Gossip Client on Nostr: GOSSIP 0.6 has been released on github: Packages are provided for Windows, MacOS ...

GOSSIP 0.6 has been released on github: https://github.com/mikedilger/gossip/releases/tag/v0.6.0

Packages are provided for Windows, MacOS (arm64) and Debian (x86_64)

This time around, all packages have CJK language support by default. If you want a smaller binary, you'll need to compile your own.

As this is the first MacOS release, please let me know if it works for you or if you think I should package it differently. Thanks to all the people who zapped me so I could buy a mac mini and do this release.

Changes in 0.6

Images and Videos show as placeholders, right-click to open in browser or trigger other actions.
Images can now be shown inline. See the new settings "Fetch Media" and "Render all media inline automatically".
Changes to how quoted and reposted events are rendered.
Better note content parsing/formatting/rendering
Better compliance to NIP-10
NIP-27 handling of npub, nevent, note, and nprofile
Easy ability to copy an nevent from any note and paste it to mention it (with relays so it can be found by the recipient client)
Reposting a note
Support for rendering (not creating) long-form content (see setting)
Seen-on support (which relays was a note seen on)
Contact list synchronization safety improvements (still manual, gives more detail)
Lots of other little things

For those on master, you have video support that was not released in 0.6.0 because it requires fiddly dependencies and is likely to be redone differently in the future.

Enjoy!
