thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 e94e32d198 The globe's nerd stats are instruments in the scene
Owner decision 2026-10-06: the globe tells its numbers where they belong instead of in a table. instruments.js adds
one three.js group to globe.gl's scene and a DOM overlay of chips:
- the Sun: a ray and a bead over the subsolar point (with the irradiance), the day/night line, the golden hour and
  the three twilights, the declination, the noon and midnight meridian, and the analemma at this hour, its stretch to
  the next equinox or solstice brighter;
- a focused post's place: its horizon, its Sun's line and height, and its day lit on its latitude, with one chip for
  the place, the phase, the solar time, the elevation and the day's length;
- the tropics and polar circles (the axial tilt), the CDN ring, the view's centre and spread, and rings around the
  posts in view;
- a small orrery in the top left corner, re-anchored to the camera before each render, with the Earth–Sun distance,
  the seasons, the next equinox or solstice and the next perihelion or aphelion stacked under it;
- the frame rate as a ring around the globe; the rest (points, textures, countries, renderer) as a legend.

The chips are placed after each frame globe.gl draws, clear of each other, the moment's caption, the orrery and the
legend, and slide back inside the canvas at its edge; country names keep clear of them. Geometry changes only inside
a wake globe.js already made, so an idle globe still draws nothing. three.js's classes come from globe.gl's own
objects, looked for before each render until its globe is in the scene. A phone's banner draws the day/night line
and the subsolar point; full screen draws everything, and a globe built in the banner now moves its camera back when
opened full screen.

GlobePanel loses both tooltips and the one-second poll that read every post into a table; the Sun's rows stay as
screen-reader text, and a failed start says so. Seven keys only the tooltips used are gone.

