Changelog

Restores the original compact sharing links and corrects the release history for the reverted redesign.

Interface

• The homepage uses the original black X, blue Facebook and green WhatsApp sharing links again. Leftover replacement markup and its added styling are removed.

Release history

• The v6.6.0 redesign entry is removed because that version was reverted and was not deployed.

Restores the missing styling for the homepage social sharing controls.

Interface

• X, Facebook and WhatsApp sharing links now have separate padded buttons, visible spacing and keyboard focus indicators.
• The sharing row wraps on small screens and uses matching light and dark theme styling.

The video download page prepares MP4 and MP3 files before offering a download link.

YouTube downloads

• Prepare MP4 or MP3 on the video download page. A download link is shown only after the server creates a non-empty file; failed preparation shows a message instead.
• Prepared links belong to the visitor session and last up to 15 minutes. Existing generation limits and automatic cleanup remain; repeated preparation can reuse a ready file.
• Preparation works without JavaScript too. YouTube restrictions and temporary failures still apply; unavailable files are not advertised as ready.

Fixes confirmed problems with offline reading progress, chapter lookup recovery, download cleanup and provider retries while retaining the current site layout.

Manga

• Reading pages that have already loaded now saves progress and chapter completion even after the connection drops. Hidden tabs still do not advance reading progress.
• Chapter lookup distinguishes temporary provider failures from missing chapters, uses the existing recovery flow and validates chapter numbers before requesting them.

Downloads and services

• Generated-file cleanup waits until conversion slots are idle. An MP4 download keeps its slot through file delivery so another request cannot clean up an active download.
• Video pages set error status codes before rendering, avoiding headers-already-sent warnings when a video ID is invalid or conversion is unavailable.
• Shared service caches respect longer provider Retry-After delays and retain eligible cached results while waiting.

Maintenance

• Apache access rules cover PHP backup suffixes and editor backup files. Nginx deployments require the equivalent server rule supplied with this update.
• The cleanup upload checks now match the current supplied source, including removal of four unused interface-file requirements. Existing obsolete-file safeguards and historical release entries are retained.

Video downloads can now combine separate YouTube video and audio streams on the server instead of depending on a pre-combined format being available.

YouTube downloads

• The video download page now requests an MP4 up to 720p and uses FFmpeg to merge separate video and audio streams when YouTube makes them available to the server.
• Generation is limited to 30-minute videos, a 250 MB final file, one concurrent video job, a short per-session cooldown and three attempts per hour per visitor by default.
• Generated files are kept in the existing protected MP4 directory, streamed as downloads and removed after the request; stale leftovers are cleaned automatically.
• The downloader uses the server connection directly. Videos for which YouTube requires sign-in from the server remain unavailable rather than being routed through a visitor or proxy connection.
