The first formally versioned release. Infomundi is a mature, production platform, so version 1.0.0 marks the point where we start tracking changes openly rather than a brand-new launch.
Added
- Coverage Bias Bar and Blindspot on story clusters. See the left, center, and right spread of the outlets covering a story, and which side is under-covering it, with a dedicated Blindspot feed and dashboard.
- "Top people" sidebar widget highlighting the people most talked about in the news right now.
- Group messages that stay end-to-end encrypted, just like direct messages: only you and the people in the conversation can read them.
- Messaging upgrades: load older messages, live unread counts, automatic catch-up after reconnecting, message deletion, and encrypted file attachments.
- Notification upgrades: grouped notifications, an email digest, XP toasts, a friend-request inbox, and a "Load older" control.
- Install Infomundi as an app on your phone or desktop, plus a new onboarding flow and accessibility improvements.
- Related coverage on the story page, and a feed that folds syndicated and duplicate same-event stories into a single card.
- Breaking-news page that gives breaking alerts a place to land.
- Post composer on the community page for sharing posts inline.
- Visiting /news now takes you straight to your country's news. The feed shows all stories by default, with an image-only view as an option.
- Cluster list upgrades: sort by most outlets, a cleaner editorial layout that defaults to Trending, country hover cards, search across archived stories, and AI-written summaries on cluster cards.
- Solve one captcha and you're set. A single check now unlocks every AI feature for the rest of your session.
- Choose a round or square avatar, shown everywhere, plus shared publisher and user menus with AI-written publisher descriptions.
- Better cover images for clusters and stories, gathered automatically as needed.
- Newsletter upgrades: images and blurbs, a "send me a sample" option, and full translation support.
- Enterprise features for business customers: single sign-on (SAML), automated user provisioning (SCIM), audit-log export, data-processing-agreement controls, per-key IP allowlists, and bring-your-own encryption keys.
- Developer dashboard improvements: AI-assisted features, an onboarding profile, a live API explorer, and richer tracker insights (drill-downs, volume alerts, and per-endpoint usage).
- New security policy, license, and contribution guidelines, plus this changelog.
Changed
- Near-instant page loads. Pages paint right away with loading placeholders while content streams in, and slower work runs in the background.
- AI features no longer freeze the page. Summaries, narration, sentiment, country briefings, and comparisons now run in the background and arrive when ready.
- Snappier, more reliable real-time updates across chat, comments, and notifications.
- Faster, fresher news behind the scenes.
- Full front-end polish pass: clearer feedback states, better forms, and tidier wording. Story and cluster titles can now span up to five lines.
- Light and dark theme switch instantly, with no page reload, and your browser language is applied automatically on your first visit.
Fixed
- Saving your profile location now works reliably, and more countries show the correct name on clusters.
- Search keeps working even when the search service is briefly unavailable, falling back to recent stories instead of showing an error.
- Many dark-mode readability fixes and layout fixes, including no more sideways scrolling and a footer that no longer overlaps the sidebar.
- Hid empty "0 views" counts, kept filler weather snippets out of clusters, and corrected a few cover-image mismatches.
Removed
- Retired the community groups and channels feature.
- Dropped the publishers stat from the homepage hero.
Security
- Strengthened protection against automated scraping and abuse.
- Hardened account security across login, password recovery, email changes, and two-factor setup.
- Hardened how we handle external links and content to prevent them being abused.
- Fixed rate limiting that could occasionally block normal browsing.
- Tightened enterprise single sign-on so it only accepts approved email domains.
