Shipped

• Private video filtering – VideoListView now hides private uploads from shared feeds while still rendering them for their owners, keeping private sharing contained to the uploader’s views.
• Edit & Upload modals – Editing and publishing flows now rely on first-class modal forms with shared NIP-71 field management instead of browser pop-ups.
• Universal more/settings menus – Video cards expose consistent “more” and owner settings menus with channel navigation, sharing, blocking, and reporting actions wired through dedicated renderers.
• Watch History view – A dedicated watch history page ships with privacy messaging, pagination, relay sync, and local cache controls.
• Zap controls – Channel profiles manage zap visibility, login gating, retry flows, and receipt rendering via the Lightning controller on the page.
• Source visibility filtering – Lists now hide cards whose hosted URLs are offline unless their WebTorrent fallback is healthy, reusing the shared guard in js/utils/cardSourceVisibility.js.
• Video modal stability – Opening videos no longer refreshes the page when the modal launches.
