Skyscraper 1.6

Now Available on macOS!

Skyscraper now supports macOS natively! Enjoy a fresh, multi-column, native Mac app.

New app icon from the Iconfactory! Available in 3 flavors, standard (changes color based on your device being in light/dark mode), or always view it in the light or dark styles.

Custom Themes: paint Skyscraper and make it yours, with a live preview as you edit.

Community Themes: browse and install themes other Skyscraper users have made, or submit your own for review.
Publications: read the standard.site publications you subscribe to right in the app, including articles the publisher never cross-posted to Bluesky.
Share Post as Image: turn any post into an image, complete with its photos, link card, quoted post and the rest of the author's thread.
Screenshot OCR: pull the text out of any image entirely on your device, ready to select and copy.
Account backups now include image and video embeds
View Labels: see exactly which moderation labels a post carries, who applied them and when.
Account Data: browse your own repository in plain English or raw AT Proto, including records written by other AT Proto apps.
Post timestamps can now show the actual clock time instead of "2h", from Timeline settings.
Long-press a chat to peek at the last few messages without opening it.
LIVE badges now open the stream, and appear in the timeline as well as on profiles.
Mute someone's quote posts, alongside the existing repost mute.
Translate your own draft in the composer before you post it.
Dutch and French added as new internationalized languages in-app.

Chat unread checks use far less data — about 100 MB an hour less while the app sits idle.
The timeline decodes images off the main thread, so scrolling stays smooth.
Your reading position now remembers how far into a post you were, not just which post, and survives a relaunch.
Self-threads draw each post once, and macOS numbers the posts in a thread.
Feeds show how many people have liked them.
New Skyscraper artwork on the loading and sign-in screens, and the app icon picker now credits every icon's designer.

Editing a reply works, and an edited reply stays attached to its thread.
Signing out of one account lands on another instead of the sign-in screen.
Fixed feeds reordering themselves, and an endless rebuild loop that showed up as scroll stutter.
A person who liked several of your posts is counted once in notifications, not once per like.
Reply context shows the quoted post it used to drop.
GIFs play natively instead of through a hidden web view.
Long display names no longer squeeze the timestamp off a row.
Various bug fixes.
