🌽 CORNY CHAT UPDATE 🚨🪄🪅

Over the past few weeks, some new enhancements and bugfixes have been applied to Corny Chat!

🌟 Image uploads restricted to nostr users

🔸 The integration of image uploads currently uses nostr.build, which recently made changes disallowing anonymous uploads
🔸 The file upload operations will only be shown to users that have it enabled in settings, and are using a nip07 extension
🔸 This affects the room chat, profile pic and banner, as well as room settings for logo, background and uploading slides

🌟 GIF search support using lemon's GifBuddy.lol

🔸 This new feature allows users to search gif images matching a provided phrase
🔸 From the room chat, start a command /gif followed by the phrase to search
🔸 One page of results will be displayed up to 30 images
🔸 Clicking an image will insert the link into the text chat and close the dialog

🌟 More improvements to Custom Emoji support

🔸 Custom emojis are now recognized and rendered for kinds 0, 1, and 1311
🔸 This means short codes can be included in room chat, and user profiles in the name and about sections
🔸 In addition, notes that include emoji codes will render them as images
🔸 Posting new notes or text chat that includes short codes will automatically include the appropriate emoji tag based on your favorited emoji packs
🔸 Avatar's and room chat have improved inline images for the username
🔸 Room Chat now includes support for images from additional social media sources

🌟 Room Chat improvements

🔸 Cashu tokens are now no longer sent as a nost live chat. They are strictly shared peer to peer within the room
🔸 Text scrolling and resizing to fit now occurs a bit faster
🔸 Images in the room text chat will now start on new line for improved legibility instead of following the username
🔸 Timestamps have been given a fixed width

🌟 Emoji Handling Improvements

🔸 Refactored building custom emoji tags to known emoji tags
🔸 Added placeholders in text for shortcodes that dont yet map to emoji images
🔸 Keep follow list cached for up to an hour
🔸 When clearing petnames, remove from local storage, and only set if a value was given
