Soundboard: the trigger travels over the WebSocket and every client in the
call plays the clip locally, instead of mixing it into the presser's
microphone or publishing a LiveKit track. No upstream bandwidth, no media
stack changes, and the clip is not degraded by voice processing.
Fan-out uses a new sendToRoomParticipants rather than sendToRoom: the latter
broadcasts a space room to the whole space, which is right for the presence
the sidebar shows and wrong for anything audible. The cooldown is enforced
server-side — a client-side one only slows down people not trying to abuse it,
and a soundboard is the easiest thing here to turn into a weapon. Playing is
open to anyone in the call; deciding what the buttons are needs MANAGE_SPACE.
Account menu: the name in the user bar had cursor-pointer and no handler, so
the interface was already promising a click that did nothing. Offers profile,
status and copy-id — not the Clips or account switching the reference design
shows, which would be dead UI here.
Call timer: startedAt comes from the server, so a late joiner sees the call's
age rather than their own arrival. Empty space rooms are destroyed already,
which is what makes the next call start from zero — no reset logic needed.
Avatar opened the profile popout whenever it received a user prop. Since user is how every avatar gets its gradient, colour and status dot, all 22 call sites became profile triggers by accident — including the picture inside the profile card itself, which re-anchored the card to that picture on every click and walked it across the screen (120px right, 36px down, until it pinned at the viewport clamp).
Avatar is now presentational. A new ProfileAvatar carries the open-the-profile behaviour at the five call sites that actually want it. The card's own picture escalates to the full profile modal instead of reopening the card.
The card also places itself off its measured size via the shared computeFloatingPosition engine, replacing six call sites that each hand-computed coordinates against a guessed 460px card height.
Closes#37
The scroll container's space-y-[2px] utility set margin-bottom:0 (via
Tailwind's space-y reverse mechanism) on every category wrapper except
the first, with higher specificity (.space-y > :not ~ :not = 0,3,0) than
each category's mb-[19px] (0,1,0). This zeroed the 19px separator for all
but the first category, so the inter-category gap rendered only below the
first category and shifted when categories were reordered.
Remove the redundant container-level space-y; the per-category mb-[19px]
is the intended separator and now applies uniformly.
- FriendItem/RequestItem: add plain wrapper div so divide-y border
lands on a non-rounded element (fixes curved separator lines)
- Add border-t to divide-y containers so first row also gets top line
- Remove uppercase from "Direct Messages" in DM sidebar
Three fixes for group DM data integrity and display:
1. processOwnershipTransferEvent: use resolveOrCreateReplicatedUser instead
of resolveLocalUser to guarantee a valid ownerId. The previous ?? null
fallback converted group DMs into 1-on-1s when resolution failed.
2. Self-healing migration: detect group DMs with UUID-format federated_id
but NULL owner_id (corrupted by the old fallback) and restore owner from
the first remaining member. Found and repaired 7 across both instances.
3. Sidebar: group DMs with 0 other members (last person standing) now show
as "Empty Group" instead of being hidden. 1-on-1 DMs with 0 others are
still correctly filtered out.
The leave-group-DM ConfirmDialog in the space/channel sidebar return
path was unreachable — group DMs only render in the DM view branch,
so setLeaveGroupDmId is never called from the space view.
The X button on group DMs now opens a ConfirmDialog instead of
soft-closing. The right-click 'Leave Group' context menu also
routes through the same confirmation. Prevents dead group DM data
from accumulating when users soft-close instead of leaving.
members.length > 2 caused group DMs to lose their identity when a
member left and only 2 remained. ownerId is the canonical marker set
at group creation and persists through the group's lifecycle.
Use parseFederatedUsername() consistently to show base username instead
of raw user@domain format. Replace inline domain text in Username
component with compact globe icon + tooltip. Add globe icons to DM
header and sidebar for federated users.
Replace the useEffect-based auto-connect pattern in AppLayout with
direct connect/disconnect calls from user gesture contexts. This is
required for iOS (AudioContext.resume + getUserMedia must happen in
a gesture handler) and aligns with tightening autoplay policies on
desktop browsers.
