts at rest, Signal session management, encrypted DM cache, sender key distribution for Spaces, safety numbers, key backup/restore. -- this should make the IM surface significantly more stable

- Signal Protocol hardening: Fixed prekey upload/fetch format alignment, signed prekey ID collisions, and error propagation during key init. Sessions are more reliable now.

- Community features: Feedback board, feature requests with voting

- Sidebar messaging: DMs now live in the sidebar instead of a separate page. Click a contact, start typing. No navigation, no context switch.

- Roster drawer: Your contact list is now a slide-out panel. Unified search across contacts, Roster directory, and Bluesky

Made a Stoat and Fluxer account.
Basically, I'm just gonna join more different messenger apps since Discord is whatever.

Going back to my old days of having AOL, MSN, and Yahoo messengers open all at the same time.

authentication fixes going out now; we found an issue where certain scenarios might possibly leak non-ciphertext roster info (personal contact list) -- it should be live on production shortly.

Big forum updates going live now!
