Rebrand. The product name is now Resenhacord everywhere a person reads it:
window title, tray, notifications, About panel, PWA manifest, page title,
recovery and instance-picker screens, and the four i18n strings that named
the app. Code identifiers (BackspaceElectronAPI, @backspace/* workspace
names, the federation protocol) are unchanged — they are not a brand, and
renaming them buys nothing but churn. AGPL notices and upstream attribution
stay as they were.
Two rename details that would each have hurt real users:
- electron-builder's productName changed but appId did not. NSIS keys the
installation on appId, so the updater replaces the Backspace install in
place instead of leaving a second app beside it.
- userData is keyed on app name, so the rename would have moved every
install to an empty profile — logged out, instance URL gone. main.ts now
walks a migration chain ("@backspace/desktop" → "Backspace" →
"Resenhacord"), each step a no-op once its source is gone, and one whose
target already holds data leaves it alone. Autostart lookups accept the
old registry entry name too.
Logo. Two speech bubbles in conversation, violet behind, rose in front with
three dots — the front one is talking. Sources are hand-written SVG in
assets/brand (square viewBox; the gap between bubbles is a mask, not paint,
so the alpha-only macOS template keeps the silhouette). PNG sources are
rendered from the icon SVG and the whole set — .icns, .ico, Linux PNGs, tray
variants, favicons, PWA, maskable — comes from the existing gen-icons
pipeline unchanged.
Pin notice. Pinning a message now posts "X pinned a message to this channel.
See all pinned messages." into the channel, the way Discord does, with two
links: the message itself (jumps to it) and the pins panel. Space messages
had no `type` column — only DM messages carried system events — so this adds
one (migration 0018, default 'user', verified against a copy of the
production database: 88 rows, all 'user'). The route inserts a type='system'
row alongside the pin and broadcasts it as message_created, so the client
renders it with the SystemMessage renderer it already has. Unpinning posts
nothing; it is housekeeping, not news. System notices are excluded from the
notification toast and the message sound — they are not from anyone.
The pins panel and jump target are local state in MainContent; a notice deep
in the timeline reaches them through two small uiStore requests (a counter
and an id), neither persisted.
Verified: web build, 506 web tests (2 new), server typecheck, 804 server
tests, desktop typecheck.

Multi-pass mobile chat polish landed across this session.
- MessageInput is now a floating glass-bubble (`position: absolute`) on both desktop and mobile — last messages scroll *behind* the translucent bubble. MobileChatScreen wraps MessageList + MessageInput in a `relative` parent so absolute positioning resolves. Removed the prior in-flow mobile branch that clipped message-list bottom against an invisible barrier.
- iOS PWA keyboard handling: new `useVisualViewportInset` hook subscribes to `visualViewport.resize/scroll` AND polls `vv.height` for ~600ms after focusin (iOS PWA standalone often fails to dispatch resize for keyboard transitions). MobileShell sizes its container to `vv.height` when keyboard is open — `bottom: 0` on the composer naturally lands flush with the keyboard top, regardless of how reliably resize events fire. Composer uses 6px gap above home indicator (keyboard closed) and 0px gap above keyboard (keyboard open). Added `interactive-widget=resizes-content` viewport meta as the cleaner native equivalent for Chrome/Android.
- MessageList bottom padding is dynamic via `--composer-clearance` CSS variable. MessageInput writes `composerHeight + bottomOffset + 12px` to its parent via ResizeObserver — re-fires on textarea autosize, reply banner, attachment tile growth, parent resize. Last message always has 12px breathing room above the bubble regardless of composer state.
- AttachmentRenderer generic file chip: `max-w-full sm:max-w-[400px]` on outer + `min-w-0` + `flex-shrink-0` on icon + `flex-1` on text + `flex-wrap` on badge row. Long filenames now ellipsize cleanly on narrow viewports instead of pushing the chip off-screen.
- New `useDragToClose` hook: shared bottom-sheet drag-down-to-dismiss gesture. Spread on handle/header only (body scrolling unaffected). 6px deadzone, 100px or 0.5px/ms velocity threshold, 200ms `cubic-bezier(0.22, 1, 0.36, 1)` close-out animation, rAF-staged transform for a stable from-value. `hasInteracted` latch prevents the open keyframe from re-firing mid-close (the bounce-up-then-vanish bug). Wired into InputPopover (emoji/GIF), MobileVoiceJoinSheet, MobileFolderSheet.
Specs: docs/systems/mobile-ui.md (Floating Composer + Drag-to-Close sections), docs/systems/message-list.md (--composer-clearance), docs/systems/design-system.md (glass-bubble row references).
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)
