Posting a dump was a single form where the important choices were the easiest
to miss. It is now three panels: link or file, why & where, playlists.
Composition:
- No more URL/File toggle. An empty panel offers both ways in at once and the
kind follows what you actually did; a file dropped anywhere in the modal is
accepted, not just on the zone.
- Categories and visibility get their own panel instead of a disclosure that
read as optional, and the primary button stays "Next" until they've been
seen. Visibility carries a real label now.
- The draft (link, title, why, categories, visibility) is mirrored to
localStorage on every change and restored on reopen, so Escape or a stray
backdrop click costs nothing. Only an attached file can't be restored, so
that is the one case that asks before closing.
- URL dumps can carry a poster-supplied title instead of being stuck with
whatever the page scraped, editable right under the preview.
- Multipart uploads go through XHR so there is a real progress bar and a
percentage on the button, rather than 50 MB of silence.
Duplicates:
- New dumps.url_canonical column (+ index, backfilled by 0013) holding a lossy
key that ignores scheme, www., trailing slashes, tracking parameters and
YouTube share shapes. GET /api/dumps/by-url reads it, and the create form
warns "already dumped by X" while it fetches the preview. Never blocking.
Fixes:
- /api/preview now reports whether the page was actually reached: a failed
fetch still yields a hostname-only stub, so a dead link and a page without
metadata used to render identically.
- The Web Share Target never worked. The manifest posts to "/", but the index
redirect dropped the query string, so every Android share landed on the feed
with nothing pre-filled.
- File dumps no longer take the extension into their title.
- The link field no longer autofocuses on touch, where it raised a keyboard
over the modal.

Re-resolving a stream is a network round-trip, and nothing checked that the
player still belonged to that item once it landed. Picking another dump —
or closing the player — while a resolve was in flight let the stale result
swap the queue back; from onError, which resolves with autoplay, it would
also start playing over whatever was chosen instead. A generation counter,
bumped by playQueue/advanceTo/stop, now drops any result that no longer owns
the player, with a separate counter owning the resolving flag so a
superseded resolve can't clear a newer one's spinner.
A track that stays dead after a re-resolve is one track, not one album: the
cooldown path now steps to the next entry and only falls back to the iframe
on the last one. A failed resolve still goes straight to the embed, since
that's an album-wide failure rather than a single bad URL. And a track that
has vanished from the release, or lost its streamable flag to Bandcamp's
free-play cap, no longer resumes track 1 at the dead track's offset — the
findIndex miss resets the offset instead of seeking past the end of another
track.
Clicking the playing row rewound it but never resumed: seekTo only moves
currentTime, so re-selecting a finished or paused track looked like a
no-op. It now resumes as well. Same idea in the compact rich-content card,
whose button advertises "Pause" while active but re-played on click — in
native mode that meant a fresh /api/bandcamp/tracks and a restart from
track 1. It pauses for streams now; embeds have no transport of their own
and keep restarting, as before.
playRichContent reports whether playback actually started, so a native-mode
Bandcamp page with no streams and no stored embedUrl — an artist root, a
/music index, a preorder — is no longer a dead click: the journal card
navigates to the dump as it used to, and the rich-content card opens the
source page.
Also: the tralbum fetch releases the response body on its two error paths.
The endpoint is unauthenticated, so random /track/<slug> URLs would leak a
connection per request while also defeating the cache.

The player now holds a queue instead of a single item, so albums play
through and single tracks share the same code path. Adds a "stream" item
kind for expiring, remotely-hosted sources: Bandcamp signs its mp3 URLs
for ~24h, so an item carries the page it came from and re-resolves itself
on error or on a stale restored session, falling back to the iframe embed
if that fails too.
Gated behind GERBEUR_BANDCAMP_PLAYER (default "embed"), injected into a
meta tag the same way as site-name/site-emoji.
Also: player header gains artwork and a subtitle, volume persists across
queue advances and reloads, and cross-origin streams get a plain seek bar
rather than a waveform that can never decode.

0011 tested for "favicon" anywhere in the path, so mirtitles.org's declared
og:image — /wp-content/uploads/2022/04/mir-logo-favicon.png — was moved into
faviconUrl and its thumbnailUrl cleared. Without a thumbnail, hasThumbnail() is
false and the journal mosaic demoted the dump from an image card to a
pull-quote. A blanket .svg match did the same to real artwork (tanibis.net's
header.svg).
0012 judges an icon by its filename rather than the whole path: named
favicon…/apple-touch-icon…/icon…, living in an icons/ directory, or ending in
.ico. That spares mir-logo-favicon.png and also catches icon_SEARCH.png, which
0011 missed. It runs in both directions, and is deliberately narrow when
reversing — a value is only promoted back to thumbnailUrl if it matched 0011's
rule but not this one, so rows written by a normal fetch aren't disturbed.
On the dev database: 4 thumbnails restored, 1 icon reclassified, real favicons
left alone, and a second pass rewrites nothing.

Thumbnails were failing in two different ways that both ended as an empty box.
Cloudflare hotlink protection answers a cross-site Referer with 403, so images
we had extracted correctly (dles.aukspot.com's og:image among them) never
rendered — every onError handler set display:none and swallowed it. The new
Thumbnail component loads with referrerPolicy="no-referrer", retries once
through /api/proxy-image for hosts that reject an empty referrer too, and only
then falls back to a placeholder.
Separately, the extraction cascade ended at the page's icon and then a guessed
/favicon.ico, so thumbnailUrl was almost never empty — just a 16x16 icon
cover-cropped into a 128x72 box. It now stops at real artwork, with faviconUrl
and accentColor (theme-color / msapplication-TileColor / mask-icon) as their own
fields. An absent thumbnailUrl finally means "no artwork", which is what makes
the placeholder possible: the site's own color mixed into the theme surface,
with its favicon centered on it, or its initial. Contrast holds for any
third-party color by construction rather than by luminance math, so nyt only
has to set --thumb-tint-strength to 0% to stay monochrome and geocities only
has to raise it. Missing accents fall back to a stable hostname-derived hue, so
rows saved before this get a tint with no backfill.
Migration 0011 reclassifies favicon-shaped thumbnailUrls on existing dumps.
The journal mosaic keeps its pull-quote and text fallbacks — the placeholder
appears there only to repair a broken image.
Also fixed: refresh silently overwrote good metadata with a failure stub, the
refresh button swallowed every error, refresh never broadcast the update,
extractBestIcon ranked SVG icons below 16x16 PNGs, and shared links with no
artwork carried no og:image at all.
