What’s new at Inkwell

February 2026

The editor now has a focus mode toggle in the toolbar. Click it (or look for the expand icon at the end of the toolbar) to hide the navigation bar, footer, cover image section, mood/music strip, and entry settings — leaving just the title, toolbar, and writing area. Press Esc to exit focus mode anytime. Write without distractions!

Community suggestion

The editor now shows a live word count as you write, and published entries display an estimated reading time ("X min read") on feed cards and the entry detail page. Word count is computed server-side at save time and stored for fast display. Reading time is calculated at 200 words per minute.

Admins can now set Priority (Low / Medium / High / Critical) and Value Score (1–5) on any feedback post. These triage fields appear in the admin status panel on each roadmap item and help prioritize the queue.

Follow requests are fully implemented. When you follow a private account, they receive a notification and can accept or reject the request. The follow button correctly shows pending state, and accepting/rejecting auto-marks the notification as read.

Fixed\! Added a retry mechanism to session validation to handle Fly.io cold starts. The app now retries once after a brief delay if the initial session check fails, preventing intermittent sign-outs during page navigation.
