Ecency Web/Vision 4.3.6 - Faster, Smarter, More Powerful | hive-125125

We've been heads-down shipping, and the result is one of our most substantial updates yet. Vision 4.3.6 brings deep infrastructure improvements, exciting new features, and a wave of stability fixes across the board. Here's what's new.

New Features

Image Generation

You can now generate images directly within Ecency Vision - a powerful addition for creators looking to enrich their posts without leaving the platform.

Self-Hosted Editor

The editor is now fully self-hosted, giving self-deployed Vision instances complete control over the editing experience without relying on external dependencies. We are working on setting up self-hosting wizard to simplify entire process.

Audio Embeds

3Speak Audio content can now be listened natively in posts, expanding the types of media you can share with your audience. Next we will be working with 3speak team on uploading and recording audio content.

My Favorites Widget

A new widget lets you quickly access your favorite content right from the dashboard, main feed page - less clicking, more reading.

Performance & Infrastructure

This release focused heavily on making Vision leaner and faster under the hood:

SDK overhaul - Mutation hooks, adapters, and unified SDK mutations streamline how Vision communicates with the Hive blockchain, making operations more reliable and consistent.
Optimistic updates - Posts, replies, and interactions now update instantly in the UI before blockchain confirmation, with multiple rounds of fixes to ensure correctness.
Memory optimizations - Better memory management across the app reduces resource usage, especially during long sessions.
Chat performance - Significant improvements to the chat system, including cleanup and improved account update handling.
Query pagination limits - Added max page limits to infinite queries to prevent runaway data fetching.
Token refresh logic - Auth token refresh is now more robust, reducing unexpected session interruptions.
Performance optimizations - General rendering and runtime performance improvements across the app.
