📢 R25.3 is rolling out now ✨️ Threaded replies aka "Show replies in threaded view" is no longer experimental 🔇 You can finally mute threads!

screenshot of Skeetdeck showing replies in a thread, it's shown in a tree/threaded view, similar to Reddit.

this took a while because of some other concerns and having to figure out how to get the lines to actually render like that, but it ended up pretty neat.

External media embeds are supported now, starting with YouTube and SoundCloud. No additional embeds are expected at this time, mostly because these embeds don't exactly work well with the small columns that Skeetdeck has. (notably SoundCloud)

Email-based two factor authentication is now supported. This should only apply if you're signing in without an app password, which I wouldn't recommend, but it is supported.

Tired of seeing certain discussions? Skeetdeck lets you filter out posts based on your specified keywords, and you can easily turn them on or off at any given time. Now, you don't have to see the posts you didn't want to see 🙂

screenshot of Skeetdeck demonstrating the ability to add keyword filters, in this case we're filtering posts mentioning "Alf", alternative text are included in the filter as well.

By default it's configured to hide the posts behind a warning, so you are given the control to choose if you really want to see it or not, but you can always configure it so it removes the posts entirely.

missed this one - You can now view someone's handle history, given the public data nature, it'd be much wiser for this to be easily accessible rather than obscured.