Architecture:
- voiceStore gains connectFn/disconnectFn refs, registered by AppLayout
from the single useLiveKit() instance.
- All voice join paths (ChannelSidebar, MobileSpacesScreen, MainContent,
voice_moved WS handler) pass connectFn to joinVoiceChannel().
- All disconnect paths (VoiceControls, voiceActions, MobileVoiceFullScreen,
MobileVoiceMiniBar, dm_call_ended/rejected WS handlers, ready handler)
call disconnectFn() directly.
- dm_call_accepted WS handler calls connectFn() to initiate the DM call
LiveKit connection.
- The 55-line auto-connect useEffect and lastAttemptedRef are removed.
- Add role="status" and aria-label to all skeleton containers
- Refactor ChannelSidebar from conditional siblings to ternary
for consistent mutual exclusivity with MemberSidebar pattern
Port the SpaceSidebar normalization pattern: convert 'before B'
to 'after A' so only one drop indicator renders at any gap.
Fixes double-line visual glitch and unreliable drops when cursor
is between two channels. Also adjust indicator offsets from
top-0/bottom-0 to -top-[1px]/-bottom-[1px] to center in the gap.
The channel sidebar voice user list was maintained by a separate
voiceUsers Map (fed by WS events + fragile hydration code) that diverged
from reality after server restarts — users shown in wrong channels,
duplicated across channels. The VoiceGrid was always correct because it
reads LiveKit participants directly.
Now VoiceChannel.tsx derives its user list from LiveKit participants for
the connected channel (single source of truth) and only falls back to
server-provided voiceUsers for channels the user is not connected to.
Removed all hydration band-aids that tried to sync the two systems:
- useLiveKit ParticipantDisconnected → removeVoiceUser
- useLiveKit ConnectionStateChanged → addVoiceUser hydration loop
- useWebSocket ready handler → dynamic import LiveKit hydration
Also includes: voice channel settings gear icon on hover, persist
per-user volume/mute prefs across sessions, default screen share
audio off on Electron (no system audio capture support).
Replace the static placeholder button with a fully functional search bar
that filters existing DM conversations instantly and searches for users
via the API with debounce. Supports keyboard navigation, federation-aware
DM creation, group DM display, and portal-based glass dropdown.
- 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
Replace fixed h-12 (48px) with py-3 + min-h-8 padding pattern to match
MainContent's 57px header height (12+32+12+1), fixing the 9px border
misalignment between sidebar and content headers.
Context menu insertion before floatingPanel shifted its fragment index,
causing React to unmount/recreate the DOM element on DM↔space transitions.
The ResizeObserver was left observing the old detached element, so
paddingBottom never adjusted and channels scrolled behind the panel.
- Reorder fragment children so floatingPanel is at index 1 in both views
- Replace useRef with callback ref so ResizeObserver reattaches on remount
- Add stopPropagation to ContextMenu to prevent sidebar menu conflicts
- Restyle sidebar create channel/category buttons (smaller, separated)
Add CreateCategory modal (replaces browser prompt) and right-click
"Delete Category" context menu on category headers with confirmation
dialog explaining channels will be uncategorized, not deleted.
Voice channels already support video/screen share, so the separate video
type was redundant. Adds migration to convert existing video channels.
Also adds border-border-soft to CreateChannel input fields for visibility.
Add drag-and-drop support for moving users between voice channels
(MOVE_MEMBERS permission required). Fix voice_moved handler using
wrong user ID for federated users — now uses the same isHome/
getMyUserIdForOrigin pattern as adjacent voice handlers.
- Add fileCleanup utility to delete uploaded files from disk on message/account deletion
- Add migration to clean orphaned DM channels, attachments, reactions, read states, and stale moderator refs
- Add FK constraints on dm_message_id in attachments and dm_reactions schema
- Make bans.bannedBy and voiceRestrictions.moderatorId nullable for deleted moderators
- Transfer group DM ownership on member leave or account deletion
- Fully clean up orphaned DM channels (zero members) including files
- Add "Leave Group" context menu for group DMs in ChannelSidebar
- Add leaveDm action to spaceStore
Broadcast user_updated events over WebSocket when profile fields change,
updating members, DM participants, friends, and cached messages in real time.
