# Important

Since the [last release back in November of 2022](https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/releases/tag/4.9.0) it is clear that Twitter [doesn't](https://www.engadget.com/twitter-new-developer-terms-ban-third-party-clients-211247096.html) [give a shit](https://twitter.com/TwitterDev/status/1621026986784337922) about 3rd party developers and apps so I will not be spending any more time and energy developing on top of Twitter's platform.

Thank you for using and supporting Better TweetDeck over the years, it was a wild ride, I wish it didn't end this way but it is what it is.

- Fixes around the custom accent color feature
- Fixes around the profile label feature

- The emoji picker, emoji completion, and emoji display now supports Twemoji 14
- The emoji completion and emoji picker search should be improved
- The "rainbow" item in the Accent Color setting should more reliably show a color picker to make it more obvious that it is a custom color setting 😅

- Fixes a regression when using a custom accent color with the light theme

This is a hotfix release on top of [4.8.1](https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/releases/tag/4.8.1) and [4.8.2](https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/releases/tag/4.8.2)

This is a hotfix release on top of [4.8.1](https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/releases/tag/4.8.1)

- Fixes the "more than X hashtags" filter causing notifications not to be displayed in columns

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/compare/4.8.1...4.8.2

## New
- Better TweetDeck will warn you before re-drafting a tweet. You can disable this behavior in the `Tweet actions` page of the settings.
- Added a new mute filter "Tweets with more than X hashtags" (https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/issues/777)
- Added settings to configure what kind of media warnings you want to consider (https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/issues/776)
- **Important change to the CW detection feature**: the feature will NOT try to detect patterns like `[food]` anymore. Instead, a new setting has been added in which you can specify what keywords should be detected in this pattern.
- Added a feature to allow the collapsing of tweets that contain a specific keyword (useful for spoilers!) (https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/issues/720)

## Improvements
- The GIF picker now features infinite scrolling and has improved performance
- Mute filters that are user-specific (like the NƒT avatar one) should properly consider retweets (https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/issues/780)
- The composer textarea has been made slightly bigger

## Fixes
- Fix a wording bug with the media warnings
- Small fixes around pronouns parsing
- Fix a bug where the "all images require a description" setting would not work properly when quote tweeting from an account that requires confirmation (https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/issues/773)

## "Mute catches" modal

Starting with this release, Better TweetDeck will keep track of users whose tweets are hidden by the different mutes you set up.
The list of users is accessible by going to the Settings -> Mute pane of TweetDeck.
Once you're there, you will be able to review, sort, and export those users in different formats, which can be useful for making sure your mutes aren't too "greedy" or to get a list of users to block/

- Allow insertion of an emoji after another emoji when using the completion with `:shortcode:`

Both of these new settings can be found in the "Tweet content" section of the settings

# Changes / Bugfixes

- Better TweetDeck now has its own custom banners instead of relying on TweetDeck's banner system.
- The content warning detection feature will show the CW/CN/TN acronym to make it clearer why a tweet is being collapsed
- Click events inside cards should be properly handled

See complete changelog with images/videos at
https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/releases/tag/4.5.0

## What's Changed

* Changed links in contributors list from API responses to GitHub profiles by @Jaid in https://github.com/eramdam/BetterTweetDeck/pull/680

* The settings modal should scale better on smaller displays

## Features
Better TweetDeck can set how can reply to a tweet when composing it

## Improvements
- BTD should be marked as compatible with Firefox ESR (78 as the time of writing)
- This release adds a failsafe to prevent BTD from accidentally breaking stuff on TweetDeck Preview.
- The "show tweet cards inside columns" feature now uses a more recent way of displaying those cards, resulting in much less memory usage and faster loading times overall. This should also fix all the issues around the scroll "jumping around" issues when those cards were loading.
- I also did a bunch of maintenance/performance stuff, nothing should change functionality-wise!

## Bugfixes

- HTML entities should properly be converted when using the "Re-draft" menu item