GlobeTests (desktop with a located post written from Milano and pinned, in both themes and turned to the subsolar
point; a phone's banner, full screen and back; an idle globe drawing no frame) pass. Under SwiftShader the instruments
cost 1–3 ms of a ~50 ms frame and under 0.1 ms of script; FeedPerfTests' heaps are unchanged.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 5522fe4fbb Pictures open in the app
A tap on a picture opened its file in a new tab, leaving the app (and, on a phone, its place in the feed). It now opens
MediaViewer: the whole screen on a phone, a large dialog from md, the picture whole with its alt text under it, the
post's other pictures by the previous and next buttons or the arrow keys, and "Open original" for whoever wants the
file. Phone flow: a picture of a town post opens the viewer over the whole screen, which closes from its button.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 89cef25def Nerd stats open with a tap
On a touch screen a nerd-stats tooltip showed only through the browser faking hover, unreliably, and couldn't be
scrolled. Where the pointer can't hover (AppStatusService.CanHover), a tap on a NerdTip now opens its rows in a sheet
from the bottom; the trigger is focusable, says it opens a dialog, and is at least 44px on touch. A closed tooltip takes
no room any more (daisyUI only made it transparent, and one past a card's edge made a phone's feed scroll sideways),
and on touch it never shows. The rows are a component of their own (NerdRows), at 12px on phones. A card's More menu
has a Details entry on phones that gathers the post's, its author's, its place's or CDN's and its counts' rows in one
sheet. A picture's tip doesn't open on a tap, the picture does.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 dd38002682 Feed tabs say what they are
Below xl every feed tab but the selected one was a lone icon with no name, for a screen reader or a finger. DTab takes
an AccessibleName, which DTabs renders as the tab's label and tooltip, and FeedTabs names each tab; on a phone every
tab shows its name too. The strip is marked as one that scrolls sideways (data-scroll-x), says it holds the feeds, and
on a phone fades at the edge where more tabs wait (edge-fade-x, a scroll-driven animation where the browser has one);
the selected tab is brought into view when it changes (window.revealActive). Explore's tabs get the same.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 1c9773bab0 What can't be undone asks first
Deleting a post, taking it off the persona's wall, muting or blocking an account (from a card or a profile), leaving
a group, dropping a scheduled post and signing out acted at the first tap, a few pixels from their neighbours. They now
ask first: new ConfirmService (Ask returns whether the reader confirmed, as PublicNoticeService does) and ConfirmHost in
MainLayout, a sheet from the bottom on a phone and a dialog from md, with Cancel and the action named, in red when it
deletes or cuts off. Logout is a button that asks, then goes to /logout as before. The reversible ones (unmute,
unblock, removing a conversation from the list, a picture from the composer) don't ask; the inline confirms of lists,
filters and the login's deletion stay. The desktop tests that delete a reply, take a post off a wall or drop a
scheduled post confirm; a phone flow deletes a post after cancelling once.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 931b7fcff1 The globe opens full screen; a phone held sideways keeps its feed
On a phone the globe is a banner above the feed; a tap on it now opens it full screen over everything, with a close
button (Escape closes it too), the focus moving to that button and back, and the feed underneath kept as it was but out
of reach (inert). The camera refits the new shape. Held sideways, a phone (a window at most 30rem tall, the new short:
variant) has no room for the banner: the banner and its toggle give way to a button that opens the globe full screen.
isMobileMedia, which picks the first visit's default, agrees with Tailwind's md now (it was off by one) and counts a
phone held sideways. GlobePanel tells its state (data-globe-state). Phone flows: the globe opens full screen and
closes, and a sideways phone keeps a feed at least 180px tall with no sideways scroll.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 071bcce4b0 Writing on a phone: the composer rises as a sheet
On a phone the composer opened at the top of the feed whether or not the feed was scrolled there, and a reply, quote
or edit opened inside its card's 228px column. New PhoneSheet shows them as a sheet from the bottom of the screen below
md, over a dimmed page, with a heading and a close button (a tap outside or Escape closes it too); from md they stay in
place as before. On a phone a new post starts from a round button under the thumb (the feed keeps room for it at the
bottom), and the tabs' Post button shows from md. Opening the composer scrolls the feed to its top, and the composer's
words take the focus (DTextarea.Element). Picking a suggested mention or hashtag keeps the focus, and the phone's
keyboard, in the words (DButton.KeepFocus, and the words are focused again). The character count sits under the words
instead of over their last line, and the visibility menu names each choice.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 f1cb90ac03 The phone menu closes after a choice
On a phone the menu stayed open over the page after a link was tapped, and only the hamburger closed it. It now closes
on any navigation, on a persona switch, on a tap outside it (a dimmed backdrop) and on Escape; its height is capped at
the screen's (dvh) with its own scroll, and its width follows a narrow screen. The hamburger has a name ("Menu") and says
whether the menu is open. The header's logo is a link home and the persona's picture a 44px link to Settings (it was
30px). From md, the sidebar scrolls on its own when the window is short, as on a phone held sideways.

Settings has a Notifications section, also at /notifications/filtered: what notifications from people the persona does
not follow, people who do not follow it, new accounts, private mentions it did not ask for and limited accounts become
(accept, filter, drop), and the filtered ones, one request per account, let in (with that account from then on) or
dismissed. The Notifications tab says when requests wait. e2e: a stranger's like waits in a request reached from the
tab and comes back once let in; the policy and the stranger's permission are put back afterwards (Pasture.Mongo).

Another's profile and posts can be reported from the client (/api/v1/reports): a category, words, and for a remote
account a copy to its server, which PrivaPub sends from its own actor, never naming the persona. Who liked or boosted
a post opens from its card's menu (favourited_by, reblogged_by). e2e: a report from a Mastodon account's profile
reaches PrivaPub's moderators forwarded, and a post's likes and boosts list the persona who gave them; the admin
helper the tests share moves to Support.

The card marks an edited post with a button that opens its versions, newest first (/statuses/:id/history), each with
its time, warning and words; PrivaPub now has a remote post's earlier versions from Pleroma's formerRepresentations
too. The composer's e2e test opens the history after its edit. The wall test retries smuser's post while Smithereen
has not yet had the persona's Accept.

