Strip the desktop package description to "Backspace" so Windows Task
Manager shows the bare product name instead of the long tagline.
Unify the web meta description and PWA manifest description on a single
positioning line that names Discord and TeamSpeak as the comparison
targets — improves link-preview copy and SEO surface.
- Resize avatars/icons to 256px and banners to 1280px (client crop + server safety net)
- Add server-side resizeProfileImage() for federation/API uploads without crop modal
- Fix unconstrained crop on RegisterPage and CreateSpace (was missing maxOutputDimension)
- PWA: switch to autoUpdate with skipWaiting/clientsClaim for seamless deploys
- Storage janitor: exclude profile images from unlinked cleanup, delete stale thumbnails
- Add deleteAttachmentByFilename() to clean orphaned attachment records for profile images
- Migration: one-time cleanup of stale profile image attachment records
- GeneralPanel: wrap in <form> to prevent implicit submission
- Rewrite ChannelSettingsModal with full tri-state permission override UI
for roles and members (allow/neutral/deny per permission bit)
- Switch font from Inter to self-hosted DM Sans (woff2 variable fonts)
- Add client-side VIEW_CHANNEL filtering in ChannelSidebar for private channels
- Broadcast isPrivate flag on channel override changes
- Fix voice permission bit migration: gate behind persistent flag to prevent
repeated re-runs that stripped STREAM from @everyone roles
- Add speakingUserIds set to voice store for efficient user-level lookups
- Clear current channel view when a channel is deleted
- Move .glass-strip to @layer utilities for proper CSS specificity
- Simplify avatar initials font size to proportional formula
Phase 5: Remove all 54 legacy Discord token definitions from tailwind.config.js,
migrate body classes in index.html to Aether Drift tokens, update ARCHITECTURE_AUDIT.md.
Phase 6: Replace flat purple fallback avatars with deterministic colorful gradients
(mint, sky, lavender, coral, rose, teal, amber) based on user/server ID hash.
Replace Discord logo SVG with Backspace "B" in server strip. Add per-server gradient
icons with hover glow. Update profile popout banner and incoming call modal to match.
- Add Backspace-design-prototype.html: finalized "Aether Drift" design
language with warm matte surfaces and subtle frosted glass accents
- Update CLAUDE.md with DESIGN SYSTEM section and remove Discord clone references
- Rename all Opencord references to Backspace across the full codebase
- Archive outdated design experiments and Discord-specific assets
- Add science-backed accessibility fallback (prefers-reduced-transparency)
