Chrome Extension Quick Actions & Public Changelog

• Chrome extension quick actions — click the toolbar icon on any page to save a bookmark, subscribe to that site's feed, or send the page to Read It Later, without opening Sinkhole first.
• Public changelog — this page, linked from the marketing front page's "What's new" section.

Read It Later, Colored Highlights & Full Documentation

• Read It Later — a new inbox for saving any URL from anywhere, not just your subscribed feeds. Sinkhole downloads the full article text and its images, strips out navigation/menus, and gives you a clean offline-friendly reading view.
  • Save from the app itself (⌘K), a Chrome bookmarklet, the Raycast extension, or an iOS Share Sheet shortcut
  • Paywalled sites (e.g. Medium) can be read in full by giving Sinkhole a logged-in cookie session for that domain
• Colored, tagged, annotated highlights — highlight any passage in one of six colors, add a note, and give each color a meaning you define. Highlights now render inline in the article text itself, not just in a list below it.
• Two-level tagging — tag a whole article, or tag one specific highlight independently, both through a shared autocomplete-and-create tag picker.
• Full documentation set, browsable in-app at Sidebar → 📚 Docs (login required): architecture guides, admin SOPs, and end-user guides for every feature.
• Public marketing page — served at your domain's root with no login required.

Companion Apps — Chrome Extension & Raycast Extension

• Chrome extension — replaces Chrome's new-tab page with your Sinkhole homepage
• Raycast extension (macOS) — search bookmarks, add a bookmark, browse your reader, and save to Read It Later, all from Raycast's launcher
• Bookmarklet — save any page to a bookmarks widget with one click, no extension install required

Bookmarks & Favicon Overhaul

• Favicons are now fetched and stored on the server as local images — your browser never makes an external request to a favicon service
• Bulk "rescan missing favicons," plus a Lucide icon picker as an alternative to favicons for any bookmark
• A new three-pane desktop layout for the reader (20:20:60 split) for a more spacious reading experience

Mobile Redesign & Dark Mode

• Full mobile redesign: a bottom tab bar, swipe-right to go back, swipe up past the end of an article to jump to the next one, and an auto-closing sidebar overlay
• Dark mode, finished across the entire app — shell, sidebar, widgets, modals
• PWA installability — add Sinkhole to your phone's home screen like a native app
• Reader polish: v cycles the article list view, Space/Shift+Space scroll the open article, and go-mode (g) now finds off-screen targets too
• A round of stability fixes: hanging requests now surface as errors instead of spinning forever, image URLs resolve correctly across more feed formats, and several mobile-only layout/scroll bugs were fixed

Security Fix

• Blocked http:// and private-IP image sources in article content, stopping Chrome's mixed-content and private-network-access warnings

Admin Panel, Two-Factor Auth & Secret-URL Login

• Admin panel for managing additional accounts, viewing system-wide usage stats, and browsing an error log
• Two-factor authentication (TOTP) required to use the admin panel, even for an admin account
• Secret-URL login — the app is mounted behind an unguessable path segment instead of a discoverable public login page
• Deployment hardening: environment configuration moved fully into .env, Docker networking bound to localhost, favicons downloaded server-side instead of loaded from the browser

Initial Release — Bookmarks + Reader

• Bookmarks: pages made of columns made of widgets — Bookmarks, Notes, To-do, Clock, Weather, Search bar, and an RSS preview widget — with widgets shareable live across multiple pages
• Reader: subscribe to RSS/Atom feeds, organize them into folders, read in a three-pane view, full-content extraction, highlights, tags, and OPML import/export
• Keyboard-first navigation throughout, plus a go-mode hint overlay for clicking anything without a mouse
• Light/dark/system theme, accent colors, and font scaling
• Docker Compose deployment