PrivaPub hosts what a persona's followers write on its wall (Smithereen's, FEP-400e) and shows posts written on walls
elsewhere to their owners' followers. A card names the wall (privapub.wall, data-wall, linking the profile), and one
written on the persona's own wall is taken off from the card's menu, which PrivaPub tells as a Remove and Smithereen
applies as a deletion. WallTests checks it against Smithereen.

An Article or a Page with its title, or a titled post longer than a few paragraphs (WriteFreely sends its posts as Notes
with a name), shows its cover, its excerpt and a Read button in a feed, and its whole text on demand; the post opened
in its thread shows whole. A feed of Ghost, WordPress and WriteFreely long reads stays a feed. tests/e2e ArticleTests
checks it with a WriteFreely blog; the render matrix still passes (70).

A profile shows the posts the account pins above its posts (pinned=true: for an account elsewhere, what it features,
which PrivaPub now keeps); the persona pins and unpins its own public and unlisted posts from the card's menu, and
PrivaPub tells its followers. tests/e2e/Actions/PinTests.cs pins from the card and finds the post first on the profile;
the whole e2e suite passes against the reseeded village (122, 4 skipped).

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 228708c328 Settings: change the login's password, or delete the login
A Login section in Settings changes the root's password (the current one
given) and deletes the whole login, every persona with it, after its
password and an explicit "I understand"; the client then signs out. Both
use PrivaPub's existing /clientapi/user routes.

The e2e signs up a login of its own, changes its password and deletes it,
checking each against PrivaPub's login. Signing in now waits for either
the feed or an enabled persona chooser, so a login with one persona (which
goes on by itself) and a new persona's empty feed both sign in.

The Groups page (/groups, in the menu) is where a persona makes a community
or a circle (with its invitation code and an optional password), joins one
by invitation and leaves one. For the groups it runs it edits them, shows
the invitation, lets in or declines the requests to join, and takes members
out, through PrivaPub's new /clientapi/group/members, reject and remove.
The e2e makes a circle, joins it as another persona with the code, and has
the owner take that member out.

  kept as alt text;
- a threadiverse post's downvotes next to its favourites;
- blurhash placeholders until a picture loads (wwwroot/js/blurhash.js, a
  small decoder that watches the page), and a picture's focal point;
- an event's online link, participants and capacity, and whether it is
  tentative or cancelled.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 5e8fdc43af An event card joins and leaves the event
PrivaPub lets a persona join another server's event (owner decision
2026-10-05). The card of a remote event shows the persona's participation
(pending, accepted, rejected) with Join or Leave, except for events by
invitation or taken on another site. Joining is public on the event's
server, so the first join asks the persona once, as reactions and votes do,
remembered apart from them (PublicAct).

The e2e joins the event SocialPub's Mobilizon scenario keeps, checks the
participant on Mobilizon and PrivaPub's answer, and leaves it.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 d7d836ba39 Settings, Administration and conversations; threads that fill in
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.

The composer can hold a poll instead of media (two to four choices, a
length, one choice or several), quote a post (offered on a card when the
server says the persona may quote it), and edit the persona's own post: its
words and warning come from /source, and saving keeps its media,
visibility and poll. A card's menu offers Edit and Quote, and now opens
sideways: upwards, the first card's menu was cut off by the top of the
feed. The e2e tests publish a poll, edit a post and quote it, each checked
on PrivaPub.

The Notifications tab reads grouped notifications (/api/v2/notifications):
likes and boosts of one post, or follows of one hour, are one card naming
both accounts of a pair, or the newest and how many others, with their
avatars. A notification the stream tells joins its group and waits on top.
The tab's badge counts what is unread; opening the tab moves the
notifications marker to the newest shown, which reads it on PrivaPub.

stream of the feed in view: home, a list, local, federated, a hashtag or

a deletion or an edit applies at once. Polling stays for the feeds PrivaPub
does not stream and for any feed while the socket is down, which opens again
after a pause growing to a minute. The e2e test sees a post made elsewhere
in seconds and its deletion take the card away.

