Currently migrating and cutting over DMV.community to my home server. 🤞

Shipped a big batch of updates to Sidewinder, my lightweight web client for GoToSocial servers.
On profiles and timelines, you can now pin posts to the top of your profile, mute noisy conversations, and browse full follower and following lists. I also added per-account boost hiding right from any profile page (with a management list in Settings), plus private profile notes that save directly to your GoToSocial server so you can remember who people are.
The composer now takes clipboard image paste and drag-and-drop uploads. Multi-photo posts get a proper carousel lightbox with arrow-key navigation, and thumbnail grids now respect image focal points so portraits do not crop people's heads off. Shared links also render compact preview cards underneath posts.
For power users, the Catch-up digest now lets you flip between "since last visit" and 1h/6h/12h/24h windows with a one-click mark all read button. Web push notifications in Settings now cover all 10 alert types, sync across devices, and include a test button. And if you live on a keyboard, you can now navigate timelines with j and k, hit Enter to open a thread, and tap r, f, b, or s to reply, like, boost, or bookmark (with a little pop animation on the buttons).
