happy valentine's day! i have an update for you, as a gift :D
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
tl;dr: added support for <span class="text-backdrop">reddit gifs</span>, fixed douyin downloads, fixed vimeo quality picking, revamped entirety of codebase, and many other fixes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
here's more info:
|

|
|
|

|
|
this update is mostly about cleaning up and polishing the codebase, but it also has some new features. here's what's up:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
service-related improvements:
|
||
|
|
- you now can download gifs from reddit!
|
||
|
|
- attempting to download a video from douyin no longer throws an error (bytedance changed the api endpoint, yet again).
|
||
|
|
- fixed quality picking for vimeo downloads.
|
||
|
|
- fixed length limit check in vimeo module.
|
||
|
|
- fixed support for "user view" vk clips links.
|
||
|
|
- various twitter errors are now displayed correctly instead of falling back to the default error.
|
||
|
|
- state of all services is now tested on each commit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ui improvements:
|
||
|
|
- cobalt social links no longer disappear if you have an aggressive ad blocking extension installed.
|
||
|
|
- various localization improvements for both english and russian.
|
||
|
|
- changed some service aliases to display full list of supported downloads.
|
||
|
|
- added current branch information to version text (in settings).
|
||
|
|
- fixed typos in older changelogs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
internal improvements:
|
||
|
|
- <span class="text-backdrop">everything</span> has been sanitized, improved, and refactored. code is now much easier to read and maintain.
|
||
|
|
- rewrote and/or optimized all modules that were messy or inefficient.
|
||
|
|
- all git interaction functions now store info in cache instead of fetching it every time the function is called.
|
||
|
|
- added a test script that checks functionality of all supported services.
|
||
|
|
- updated deepsource config. checks are more accurate now.
|
||
|
|
- requests from internet explorer are now dropped entirely instead of redirecting people stuck in 90s to a proper browser download page. this was done to avoid (my) personal bias towards browsers.
|

|
i put a ton of effort into this version, and i hope you like it as much as i do.
