It seems like users told Vitor Pamplona (npub1gcx…nj5z) they would like to have the option of sharing their location on Amethyst 🤨Are we so used to giving out all of our data for free we can’t stop, even when we don’t have to? 🤷🏽‍♀️ What are your thoughts on data sharing and privacy across #nostr clients?

quoting note1x4l…u9ns

So, people want an option to share location on Amethyst. How should we do this? I am concerned users might not know the dangers of it. Maybe we do zip code precision as default?

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!
