Hello fans and friends of D.Buzz!

As the old saying goes, video killed the radio star. Why did video kill that radio star, well people like to see all those colorful pixels jumping and moving around, and we do as well!

This week were happy to roll out extended video embedding support, from a broad range of additional video syndication platforms. You can now embed videos directly in D.Buzz from 3 more sources that our community has been asking for!!!

#SWEET !

Well what are these new platforms you can embed videos directly from well ...

  • We have added support for the embed video feature for Rumble.com videos.
  • We have added support for the embed video feature for Bitchute.com videos.
  • We have added support for the embed video feature for LBRY / Odysee.com videos.

We hope with these new embeds, we can now empower our content authors to share and distribute exciting media from around the web!


What else does D.Buzz have Buzzing this week?

Let's get to the rest of the release notes below.


D.Buzz Project Update
Release Notes for March 9, 2021


Development (next.D.Buzz): v3.10.0
Production (D.Buzz) : v3.8.0


A. Changes

  • Minimum character property added to Buzz embed button tool.

As we talked about last week we have now enabled the feature for minimum character counts to be specified by the sites that use the embed button.

  • Added image upload through copy & paste

You can now also copy and paste (Ctrl + C / Ctrl + V) images into a D.Buzz buzz, for ultra convenience use!

  • Added comment link removal thru @dbuzz account

In our ongoing efforts to reduce phishing attempts but still keeping freedom of speech in place, we can now remove links from D.Buzz posts, but the content will still be there.

  • Enabled page refresh when clicking tab link from the same route (Home/Trending/Latest)

Now the page will refresh with the newest content when clicking back from a different source.

  • Added GIF feature to Buzz's / Comments

You can also now reply with .GIF images that have animations or static image in the comments. Let the .GIF partys start!

  • Updated Hivejs version to latest

We've updated the hivejs also to the latest version, enabling quicker processing and better usability.


B. Fixes

  • Fixed session storage by breaking after logout

  • Fixed scroll retention

  • Fixed comment from previous Buzz appearing when viewing another Buzz

Thanks for the thanks 😊
#featuresuggestion. As a workaround to share a DBuzz to twitter, with link, I edit Tweet b4 posting by adding DBuzz link. Can't do this easily on mobile as twitter opens in same window. On desktop it's in a new window so I can switch between @chrisrice

Posted via D.Buzz

Hopefully we'll have this done within two weeks.

  • We've got a long list of tasks and the devs are knocking them out 😊

    Posted via D.Buzz

Attempting to vote on this says Insufficient Resource credits, yet keychain says 100%

Posted via D.Buzz

Yeah, this is a bug and it's weird, can you screem record it?

  • So hard to replicate it since its intermittent.

Have you experienced this on other frontends?

Posted via D.Buzz

No, not that i recall. It's a long time since i noticed it on DBuzz though. Voted on another post since and no prob

Posted via D.Buzz

Will screenshot when i notice again, if i do it quickly enough b4 message dissapears

Posted via D.Buzz

Separate #bugreport, also reported couple of days ago.
Windows/Brave/Webapp, clicking New, Hot or Home does not work. Ok on mobile i think

Posted via D.Buzz

Fixing bugs should be higher in priority rather than new features (though I also like new features). However, @chrisrice will tell me (again) that their priority is speed over accuracy. 😨🕵️‍♂️

I agree (on first point), which is why i label them differently. I post them when i see them, feature or bugreport, so i dont forget. On second point, perhaps you're labouring the point a bit too much, or perhaps you're testing Chris's sense of humour :-)

Have you tried refreshing the site a few times?

  • I am wondering if you have an older version cached.

    Posted via D.Buzz

Yessss! Thank you so much! Ctrl+V is going to be soooo helpful! You guys are amazing!

Thank you for sharing or informing. Are you thinking of creating a Tribe project or Hive Engine token with D.buzz?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We will create a token eventually for sure, but it is still a while away from being launched.

  • When it is launched, it will be a surprise 😀

Thanks. I'm waiting with my eyes open 😁

❤️❤️❤️ this one!!!!

We have added support for the embed video feature for LBRY / Odysee.com videos.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We plan on adding support for all credible videos sites.

  • BitTube.com is next.

And if you have another other platforms, including for Podcasts, that you want integrated with D.Buzz, tag @chrisrice and let him know.

Good work!!!

Hey @jacuzzi,

The title says Hive.pm, but nowhere on the content of the article explains anything about Hive.pm. 🤓
