🛶 Coracle 0.5.0 has (finally) arrived!
The focus of this release is, well, focus. This is a huge release, with lots of improvements to existing features — and the removal of a few thousand lines of code.
Some quick highlights:
- "Undo" via delayed send can be enabled in Coracle's settings. This allows you to quickly correct those typos you notice just as you press "send".
- Login and onboarding have been completely re-worked to walk the delicate balance between flexibility/security and a comprehensible UX.
- Feeds are now faster, especially relay-based feeds. The controls for feeds should also be incrementally improved.
- The note create/reply inputs are now powered by nostr-editor for a smoother editing experience (thanks
@Cesar Dias!)
- The HUD (which you can access in the left sidebar on desktop) now has information about relay connections and NOTICE messages.
In other news, groups, calendars, and marketplaces are gone 😭. The good news is that feeds are better, and will continue to get improved — including render support for (almost) any nostr event. If you're very attached to NIP 72 communities or NIP 89 private groups (R.I.P 🪦), you can still access the previous version of Coracle at

Support for sending NIP 04 messages has also been removed this release (you'll still be able to read messages you've received).
Thank you to
@daniele for your design input, and
@So Tachi for doing the heavy lifting on this release!
