You Cannot Found A Thicket, And Yet Here We Are

Burrow 🐞 0.14 + 0.15: wander, keep, switch, write

This is both a feature update and to bring it to parity with the OG blyg-studio.

A big update across two releases. Burrow now opens where you live, in Reading. It lets you wander further, keep what you find, and write without losing your place.

Follow the thicket. Click any quote, even one nested three deep, a stub's "responds to" line, or a link to someone's blyg post. It opens right there in the reader. Posts from blygs you don't follow open as a peek, with a polite "subscribe?". A breadcrumb shows how you got there, and ⌘[ walks you back. β‡§βŒ˜H keeps a private history of every rabbit hole.

Hoppers. Collect posts into named hoppers, yours and anyone else's. Press h on any post, or click its Hopper β€Ί chip, then pick a hopper or make a new one on the spot. Your hoppers sit under Hoppers in the reader. Right-click one to rename it, describe it, or make it public, which gives it a page on your blyg. Adds made offline go out when you're back online.

Write while you read. A post box now sits at the foot of the reading screen. Press c, type the thought, then ⌘⏎. It's posted, and you never lost your place.

Several blygs, one click apart. Click the name in the title bar, or press βŒƒβŒ˜0, to hop between blygs. Each one keeps its own posts, drafts and reading.

Also new:

  • Withdrawn posts live under Background and stop cluttering your feed.
  • Revised posts lead with what changed: "V3: tightened the ending".
  • In a reply, quote a passage by selecting it right in the preview.
  • A sync conflict you closed by accident can always be reopened. Thanks, patwater (#52).

Under the hood, it's in step with Blygger Studio 0.49. It also refuses, politely, to sync with a future studio API it doesn't speak yet, so your reading list is never misread.