Widen useVoiceParticipantMeta to return the full user object and add a
standalone avatarColor prop to Avatar so all ~16 callsites now resolve
the user's chosen gradient color instead of falling back to hash-based colors.
Permission changes now take effect immediately without requiring
disconnect/reconnect. Modeled as "permission mute" parallel to
server mute — server recomputes SPEAK for all voice participants
on role/override changes and broadcasts state via WebSocket.
Includes amber UI indicators and mic toggle blocking.
Split monolithic UserSettings into AccountPanel, VoicePanel, ConnectionsPanel,
and InstancePanel tabs. Remove standalone InstanceSettings modal. Add reusable
Toggle component fixing size deformation, color inconsistency (green→purple),
and flex-shrink issues. Fix custom status clearing by always sending the field
to the server. Wrap Log Out button in glass bubble. Add subtle card depth with
borders.
Add isServerDeafened to mic icon slash conditions in VoiceControlBar and
ChannelSidebar. Restructure VoiceUser badge rendering to gate on effective
state (intent OR server enforcement) instead of only LiveKit participant
intent, fixing missing badges in the voice grid for server-muted users.
When a moderator lifted a server mute/deafen, the client was involuntarily
turning on the user's microphone because isMuted/isDeafened conflated user
intent with server enforcement. Now intent (isMuted/isDeafened) is never
mutated by server events. Effective state (intent || serverEnforcement) is
computed at broadcast and hardware time via centralized helpers.
- The client now dynamically resolves the user's federated identity via `getMyUserIdForOrigin` when evaluating incoming `voice_server_muted` and `voice_server_deafened` events. Previously, the client incorrectly compared the remote event's federated `userId` against the local `authStore` home `userId`, causing federated users to silently drop restriction events.
- Client-side mic/deafen toggles (`toggleMic`, `toggleDeafen`) now accurately evaluate the user's origin-specific ID against the restriction sets, preventing federated users from bypassing locks.
- UI state selectors (`VoiceControlBar`, `ChannelSidebar`) now compute `myOriginId` to correctly render the yellow server-lockdown indicators for cross-instance users.
- Replaces global `userId` tracking with `spaceId:userId` composite keys across both backend and frontend, fixing the issue where server-muting a user in one space bled into others.
- Modifies client-side `ready` event hydration to merge voice states per-origin instead of completely overwriting the store, preventing federated connections from wiping out home instance mutes.
- Excludes server voice restrictions from `zustand/persist` so stale client caches don't override the server's authority on reload.
- Fixes React component reactivity by using reactive store selections for `spaceId` instead of imperative `getState()` calls, ensuring UI lockdown indicators accurately reflect the initial websocket handshake.
When a moderator server-deafens a user, the implied mute is server-imposed
and should display amber (not red) everywhere. Updated VoiceControlBar,
ChannelSidebar, VoiceChannel, and VoiceUser to check isServerDeafened
alongside isServerMuted for amber color and cursor-not-allowed state.
Also includes smart mute/deafen toggle logic (Discord-style coupling),
server-side enforcement of mute/deafen bypass, and cleanup of server
voice state on user departure.
Add ban/unban functionality with BansPanel in space settings, voice
moderation context menu (mute/deafen/disconnect), and fix federated
space settings panels to use origin-aware API client. Show domain
indicators for federated members in MembersPanel.
Move instance-level administration out of Space Settings into its own
modal. Adds admin UI for instance name, registration toggle, and
discovery toggle. Streaming limits panel relocated from SpaceSettings.
- Add InstanceAdminSettings type and GET/PATCH /api/settings/instance
- Add registration_open DB column (nullable, env var fallback)
- Auth registration and instance info now check DB override
- New InstanceSettings modal with General and Streaming tabs
- Admin shield button in UserAreaPanel (visible to admins only)
- Remove Streaming tab from SpaceSettings
