Releases
- Sep 14, 2026 9.16.2### Changed - Deploy settings now says how many of your names are waiting to be taken back, and stays quiet when there are none ### Fixed - Names you published before shakespeare.wtf changed hands are recognized as yours as you type them — the Deploy screen offers to hand them back instead of reporting them taken by somebody else
- Sep 13, 2026 9.16.0### Added - Take back the sites you published before shakespeare.wtf changed hands — Deploy settings now lists every name that's waiting for you and hands them all back at once, republished under your own key - Deploys report which relays accepted your site, and can fill in any that missed it without republishing ### Changed - Deploying to Shakespeare now publishes your site to Nostr under your own key, so it stays readable by any Nostr site viewer with or without shakespeare.wtf - Recovered sites are titled whatever they call themselves rather than after their web address ### Fixed - Deploying to Shakespeare works again — it had been reporting success while changing nothing, because the host it uploaded to no longer serves those addresses