The persona's filters (PrivaPub's /api/v2/filters): made, given words and

Settings), and deleted; posts filtered one by one can be taken out. Every
status says which filters it matches; each page tells its cards where they
are (home and lists, notifications, public feeds, the thread around the
opened post, profiles), and a card leaves its post out (hide), folds it
behind the filter's title with a way to show it anyway (warn), or blurs its
media (blur). The e2e test folds and then hides a post of the persona's own.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 011bafb6af End-to-end tests against the pasture; profiles, follows, search, votes, reactions
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);

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 0f68e74e38 The globe under the Sun of now or of a post, with borders and country names
Build / Build (push) Successful in 46s
Deploy / decepub.thepra.dev (push) Successful in 1m52s
The Sun lights the globe where it really is (wwwroot/js/sun.js, the Astronomical Almanac's low-precision solar
coordinates): the day map shaded by the Sun's height and the Earth–Sun distance, warm city lights on the night side,
and a twilight blend about 13° wide between them. It shows now, refreshed every 30 s, or the moment of the hovered,
focused or pinned post: a click on a card pins it, and the subsolar point travels there the shorter way round. The
panel's top corner shows that moment, the phase of the day and solar time at the post's place, and the season in its
hemisphere (or in both, for a post without a place). Its tooltip shows the subsolar point, declination, axial tilt,
distance, irradiance, day length and the next equinox or solstice.

Land borders are thin paths. Country names are in the reader's language and appear as the camera comes closer:
largest countries first, away from the globe's edge, never overlapping. They come from world-atlas 2.0.2 (Natural
Earth 1:50m), prepared by tools/globe/prepare-countries.py, and are vendored with their hashes in SOURCES.md.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 69d0a641fe The globe draws the poles as they are, and nothing while idle
The globe is a UV sphere: towards the poles its triangles narrow to
slivers, and texture coordinates interpolated across them pinched the
map into a star around each pole. Each pixel now computes its own
coordinates from its exact point on the sphere, with seam-safe mipmap
gradients; the map wraps horizontally and gets 8x anisotropic
filtering.

That showed a flaw in the day texture: NASA's mosaic has a lighter
strip at its east edge near the poles, a line from each pole once drawn
exactly. The day texture is now built from NASA's original Blue Marble
(December 2004) by tools/globe/prepare-day-texture.py, which blends
that strip into the map where both sides of the seam agree; same
4096x2048 size, provenance and hashes in SOURCES.md.

globe.gl redrew 60 times a second even when nothing moved; it now draws
only during camera flights, hover pulses, auto-rotation and the
reader's drags, so an idle globe costs no GPU time.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 620cbef219 CDN-fronted servers grouped per CDN, and servers through time
Build / Build (push) Successful in 26s
Deploy / decepub.thepra.dev (push) Successful in 1m21s
A post whose server is behind a CDN has no place of its own: the globe
groups such posts per CDN in labels on a ring above the Arctic, and
hovering one draws its arc to the CDN's group and a ring where the
server was before the CDN. The card's CDN chip names the CDN, its
domain, how PrivaPub found it (published ranges, response headers or
network), the place before the CDN and the CDN's servers week by week
(/api/privapub/v1/cdns/:domain); the author's tooltip lists the server's
changes of place and CDN week by week (/instances/:host/history). Both
are read on the first hover and kept for the session.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 827ecb770e Wire the client to PrivaPub: one sign-in, real feeds, a globe, nerd stats
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.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 e888e899d4 Add Italian and the strings every UI key needs
AllStrings.resx was empty, so all 74 UI keys rendered as their own text. It now
holds every key the app uses, with English values. That includes:
- the members of the enums shown through Localizer[value.ToString()], such as
  FollowersOnly and PlainText;
- the new toast, HttpService, ErrorViewer and Settings strings.

AllStrings.it.resx has the same keys in Italian.

ErrorMessages.resx gains MaxLength, with its Designer property, and an Italian
sibling. MessageForm's [StringLength] referenced that key, which didn't exist,
so failing that validation threw at runtime.
