The main changes were about the creating of your own news feed. There are couple of more news resources to track now.
Bigger reconstruction was made in feed focused on social networks. There was added option to follow profiles on #Nostr protocol! Furthermore, now you can see also posts from #ZEC Pages!
Nostr protocol works in specific way where in rare case you might need to reset relays to which you want to connect to fetch desired data. Be aware it is in your hands, but default pre-set option should work in most cases.
#ZECPages load the whole board, so you can see the latest post. In the future I can add filtering and give more care to keep threads (original posts with responses to be visible in the app). Let's see if there will be demand for it.
Some of the tracked social network are customizable. That means you can add profiles/channels you want to follow! It is applicable for #Free2Z, #Nostr & #Reddit Just scroll on Resource list and tap 'Add Source'
Insert the username/channel you want to find & track and then, if search is successful, tap on Save button (Reddit data fetch might not working while connected to TOR or some VPNs, since they block it). After return to the feed screen you should be able to see the result!
These feeds are created for tracking only (cannot create a post from zCat app) and it is limited to public posts. There is no login or profile creation in the app (if there is special content for subscribers only, it might not be shown)
Another new option is to turn off the noisy ads in the Setting screen, if you want. These ads are not real ads, just hard-coded links to other apps made by myself in the past. Do not worry to turn it off, I do not lose anything on that.
Of course, there were smaller bug fixes and code cleanup. I replaced some libraries, which might introduce new bugs. If you notice anything, please, let me know. I decided to not implement any tracking tools like crashlytics (which is probably stupid), I need to know from you.
If you will have any suggestion for improvements, please, let me know, too. Apart of functionality I am also a little bit suspicious about machine translations, so, any feedback is appreciated. Enjoy the app!
