Version 1.6 of Org Social is released!

- Added `#+LOCATION:` global metadata field for user location (city, country).
- Added `#+BIRTHDAY:` global metadata field for user birthday in YYYY-MM-DD format.
- Added `#+LANGUAGE:` global metadata field for space-separated language codes (ISO 639-1) that the user speaks.
- Added `#+PINNED:` global metadata field to pin a post to the top of the profile using its ID (timestamp).
- Post ID can now be specified in the header (after `**`) in addition to the `:ID:` property in the properties drawer. Both formats are valid. If both are present, the header value takes priority.

There are no plans to release further versions; this can be considered the final or stable version. A process to adapt the existing software will now begin. Thank you to everyone who contributed!

I have released version 2.8 of org-social.el 🥳

I have focused on improving the user experience with real-time notifications, better post readability, and performance enhancements.

- **Real-time Desktop Notifications**: Get instant notifications for mentions, reactions, replies, and boosts via SSE (Server-Sent Events). Optional feature, disabled by default via `org-social-realtime-notifications`
- **Post Preview Length Control**: Long posts now show a "Read more" button (default 400 characters). Configurable with `org-social-post-preview-length` or set to `nil` to disable truncation
- **Improved User Mentions**: `org-social-mention-user` now uses async cache system that loads all users from relay without blocking Emacs. Cache updates automatically and silently after timeline is displayed

## Other improvements

- Bug Fix: Poll voting now works correctly with vfile URLs by using local cache file
- UI Enhancement: Thread view displays full posts without truncation for better readability
- Performance: Timeline navigation optimized to avoid unnecessary feed reloads when switching between buffers

I have released version 2.4 of org-social.el 🥳

My favorite feature of this version is that you can now schedule posts. You just need to provide a future date.

Other things it includes:

- Performance Improvements: New async user queue system for parallel user info fetching, improved feed downloading with better concurrency control, better performance for Discover and user profile loading.
- Validator Enhancements: Optional properties support, CONTACT field now accepts any valid URI scheme, better integration with other org-mode tools.
- File Structure: Optional properties in org-social file format, automatic space added after h2 headings.
- Documentation fixes and improvements.

Using #mastodon_el already gives me the vibes I got about hackers in #snow_crash, but I recently set up #org_social, and it's a whole another level of... hacker-y vibes! Highly recommended for anyone who likes tinkering with #emacs and/or #org_mode!

To my surprise, Org social is attracting more attention than I expected. I have received issues, pull requests, emails, messages on Mastodon, comments on Hacker News, etc. In less than 24 hours, the repository already has more than 150 ⭐ and 6 forks. I am also receiving proposals for collaboration and improvements, which I am already reviewing.

I need to digest all this and get organised.

Thank you all for your interest! ♥
