Last Notes npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca Try the latest release please, it might fix your issue. npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca Voca 1.2.0 is out. npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca That's a cool idea actually. npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca That's fixed in the latest release, Thanks for the bug report! npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca Voca 1.1.1 is out. The screen and audio now stay in step more reliably, and Nostr imports are less fragile when profile lookups drag. npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca That's exactly what's happening if a URL contains an nevent. What you found is a bug. And it should also happen whenever an nevent is pasted into the text box. Thanks for the report. It should be fixed and released soon. npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca I'll investigate. npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca Give Voca an RSS or Atom address over HTTPS, or a Nostr author, and their long-form writing lands in one inbox that brings those sources together. npub17h9fn2ny0lycg7kmvxmw6gqdnv2epya9h9excnjw9wvml87nyw8sqy3hpu Voca Open a Nostr link in Voca and you get the author's signed words directly.
