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
