nostr.blue 0.8.9 is now live on the web and zapstore!

This release brings identity verification and music discovery front and center. The biggest new feature is NIP-39 External Identity Verification. You can now display verified identity badges on your profile for GitHub, X/Twitter, Mastodon, and Telegram with links to your proof posts. Head to the profile editor to link your own accounts and let others know it's really you.

Another new addition is the V4V Music Chart. You can now browse the top-boosted tracks over the last 7 days, ranked by community support. It's a great way to discover new music that the nostr community is backing with zaps.

This release also includes a round of quality-of-life improvements and fixes. Copy Note is now available in the note context menu with native Android clipboard support. Embedded and quoted notes now render with rich content instead of plain text. The @ mention autocomplete has been fixed for mobile devices. The music player bar now opens the full-screen player on tap, and the expanded player no longer causes UI freezes on Android. We also fixed the NIP-55 signer throwing a false "mismatched package" error when signing events on Android.

We're always working on the next round of improvements. If there's anything you'd like to see changed or added, please share with us!
