Hello and welcome to March! Here’s the latest news from us:

Ongoing

• Good progress on updating changes in real-time. This both makes collaboration faster and reduces server load, so we prioritized this for providing a more reliable service.
• Great process on frontend performance optimization. We’ve identified a core cause behind the lag for large documents, and we’re rewriting lots of our frontend code to do things the new way. This would make loading and scrolling much faster for huge documents.

Improved

• Added link to the destination item in the success popup when moving items. That way, you can easily go where you’ve moved the item, to check it out or do other things.
• As part of the server reliability initiative, we added a request exponential back-off system. This means if the server is briefly unavailable, the clients won’t “spam” the server at a fixed frequency so hard that the server has trouble restarting. From past experience, this would shorten downtime if sh*t does happen.

Fixed

• [UI/minor] Fixed document titles not displaying in Search Everywhere results.
• [Gcal] Fixed the link in the description field always points back to the document but not the particular item.
• [UI/minor] Fixed the “Zoom in” options showing “Bookmark this list” after zooming in. It did not change what happens when you choose that option; only the tooltip text is wrong.
• [UI/minor] Fixed cannot open Dropbox/Google Drive/Google Calendar authorization links on the desktop app.

We’ve also updated our changelog to reflect our latest focus, namely Dynalist Capture extension and API (alpha). So excited to get our hands on them!
