A profile shows the hashtags an account features as chips opening their feed; under another account's header is what the
persona keeps of it for itself alone: for one it follows, a bell (follow with notify), the languages of its posts that
reach the home feed (follow with languages[]) and Recommend (endorsements, private here), and for any account a private
note saved on blur or with Save. Settings edits the persona's featured hashtags (added by name or from those used lately,
10 at most) and its reading preferences (/clientapi/avatar/private/preferences), which CascadingState keeps per persona
and the card applies to sensitive media and content warnings. A hashtag's tab features it on the profile. Explore has Who
to follow (/api/v2/suggestions, dismissed for good after asking); Administration has Staff picks. The Direct tab follows
the direct stream's conversation events; status notifications show the post. The follows CSV carries notify and languages.
Verified: Release build, 0 errors (the 3 warnings were there before). Not run against PrivaPub or in the pasture.

Administration has a Custom emoji section (EmojiPanel, data-admin-section=emoji): the server's emoji by category, added
with a picture streamed from the file, changed (category, picker, disabled, picture; never the shortcode) and deleted,
asked first, with PrivaPub's 409 and 422 in the dialog. EmojiService reads /clientapi/admin/emoji and, for everyone,
/api/v1/custom_emojis, kept a day in localStorage (CustomEmojiCache) and read again after a change here. EmojiPicker
(a DDropdown sheet on a phone, rendered only while open) offers them by category with common unicode emoji, searchable:
the composer writes the choice at the caret, a card and the announcements banner react with it. The composer suggests
custom emoji after `:` and two letters. Custom reactions toggle as :shortcode: and show their picture, notifications of
one too; located posts, announcements and NavMenu's persona names render the server's emoji.
Verified: Release build, 0 errors (the 3 warnings were there before). Not run against PrivaPub or in the pasture.

Administration's Users & personas (administrators): logins searched and opened into their personas and groups; roles,
bans, two-factor reset and deletion of a login; silence, suspension and deletion of a persona; a group deleted. Accounts
(moderators): local personas and remote accounts searched or listed as moderated, silenced and suspended with a staff
note and a warning. Reports resolve with an action. ActDialog asks for the note, the warning or the password and is the
act's confirmation. A login deletes its own persona and the groups it owns with its password. Suspended personas can't
be chosen; one refused a token mid-session moves the session to another, or to none, once. Warnings show in
notifications, limited accounts on their profile, and moderators remove a post from its card.

PrivaPub now fills `moved` once a move is believed; the profile shows it, linking
the new account's profile. The e2e opens the account SocialPub's moves scenario
moved and finds the new one named.

Settings, which held only the theme, now belong to the persona too:
- its profile (update_credentials, a new PATCH in IHttpService): pictures,
name, biography and fields as written, locked, bot, discoverable,
indexable, and how its posts start (visibility, language, sensitive
media, who may quote them); the composer starts at that visibility;
- the root's personas, each used in turn, and a new one made;
- the accounts it muted or blocked and the servers it blocked, each undone
there, a server blocked from a pasted address or handle;
- its follows, lists, blocks, mutes, blocked servers and bookmarks exported
and imported as the CSV files Mastodon writes (PortabilityService): an
import resolves each row through PrivaPub, one at a time, and can stop.
Administration opens to moderators: reports, resolved there; and for
administrators the servers blocked for everyone and the federation
statistics (traffic by server, delivery success and latency, the crawler).
The Direct tab pages conversations, badges the unread ones, and a card
marks one read or takes it off the list; opening one reads it.
A remote thread is read again 4 and 15 seconds after it opens, since
PrivaPub then fetches the replies its servers hold. A thread its
community locked shows a lock instead of a reply button, reactions stay
visible below a content warning, and a searched handle opens its
account's profile whatever else matched.
The e2e tests cover each: the profile saved and read back, a persona made,
servers blocked and imported, follows exported, an instance block and the
statistics as the pasture's admin, a conversation read and removed, and a
reply only Mastodon held appearing in its thread.

tests/e2e (Playwright for .NET 1.61.0 on xunit v3, the Chromium 1228 already
cached, never downloaded, never in CI) runs the published app against
SocialPub's pasture and its town: run.sh publishes it with the Pasture
environment (wwwroot/appsettings.Pasture.json, published only then; the
deploy fails if it ever ships) and serves it as https://decepub.test. The
tests sign in through the real login page and persona chooser, check that
every request goes only to decepub.test and privapub.test with the right
credential on the right API, render one post of each kind from each
platform as its author wrote it, and check every action on the other
side of the wire (town.sh stored): favourites, boosts and replies with
their undoing, follows from a profile, votes, reactions. Each test is also
a cell of the town's report (out/client.jsonl). They found two PrivaPub
bugs fixed there (a blocked author's status answered null; sensitive
remote media invented a content warning) and a reply addressed to nobody.
New in the app, all checked by those tests:
- profiles at /account/{id}: header, bio, fields, counts, the account's
posts as posts, posts and replies, or media, and follow, unfollow,
cancel a request, mute and block (AccountService); post authors and
notifications open them in the app;
- search at /search: accounts, posts and hashtags, a handle or an address
resolved by PrivaPub;
- poll voting on the card, and emoji reactions shown and given with one
tap; before a persona's first reaction or vote it is told once that
both are public (PublicNoticeService, the owner's decision);
- follow requests answered from their notification.

One sign-in for both of PrivaPub's APIs: the root logs in on /clientapi,
picks a persona, and each persona gets its own Mastodon token in
exchange for the JWT (PersonaExchange). HttpService picks credentials
and JSON by route (JWT and camelCase for /clientapi, the persona token
and snake_case for /api, nothing for /oauth), retries a refused persona
token once, and records every request for the nerd stats.
The feed page is three columns: navigation with a persona switcher, the
feed with a tab per kind (home, local, federated, nearby, communities
and circles, direct, notifications, favourites, bookmarks, hashtags),
and a 3D globe that looks at the spherical mean of the posts in view
and draws a pulse and an arc to a hovered one. Posts sit at their own
place, their event's venue, the reader (located posts) or their
author's server as PrivaPub publishes it. Cards favourite, boost,
bookmark, reply, mute, block and delete; the composer posts with a
content warning, visibility, media and alt text, or as a located post.
Older pages load as the end nears; newer ones are polled while visible.
Nerd stats in tooltips: provenance, author and server, place, media,
counts, paging, the globe's camera and frame rate.
The mock (Faker, MessagesService, the Message models and store) and the
OIDC template leftovers are gone. Strings in English and Italian.
