github msasikanth/twine v3.8.0

4 hours ago

Features

  • Better YouTube Support: Video posts now show proper high resolution thumbnails, open directly in the YouTube app, and get a dedicated action bar in the reader.
  • Smarter Feed Links: Pasting a Reddit, Mastodon, or YouTube link when adding a feed now resolves it to the right feed automatically, including YouTube handle links.

Changes

  • Themed App Icons: App icons now match the color schemes, and can be picked right from the appearance settings.
  • Smoother Visuals: Refined gradients and scrims across the home and reader screens, animated post items in the home feed, and a cleaner background blur transition when swiping through featured posts.
  • Performance Improvements: Faster feed parsing with lower memory usage, plus smoother home screen scrolling and image loading.
  • Simpler Add Feed: Removed the feed preference toggles from the add feed screen.
  • No Shorts: YouTube feeds now come from the channel's uploads playlist, so Shorts stay out of your feed.

Fixes

  • Fixed feeds that nested media inside items showing only a single post.
  • Fixed missing images in feeds that put the image URL in the element text.
  • Fixed full article fetching failing on sites that block browser-like requests.
  • Fixed reading history not being recorded when posts were marked as read while scrolling or paging through the reader.
  • Fixed missing channel images for some YouTube feeds.
  • Added a fallback message when adding a feed fails without a reason.
