Damus v1.6 is out! Check out everything new in this release 👀
quoting

Hey guys, I’m spending some time today preparing v1.6 for the app store, it’s been a long time coming with many new features. Here’s a breakdown of everything new in this version!

Notable new features in 1.6

  • Custom built, embedded C WASM interpreter (nostrscript), which will be used for custom algos, filters and lists
  • Longform note support
  • Hashtag following
  • Configurable reactions
  • New Live user status NIP (music, general)
  • Adjustable font sizes
  • A very long list of bug fixes and performance improvements
  • Fast and persistent profile searching using nostrdb

Top priorities for 1.7

  • Lists
  • Custom algos and filters using nostrscript
  • Stories
  • Multi account
  • Tor integration
  • Better NWC integration (wallet balances, transaction history)
  • Advanced note search via nostrdb
  • Fully switch to nostrdb for all notes
  • Discord-like relays (click a relay to view all the notes on it)

So much more but maybe I will not try to be too ambitious …
