- Post action row (chat / ❤ / eye / share) had only a small paddingRight
and no left padding. First icon sat flush under the avatar and share
iron against the card edge. Replaced with paddingHorizontal: 12 so
both sides get equal breathing room; each of the four cells still
flex:1 so the icons distribute evenly.
- FAB kept appearing at the LEFT edge instead of the right on user's
device despite position:absolute + right:12. Pressable's dynamic-
function style can drop absolute-positioning fields between renders
on some RN versions. Wrapping the Pressable in a plain absolute-
positioned View fixes this: positioning lives on the View (never
re-evaluated mid-render), the Pressable inside only declares size
and visuals. pointerEvents="box-none" on the wrapper keeps taps
outside the button passing through to the feed list below.

- PostSeparator was a bare 1px line flush against both neighbouring
cards, so the seam looked like card contact instead of a real
break. Wrapped it in a 12px vertical padding — now there's 12px
blank above the line, 1px line, 12px blank below. Trimmed the
card's own paddingVertical back down since the separator now owns
the inter-post breathing room.
- FAB was lifted to bottom: max(insets.bottom, 8) + 70 in the previous
commit which put it far too high (a leftover from the original
experiment with the absoluteFill wrapper). User wants 12px above
the NavBar and 12px from the right edge. The Feed screen's
container ends at the NavBar top (enforced by (app)/_layout.tsx's
outer <View flex:1> + NavBar sibling), so a simple `right: 12,
bottom: 12` on position:absolute lands the button exactly there on
every device. Removed the now-unnecessary absoluteFill wrapper too.

- Post divider was on each PostCard's outer Pressable as borderBottom
(#222), which was barely visible on OLED black and disappeared
entirely in pressed state (the pressed bg ate the line). Moved the
seam to a dedicated PostSeparator component (1px, #2a2a2a) wired as
FlatList's ItemSeparatorComponent on both /feed (timeline / for-you
/ trending) and /feed/tag/[tag]. Also bumped inter-card vertical
padding (14-16 top / 16-20 bottom) so cards have real breathing room
even before the divider.
- FAB position was flaky: with <Stack> at the (app) level the overlay
could end up positioned against the Stack's card view instead of the
tab container, which made the button drift around and stick against
unexpected edges. Wrapped it in an absoluteFill container with
pointerEvents="box-none" — the wrapper owns positioning against the
tab screen, the button inside just declares right: 14 / bottom: N.
Bumped bottom offset to `max(insets.bottom, 8) + 70` so the FAB
always clears the 5-icon NavBar with ~14px visual gap on every
device. Shadow switched from blue-cast to standard dark for better
depth perception on dark backgrounds.

- PostCard rows got cramped paddings and a near-invisible divider.
Increased paddingTop 12→16, paddingBottom 12→18, paddingHorizontal
14→16; divider colour #141414→#222222 so the seam between posts is
legible on OLED blacks.
- Action row (chat / ❤ / view / share) used a fixed gap:32 + spacer.
Reworked to four flex:1 cells with justifyContent: space-between,
so the first three icons distribute evenly across the row and share
pins to the right edge. Matches Twitter's layout where each action
occupies a quarter of the row regardless of label width.
- Feed tab strip (Подписки / Для вас / В тренде) used flex:1 +
gap:10 which bunched the three labels together visually. Switched
to justifyContent: space-between + paddingHorizontal:20 so each
tab hugs its label and the three labels spread to the edges with
full horizontal breathing room.
- Post detail screen (/feed/[id]) and hashtag feed (/feed/tag/[tag])
were missing the safe-area top inset — their headers butted right
against the status bar / notch. Added useSafeAreaInsets().top as
paddingTop on the outer View, matching the rest of the app.

