All DM creation and add-member call sites now use the home api client
and pass homeUserId/homeInstance instead of routing to the remote instance.
Also updates addMember in the API client to accept AddDmMemberRequest.
Space avatars in the mutual spaces tab now use getSpaceGradient() instead of
a flat grey background, matching the sidebar appearance. Mutual friends and
spaces from remote instances show a globe icon with the instance hostname.
Also wires up federated mutuals loading, correct API client routing for
remote user profiles, and the new mutuals utility.
Replace the unreliable client-side DM dedup loop in populateFromReady with
a creation-time guard (findExistingDmForUser) that checks all instances
before opening a new DM. Guards added to FriendsPage, NewDmModal, and
UserProfilePopout.
Also fixes: corrupted read_states from temp_ optimistic message IDs (server
migration + client-side validation), federation-aware closeDm/addDmMember
API routing, isSelf-based DM member filtering in sidebar/header, and WS
event error isolation.
Avatar fallback gradients were hashed by display name alone when no
user prop was passed, causing the same person to appear in different
colors across messages, replies, member lists, voice panels, etc.
Added userId prop to Avatar and wired it through all 17 call sites
so the gradient always hashes by user ID.
Migrate all auth pages, modals, and shared UI components from Discord
visual language to Aether Drift design tokens. Zero discord-* classes
or raw Tailwind palette colors remain in components/auth/, modals/, ui/.
- Avatar: status dots use status-online/idle/dnd/offline tokens
- Tooltip, ContextMenu, UserProfilePopout: z-index raised to z-[200]
- LoginPage, RegisterPage: warm bg-surface-base with lavender glow
- All modals: inputs use surface-input, buttons use accent-primary
- Toggles: bg-status-online (on), bg-surface-input (off)
- ServerSettings: slider tracks, pills, danger zone fully tokenized
- Purged raw Tailwind green-500 leak in StreamingLimitsPanel success msg
- 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- Archive outdated design experiments and Discord-specific assets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)
