| hey, notice anything different? well, at very least the page loaded way faster! this update includes many improvements and fixes, but also some new features. | |
| <span class="text-backdrop">tl;dr:</span> | |
| - twitter retweet links are now supported. | |
| - all vimeo videos should now be possible to download. | |
| - you now can download audio from vimeo. | |
| - it's now possible to pick between preferred vimeo download method in settings. | |
| - fixed issues related to tiktok, twitter, twitter spaces, and vimeo downloads. | |
| - overall cobalt performance should be MUCH better. | |
| service improvements: | |
| - added support for twitter retweet links. now all kinds of tweet links are supported. | |
| - fixed the issue related to periods in tiktok usernames (#96). | |
| - fixed twitter spaces downloads. | |
| - added support for audio downloads from vimeo. | |
| - added ability to choose between "progressive" and "dash" vimeo downloads. go to settings > video to pick your preference. | |
| - fixed the issue related to vimeo quality picking. | |
| - fixed the issue when vimeo module wouldn't show appropriate errors and instead would fallback to default ones. | |
| - improved audio only downloads for some edge cases. | |
| - (hopefully) better youtube reliability. | |
| - temporarily disabled douyin support due to api endpoint cut off. | |
| interface improvements: | |
| - merged clipboard and mode switcher rows into one for mobile view. | |
| - added left-handed layout toggle for those who prefer to have the clipboard button on left. | |
| - new custom-made clipboard icon. now it clearly indicates what it does. | |
| - improved english and russian localization. both are way more direct and less bloaty. | |
| - frontend page is now rendered once and is cached on disk instead of being rendered every time someone requests a page. this greatly improves page loading speeds and further reduces strain put on the server. | |
| - frontend page is now minimized just like js and css files. this should minimize traffic wasted on loading the page, along with minor loading speed improvement. | |
| - added proper checkbox icon for better clarity. | |
| - checkboxes are now stretched edge-to-edge on phone to be easier to manage for right-handed people. | |
| - removed button hover highlights on phones. | |
| - fixed button press animations for safari on ios. | |
| - fixed text selection on ios. previously you could select text or images anywhere, but now they're selectable in limited places, just like on other platforms. | |
| - frontend platform is now marked in settings: p is for pc; m is for mobile; i is for ios. this is done for possible future debugging and issue-solving. | |
| - better error messaging. | |
| internal improvements: | |
| - better rate limiting, there should be way less cases of accidental limits. | |
| - added support for m3u8 playlists. this will be useful for future additions, and is currently used by vimeo module. | |
| - added support for "chop" stream format for vimeo downloads. | |
| - fixed vk user id extraction. i assumed the - in url was a separator, but it's actually a part of id. | |
| - completely reworked the vimeo module. it's much cleaner and better performant now. | |
| - minor clean ups across the board. | |
| not really related to this update, but thank you for 50k monthly users! i really appreciate that you're still here, because that means i'm doing some things right :D |
