chore: bump version to 0.10.13

- Web bookmarks (kind:39701) are replaceable events and should be deduplicated by d-tag
- Update dedupeNip51Events to include kind:39701 in d-tag deduplication logic
- Use coordinate format (kind:pubkey:d-tag) for web bookmark IDs instead of event IDs
- Ensures same URL bookmarked multiple times only appears once
- Keeps newest version when duplicates exist

+description: fetching data from relays
+alwaysApply: false
+---
+
+We fetch data from relays using controllers:
+- Start controllers immediatly; don’t await.
+- Stream via onEvent; dedupe replaceables; emit immediately.
+- Parallel local/remote queries; complete on EOSE.
+- Finalize and persist since after completion.
+- Guard with generations to cancel stale runs.
+- UI flips off loading on first streamed result.
+
+We always include and prefer local relays for reads; optionally rebroadcast fetched content to local relays (depending on setting); and tolerate local‑only mode for writes (queueing for later).
+
+Since we are streaming results, we should NEVER use timeouts for fetching data. We should always rely on EOSE.
+
+In short: Local-first hydration, background network fetch, reactive updates, and replaceable lookups provide instant UI with eventual consistency. Use local relays as local data store for everything we fetch from remote relays.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
-## [0.10.1] - 2025-10-20
+## [0.10.12] - 2025-01-27
+
+### Added
+
+- Person hiking icon (fa-person-hiking) for explore navigation
+
+### Changed
+
+- Explore icon changed from newspaper to person hiking for better semantic meaning
+- Settings button moved before explore button in sidebar navigation
+- Profile avatar button now uses 44px touch target on mobile (matches other icon buttons)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Web bookmarks (kind:39701) now properly deduplicate by d-tag
+- Same URL bookmarked multiple times now only appears once
+- Web bookmark IDs use coordinate format (kind:pubkey:d-tag) for consistent deduplication
+- Profile avatar button sizing on mobile now matches other IconButton components
+- Removed all console.log statements from bookmarkController and bookmarkProcessing
+
+## [0.10.11] - 2025-01-27
+
+### Added
+
+- Clock icon for chronological bookmark view
+- Clickable highlight count to open highlights sidebar
+- Dynamic bookmark filter titles based on selected filter
+- Profile picture moved to first position (left-aligned) with consistent sizing
+
+### Changed
+
+- Default bookmark view changed to flat chronological list (newest first)
+- Bookmark URL changed from `/me/reading-list` to `/me/bookmarks`
+- Router updated to handle `/me/reading-list` → `/me/bookmarks` redirect
+- Me.tsx bookmarks tab now uses dynamic filter titles and chronological sorting
+- Me.tsx updated to use faClock icon instead of faBars
+- Removed bookmark count from section headings for cleaner display
+- Hide close/collapse sidebar buttons on mobile for better UX
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Bookmark sorting now uses proper display time (created_at || listUpdatedAt) with nulls last
+- Robust sorting of merged bookmarks with fallback timestamps
+- Corrected bookmark timestamp to use bookmark list creation time, not content creation time
+- Preserved content created_at while adding listUpdatedAt for proper sorting
+- Removed synthetic added_at field, now uses created_at from bookmark list event
+- Consistent chronological sorting with useMemo optimization
+- Removed unused faTimes import
+- Bookmark timestamps now show sane dates using created_at fallback to listUpdatedAt
+- Guarded formatters to prevent timestamp display errors
+
+### Refactored
+
+- Removed excessive debug logging for cleaner console output
+- Bookmark timestamp handling never defaults to "now", allows nulls and sorts nulls last
+- Renders empty when timestamp is missing instead of showing invalid dates
+
+## [0.10.10] - 2025-10-22
+
+### Changed
+
+- Version bump for consistency (no user-facing changes)
+
+## [0.10.9] - 2025-10-21
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Event fetching reliability with exponential backoff in eventManager
+  - Improved retry logic with incremental backoff delays
+  - Better handling of concurrent event requests
+  - More robust event retrieval from relay pool
+- Bookmark timestamp handling
+  - Use per-item `added_at`/`created_at` timestamps when available
+  - Improves accuracy of bookmark date tracking
+
+### Changed
+
+- Removed all debug console logs
+  - Cleaner console output in development and production
+  - Improved performance by eliminating debugging statements

+  - Display `kind:1` notes and other events with article-like presentation
+  - Publication date displayed in top-right corner like articles
+  - Author attribution with "Note by @author" titles
+  - Direct event loading with intelligent caching from eventStore
+- Centralized event fetching via new `eventManager` singleton
+  - Request deduplication for concurrent fetches
+  - Automatic retry logic when relay pool becomes available
+  - Non-blocking background fetching with 12-second timeout
+  - Seamless integration with eventStore for instant cached event display
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Bookmark hydration efficiency
+  - Only request content for bookmarks missing data (not all bookmarks)
+  - Use eventStore fallback for instant display of cached profiles
+  - Prevents over-fetching and improves initial load performance
+- Search button behavior for notes
+  - Opens `kind:1` notes directly via `/e/{eventId}` instead of search portal
+  - Articles continue to use search portal with proper naddr encoding
+  - Removes unwanted `nostr-event:` prefix from URLs
+- Author profile resolution
+  - Fetch author profiles from eventStore cache first before relay requests
+  - Instant title updates if profile already loaded
+  - Graceful fallback to short pubkey display if profile unavailable
+
+## [0.10.7] - 2025-10-21

+  - Background fetching of highlights and writings uses consistent patterns
+
+### Changed
+
+- Simplified profile background fetching logic for better maintainability

+  - Resolved infinite update loop caused by circular dependency in `useCallback` hooks
+  - Tab navigation now properly updates UI when URL changes
+  - Removed `loadedTabs` from dependency arrays to prevent re-render cycles
+- Explore page data loading patterns
+  - Implemented subscribe-first, non-blocking loading model
+  - Removed all timeouts in favor of immediate subscription and progressive hydration
+  - Contacts, writings, and highlights now stream results as they arrive
+  - Nostrverse content loads in background without blocking UI

+  - Removed unused variables (`queryTime`, `startTime`, `allEvents`)
