Visual editor. A visual (WYSIWYG) editor has been implemented for posts, comments, profiles, and other areas that support formatted text. Unlike the existing text editor, the visual editor displays different fonts, links, inserted images, quotes, lists, and formulas as they will appear in reality, rather than as tags or Markdown symbols. The toolbar has been expanded to include all frequently used features, while less commonly used tools are hidden under the "More" button. The same toolbar is also available in the Markdown/HTML editor. Exclusive to the visual editor are a new button for inserting videos from YouTube and other sites, and a button to clear formatting. New keyboard shortcuts have been added.
A button has been added to allow users to select and insert emojis into their text.
On smaller screens, the toolbar is replaced by a formatting button with a dropdown menu. On Android, text selection buttons no longer obstruct this menu.
Significant effort has gone into preserving all features of the old editor (except footnotes) in the new visual editor, ensuring proper copy-paste functionality, and allowing seamless switching between the old and new editors. Switching can be done in the post editor by clicking "Advanced options" at the bottom of the editor. For comments and other text areas, this can be adjusted in the Settings (My Client > Other).
Each link in the visual editor displays a small button next to it that allows opening the link (in a new window).
New design of the editors. The post and comment editors have received a redesign. In the post editor, the number of colors and buttons was reduced. Preview, date, and name changing are now hidden in the "Publish" button menu. Additional features are no longer displayed as icons but are hidden under the "Advanced options" link. The "Compress images" checkbox has been moved to the image upload dialog. Inserting uploaded images into the post text is now done by selecting "Insert into text" from the image menu instead of clicking on the image. The image insertion dialog has been simplified.
The comment editor interface is now less obtrusive and more compact. A small formatting button replaces the toolbar. The image toolbar appears only when images are uploaded, the dedicated buttons were added for this. Delete and submit buttons have also became smaller.
Reminders in the feed. A mechanism has been added to display not only posts in the feed but also messages generated by the node itself. Initial reminders include: setting a full name in the profile, adding an avatar, adding an e-mail, writing down the name management keywords, granting access to the sheriff. These reminders are designed to be unobtrusive: they appear rarely, not all at once, stop showing after a while, and can always be disabled.
Search statistics. Once a week, the feed will display stats showing how many times your posts have been visited via Google or other search engines. Note that only public posts are indexed by search engines, and even this can be disabled in the Settings. The statistics themselves can be disabled as well.
Keyword storage. During registration, users can now skip the keyword-saving dialog. In this case, keywords are stored on the server, and the user can see and write them down later in Settings. Storing keywords on the server, even temporarily, is not recommended for maximum security - this way, the server owner won’t even have a theoretical chance of taking over your name. However, for users who have heard about Moera for the first time and are unfamiliar with its specifics, this turned out to be too complicated, so a compromise had to be made.
Other Changes
Allowed inserting videos from LinkedIn.
A new setting forces all external links to be open in a new tab. (thanks to Leonid Kogan Stavsky for the idea)
In the name selection dialog, any name can now be entered. Even if it doesn't appear in search results, it can still be used.
Separate <mr-spoiler> and <mr-spoiler-block> tags for single-line spoilers and multi-paragraph spoilers, respectively.
Added support for highlighting text with a "yellow marker" (<mark> tag).
Strikethrough symbols of Unicode in pasted text are now automatically converted to proper formatting.
Bootstrap is now compiled from SASS instead of using a prebuilt module. With unnecessary parts removed, this has reduced the overall CSS size.
Fixed an issue that caused some images to be lost when uploading many images to a post at once.
If an image exceeds the server's maximum allowed size, this is now immediately indicated in the upload dialog.
Removed ellipses from menu items, as this convention is no longer used in modern design.
Fixed issues with the real-time update of reaction and comment counts on posts in the news feed.
Fixed a bug that caused images attached to drafts to "disappear."