Three related UX fixes on the client.
1. Participants count on profile
DMs always have exactly two participants (you and the contact) so a
"Участников: 1" row was confusing — either it's obviously the other
person or it's wrong depending on how you count. Removed for direct
conversations; the row still appears for group chats (and shows an
em-dash until v2.1.0 gives groups a real member list).
2. Dev feed seed now activates on network / 404 errors
The seed was only surfaced when the real API returned an EMPTY
array. If the node was down (Network request failed) or the endpoint
replied 404, the catch block quietly set posts to [] and the list
stayed blank — defeating the point of the seed. Now both the empty-
response path AND the network-error path fall back to getDevSeedFeed(),
so scrolling / like-toggling works even without a running node.
Also made the __DEV__ lookup more defensive: use `globalThis.__DEV__`
at runtime instead of the typed global. Some bundler configurations
have the TS type but not the runtime binding, or vice-versa — the
runtime lookup always agrees with Metro.
3. Back from profile → previous screen instead of tab root
Root cause: AnimatedSlot rendered <Slot>, which is stack-less. When
/chats/xyz pushed /profile/abc (cross-group), the chats group
unmounted. Hitting Back then re-entered chats at its root (/chats
list) rather than /chats/xyz.
Replaced <Slot> with <Stack> in AnimatedSlot. Tab switching still
stays flat because NavBar uses router.replace (which maps to
navigation.replace on the Stack — no history accumulation).
Cross-group pushes (post author tap from feed, avatar tap from chat
header, compose modal) now live in the outer Stack's history, so
Back pops correctly to the caller.
The nested Stacks (chats/_layout.tsx, feed/_layout.tsx,
profile/_layout.tsx) still handle intra-group navigation as before.
The PanResponder-based swipe-right-to-back was removed since the
native Stack now provides iOS edge-swipe natively; Android uses the
system back button.
animation: 'none' keeps the visual swap instant — matches the prior
Slot look so nothing flashes slide-animations that weren't there
before. Sub-group layouts can opt into slide_from_right themselves
(profile/_layout.tsx and feed/_layout.tsx already do).

expo-router error: "A navigator cannot contain multiple 'Screen'
components with the same name (found duplicate screen named 'feed')".
Cause: having both app/(app)/feed.tsx (a file-route) and
app/(app)/feed/ (a folder with _layout.tsx) at the same level makes
expo-router try to register two routes called "feed".
Fix: the folder's _layout.tsx wraps the tab + its sub-routes in a
single Stack, so the tab screen becomes feed/index.tsx — the initial
screen of that Stack. Back navigation from /feed/[id] and
/feed/tag/[tag] now correctly pops to the Feed tab root.
No other route references changed (paths like /(app)/feed,
/(app)/feed/<id>, /(app)/feed/tag/<tag> still resolve identically).

Profile screen
- Missing safe-area top inset on the header — fixed by wrapping the
outer View in paddingTop: insets.top (matches the rest of the tab
screens).
- "Чат" button icon + text sat on two lines because the button used
column layout by default. Rewritten as a full-width CTA pill with
flexDirection: row and alignItems: center → chat-bubble icon and
label sit on one line.
- Dedicated "Копировать адрес" button removed. The address row in
the info card is now the tap target: pressing it copies to clipboard
and flips the row to "Скопировано" with a green check for 1.8s.
- Posts tab removed entirely. User's right — a "chat profile" has no
posts concept, just participant count + date + encryption. The
profile screen is now a single-view info card (address, encryption
status, added date, participants). Posts are discoverable via the
Feed tab; a dedicated /feed/author/{pub} screen is on the roadmap
for browsing a specific user's timeline.
Back-stack navigation
- app/(app)/profile/_layout.tsx + app/(app)/feed/_layout.tsx added,
each with a native <Stack>. The outer AnimatedSlot is stack-less
(intentional — it animates tab switches), so without these nested
stacks `router.back()` from a profile screen had no history to pop
and fell through to root. Now tapping an author in the feed → back
returns to feed; opening a profile from chat header → back returns
to the chat.
Dev feed seed
- lib/devSeedFeed.ts: 12 synthetic posts (text-only, mix of hashtags,
one with has_attachment, varying likes/views, timestamps from "1m
ago" to "36h ago"). Exposed via getDevSeedFeed() — stripped from
production via __DEV__ gate.
- Feed screen falls back to the dev seed only when the real API
returned zero posts. Gives something to scroll / tap / like-toggle
before the backend has real content; real data takes over as soon
as it arrives.
Note: tapping a mock post into detail will 404 against the real node
(the post_ids don't exist on-chain). Intentional — the seed is for
scroll + interaction feel, not deep linking.

- Composer footer (attach / counter / fee bar) now rides with the
keyboard on both platforms: KeyboardAvoidingView behavior is
"padding" on iOS and "height" on Android. Previously behavior was
undefined on Android, and the global softwareKeyboardLayoutMode:"pan"
setting lifted the whole screen — leaving the footer hidden below
the keyboard.
- Feed tab strip (Подписки / Для вас / В тренде) had zero horizontal
breathing room — three equal-width Pressables flush to the edges.
Added 12px outer paddingHorizontal + 10px gap + slightly bigger
paddingVertical. The active indicator is now 32px wide (was 48) so
it sits under the label instead of underlining two words.
- Floating compose FAB pinned to the right edge with a 14px inset
(was 18). Vertical offset tightened from +70 to +62 above the
safe-area inset — closer to the NavBar top edge while still clear
of the icons.

