Release 2.8

I have released version 2.8 of org-social.el 🥳

I have focused on improving the user experience with real-time notifications, better post readability, and performance enhancements.

Screenshot

Main features

  • Real-time Desktop Notifications: Get instant notifications for mentions, reactions, replies, and boosts via SSE (Server-Sent Events). Optional feature, disabled by default via org-social-realtime-notifications
  • Post Preview Length Control: Long posts now show a "Read more" button (default 400 characters). Configurable with org-social-post-preview-length or set to nil to disable truncation
  • Improved User Mentions: org-social-mention-user now uses async cache system that loads all users from relay without blocking Emacs. Cache updates automatically and silently after timeline is displayed

Other improvements

  • Bug Fix: Poll voting now works correctly with vfile URLs by using local cache file
  • UI Enhancement: Thread view displays full posts without truncation for better readability
  • Performance: Timeline navigation optimized to avoid unnecessary feed reloads when switching between buffers
