Week of August 3

• The public Growth page charts completed daily activity with latest-day totals and 30-day, 90-day and one-year ranges.
• Creators can upload prerecorded video and schedule a processed video to premiere live with chat.
• Upcoming premieres show a countdown, and prerecorded broadcasts keep their label in the live directory, player and on-demand page.
• Signed-out visitors can browse topics, posts, feeds, tags, search, text rooms, live channels, on-demand video and topic lenses.
• The Topics page maps related audiences by shared followers, with circle size showing follower count and colour showing activity.
• Forum listings offer Compact, Standard and Expanded display levels with remembered display and sort choices.
• Messages can carry up to ten ordered images from a device, the clipboard or the sender's media library.
• Each conversation keeps its own unsent draft, including its reply target and attachments.
• Activity entries can be selected individually or in a range, then marked read or deleted together.
• Notification settings control in-app alerts and device push notifications separately, including when each registered device receives pushes.
• Patronage accepts one-time or monthly support for Kuldron and offers private-by-default recognition with an optional public mark.

Week of August 10

• A Yap is a short post with up to 300 characters, one to four images, or a quote of another Yap.
• Yap has Latest and Following timelines, and new arrivals wait behind a New Yaps control while someone is reading.
• Every Yap can be replied to, quoted, liked, reposted, reacted to, bookmarked and shared.
• Yap authors choose who may reply or quote, and can hide a reply from a conversation or detach a quote card without deleting another person's words.
• Conversations in Messages support end-to-end encrypted voice calls for two people or a group.
• Topic chat shows profile pictures and supports replies, reactions, author edits, unread-room marks and touch actions.
• Every composer opens the same media picker for a person's media library, with GIF search available wherever images can be added.
• Posts, messages, Yaps and Kuldron link previews serve HDR images when an HDR rendition exists.
• Content labels use one ordered treatment across listings, feeds, media pages, Yaps, profile pictures and banners.
• Public profiles open follower and following lists and show an account-age mark chosen by the profile owner.
• Scheduled premieres can be edited, and a failed video can be processed again from the retained upload.

Week of August 17

• Authors can delete their own message for one hour after sending it in topic chat, direct conversations and channel chat.
• A deleted message keeps a note only while replies depend on its place in the conversation.
• An encrypted conversation remains ready while one of a person's devices is offline, and that device joins when it returns.
• Chat searches the topic directory from one field and turns an unmatched search into a start-a-chat action.
• Forum and gallery images open as a set with Previous, Next, arrow-key, swipe and trackpad navigation.
• Public profiles organise Yaps, Posts, Media and Channels into tabs with filters and display choices.
• The Media tab collects images from a person's Yaps and posts into one grid.
• Accessibility offers a searchable typeface list with previews, and keeps the choice on the device where it was made.
• Phone navigation places primary destinations along the bottom with the creation control above them and search across the top.
• Logging in from a page returns to that page.

Week of August 24

• Reaction Charts rank the Yaps and forum discussions people are reacting to in daily top tens without publishing reaction totals.
• Each person can leave one reaction on a Yap, forum post or forum comment, and choosing another replaces it.
• Yap engagement opens replies, quotes, reposts, reactions, likes and daily chart history from one view.
• Chat and Messages share one conversation directory with a selector for topic rooms and direct conversations.
• A topic-chat reply can open as a side thread and carry a compact summary back into the room.
• Forum replies can be followed five levels deep with connected rails and keyboard movement.
• Animated images have Play, Pause, Collapse and Expand controls, with a per-device autoplay setting in Accessibility.
• Notification settings can turn on and test a sound for new in-app notifications on the current device.
• Yap and forum creation controls sit in their page headers, with keyboard shortcuts for feed width, theme and primary destinations.
• Returning from a Yap restores the place that was being read while the timeline checks for newer information.
