When creating highlights in flight mode (no remote connection), only show local relays in the relay indicator tooltip. Check connection status to determine which relays are actually reachable before setting publishedRelays field.
Remove relay.connected filter when publishing/rebroadcasting. Now always attempts to publish to all configured relays and lets the relay pool handle connection state management. This ensures highlights are broadcast to all relays, not just those that report as connected at publish time.
The highlight creation service was getting all relays from the pool without checking if they were actually connected. This caused highlights to only be published to a subset of relays (sometimes just one).
Now properly filters relays using relay.connected to ensure highlights are published to all actually connected relays when online.
- Import IAccount from applesauce-accounts (not applesauce-core)
- Remove unused account parameter from syncLocalEventsToRemote
- Fix undefined vs null type mismatch in Bookmarks component
- All linter and type checks now pass cleanly
Major UX improvement:
- Store event in EventStore FIRST (before publishing)
- Return highlight immediately (no await on relay publish)
- Publish to relays in background asynchronously
- UI now updates instantly (<50ms) instead of waiting seconds
Before:
1. Create event
2. Wait for relay publish (1-5 seconds)
3. Store in EventStore
4. Return to UI
After:
1. Create event
2. Store in EventStore
3. Return to UI immediately ⚡
4. Publish to relays in background
Benefits:
- Instant highlight appearance in UI
- No blocking on network operations
- Better perceived performance
- Especially noticeable in flight mode with slow local relays
- Event still saved even if publishing fails
- Check actual relay connectivity before rebroadcasting
- Skip rebroadcast to all relays if no remote relays connected
- Still allows rebroadcast to local relays in flight mode
- Prevents unnecessary publish attempts to unreachable relays
- Logs: '✈️ Flight mode: skipping rebroadcast to remote relays'
This prevents the app from trying to rebroadcast fetched events to
remote relays when only local relays are connected (flight mode).
- Show spinning blue icon while event is syncing to remote relays
- Hide offline indicator completely after successful sync
- Add sync state tracking with listeners for real-time updates
- Track successful vs failed syncs separately
- Only clear offline flag for successfully synced events
- Blue spinner (#3b82f6) indicates active sync
- Clean UI: no indicator after sync completes
Behavior:
1. Create highlight offline → plane icon
2. Come back online → spinner replaces plane
3. Sync completes → no indicator (clean)
4. Sync fails → plane icon returns
Major improvements:
- Store highlights in EventStore immediately when created

- Pass eventStore to highlight creation service and hooks
- Simplified offline sync: no more relay queries, just EventStore lookups

- Change 'Recently Seen' section to 'Offline' with red styling
- Use red circle icon for offline relays instead of gray
- Poll relay status every 2 seconds in settings (faster feedback)

- Now when entering flight mode:
- Local relay stays connected (green checkmark with plane icon)
- All remote relays move to red 'Offline' section within 10 seconds
- Status is highly responsive and clear
- Wrap relay publish in try-catch to handle failures gracefully
- Attempt to publish to local relay even when no relays are connected
- Always return highlight object even if publish fails completely

- Fixes TypeScript error where EventTemplate was passed before signing
- No functional changes, just type safety improvement
- Changed from percentage-based to weight-based zap splits
- All three sliders (highlighter, author, Boris) are now independent
- Weights are normalized to calculate actual percentages
- UI shows both weight value and calculated percentage
- Added migration logic for users with old percentage-based settings
- Each slider can be adjusted without affecting the others
- Prevents interdependent slider behavior that was confusing
Breaking change: Settings now use zapSplitHighlighterWeight,
zapSplitAuthorWeight, and zapSplitBorisWeight instead of
zapSplitPercentage and borisSupportPercentage
- Added borisSupportPercentage setting (default 2.1%)
- Added separate slider in ZapSettings for Boris support
- Updated zap split calculation to include three-way split:
- Highlighter gets their configured percentage
- Boris gets their support percentage (0-10%)
- Author(s) get remaining percentage, split proportionally
- Display all three percentages in the UI
- Updated addZapTags to include Boris as zap recipient
- Boris support is optional and adjustable (0-10% range)
- Updated addZapTags function to check for existing zap tags in source event
- When source has zap tags (author group), split proportionally:
- Highlighter gets their configured percentage
- Remaining percentage distributed among existing authors proportionally
- Example: 50/50 split with 2 source authors = 50% highlighter, 25% each author
- Falls back to simple two-way split if no existing zap tags
- Prevents duplicate entries if highlighter is already in author group
- Add zapSplitPercentage setting (default 50%) to UserSettings
- Implement NIP-57 Appendix G zap tags for highlight events
- Add zap tags when creating highlights of nostr-native content
- Split zaps between highlighter and article author based on setting

- Only add author zap tag if different from highlighter
- Import Helpers from 'applesauce-core' instead of 'applesauce-core/helpers'
- Import Blueprints from 'applesauce-factory' instead of 'applesauce-factory/blueprints'
- Use namespace exports as documented in applesauce tutorial
- Fixes Vercel build issue with internal module resolution
- Follows recommended import patterns from applesauce docs
- AppDataBlueprint is not available in npm package (only in local workspace)
- Revert to manual event construction using factory.create()
- This approach works on Vercel's build environment
- Added comment explaining why we can't use the blueprint
- Import blueprints as namespace: 'import * as Blueprints from applesauce-factory/blueprints'
- Use Blueprints.AppDataBlueprint with proper factory API
- Cleaner than manual event construction
- Should work with Vercel as namespace imports don't require direct named exports
- Remove AppDataBlueprint import that's not available in npm package
- Create application data events directly using factory.create()
- Manually construct event with kind 30078, d-tag identifier, and JSON content
- Fixes Vercel build by avoiding unavailable blueprint exports
- Add defaultHighlightVisibilityNostrverse/Friends/Mine to UserSettings interface
- Add toggle controls in Settings page under Startup Preferences section