Ships the client side of the v2.0.0 feed feature. Folds client-app/
into the monorepo (was previously .gitignored as "tracked separately"
but no separate repo ever existed — for v2.0.0 the client is
first-class).
Feed screens
app/(app)/feed.tsx — Feed tab
- Three-way tab strip: Подписки / Для вас / В тренде backed by
/feed/timeline, /feed/foryou, /feed/trending respectively
- Default landing tab is "Для вас" — surfaces discovery without
requiring the user to follow anyone first
- FlatList with pull-to-refresh + viewability-driven view counter
bump (posts visible ≥ 60% for ≥ 1s trigger POST /feed/post/…/view)
- Floating blue compose button → /compose
- Per-post liked_by_me fetched in batches of 6 after list load
app/(app)/compose.tsx — post composer modal
- Fullscreen, Twitter-like header (✕ left, Опубликовать right)
- Auto-focused multiline TextInput, 4000 char cap
- Hashtag preview chips that auto-update as you type
- expo-image-picker + expo-image-manipulator pipeline: resize to
1080px max-dim, JPEG Q=50 (client-side first-pass compression
before the mandatory server-side scrub)
- Live fee estimate + balance guard with a confirmation modal
("Опубликовать пост? Цена: 0.00X T · Размер: N KB")
- Exif: false passed to ImagePicker as an extra privacy layer
app/(app)/feed/[id].tsx — post detail
- Full PostCard rendering + detailed info panel (views, likes,
size, fee, hosting relay, hashtags as tappable chips)
- Triggers bumpView on mount
- 410 (on-chain soft-delete) routes back to the feed
app/(app)/feed/tag/[tag].tsx — hashtag feed
app/(app)/profile/[address].tsx — rebuilt
- Twitter-ish profile: avatar, name, address short-form, post count
- Posts | Инфо tab strip
- Follow / Unfollow button for non-self profiles (optimistic UI)
- Edit button on self profile → settings
- Secondary actions (chat, copy address) when viewing a known contact
Supporting library
lib/feed.ts — HTTP wrappers + tx builders for every /feed/* endpoint:
- publishPost (POST /feed/publish, signed)
- publishAndCommit (publish → on-chain CREATE_POST)
- fetchPost / fetchStats / bumpView
- fetchAuthorPosts / fetchTimeline / fetchForYou / fetchTrending /
fetchHashtag
- buildCreatePostTx / buildDeletePostTx
- buildFollowTx / buildUnfollowTx
- buildLikePostTx / buildUnlikePostTx
- likePost / unlikePost / followUser / unfollowUser / deletePost
(high-level helpers that bundle build + submitTx)
- formatFee, formatRelativeTime, formatCount — Twitter-like display
helpers
components/feed/PostCard.tsx — core card component
- Memoised for performance (N-row re-render on every like elsewhere
would cost a lot otherwise)
- Optimistic like toggle with heart-bounce spring animation
- Hashtag highlighting in body text (tappable → hashtag feed)
- Long-press context menu (Delete, owner-only)
- Views / likes / share-link / reply icons in footer row
Navigation cleanup
- NavBar: removed the SOON pill on the Feed tab (it's shipped now)
- (app)/_layout: hide NavBar on /compose and /feed/* sub-routes
- AnimatedSlot: treat /feed/<id>, /feed/tag/<t>, /compose as
sub-routes so back-swipe-right closes them
Channel removal (client side)
- lib/types.ts: ContactKind stripped to 'direct' | 'group'; legacy
'channel' flag removed. `kind` field kept for backward compat with
existing AsyncStorage records.
- lib/devSeed.ts: dropped the 5 channel seed contacts.
- components/ChatTile.tsx: removed channel kindIcon branch.
Dependencies
- expo-image-manipulator added for client-side image compression.
- expo-file-system/legacy used for readAsStringAsync (SDK 54 moved
that API to the legacy sub-path; the new streaming API isn't yet
stable).
Type check
- npx tsc --noEmit — clean, 0 errors.
Next (not in this commit)
- Direct attachment-bytes endpoint on the server so post-detail can
actually render the image (currently shows placeholder with URL)
- Cross-relay body fetch via /api/relays + hosting_relay pubkey
- Mentions (@username) with notifications
- Full-text search
