History
February 12, 2025
Auto-scrolling
Witsend received an update to allow for auto-scrolling when new messages are sent (the most-requested feature) and a "send" button to ensure users can send messages from mobile devices.
Babacord invasion (aka "The First Fall of Witsend)
Witsend was also visited by several users from the "baba is you" Discord sever (aka "babacord") after Jony posted a link there.

Connection indicator / username textbox
Received updated that displays a connection indicator and your displayed username.

Colour usernames / mobile-friendly
Update that lets users pick a colour for their username. Also adds a text box at the top of the screen where users can type in their username, instead of being prompted when loading the page.
The update also made the UI more user-friendly when viewed on a mobile device.

"pay noneuclidean" button
Added "pay noneuclidean" button next to "send" button that generates a message saying "$X has been deposited into noneuclidean's account." where X is a random number. The range of possible values is unknown, but likely between 1-99 inclusive.
The button was subsequently removed later that day.

Timestamps
Timestamps added to messages. The first timestamped message was sent at 8:41am (JST). Panic mentioned that he's not sure what the best way to display timestamps is. Other users offered their suggestions.
![On the right side of the screen there is a timestamp on the same line as the message it corresponds to. Time stamps are only displayed if their value is different from the previous message's value. just kirb can you add the list of future implementations on witscopedia? [Bank of Witscord] Nope panic there is no list really messing with putting timestamps on messages right now kinda hard to find a good way that isn't intrusive discord's solution is honestly really good but i also kinda don't want to just remake discord _ when will you add putt party to witsend panic trying something for timestamps i think this might be too much space taken up on mobile i'll leave it like this for a bit in any case to see how it does Zimodo can you put it like next to the name or sm panic yeah that's what discord does might just do that i wanted to at least try something else first though today at 10rise:39 ?](/~staz/w/index.php/File:Witsend_timestamps.png)
Favicon
A favicon was also added.

Seal Gif
A button was added to the bottom right that send a gif of a happy seal. The gif was originally posted on Witscord by Noneuclidean (see: Nonposting). This is the first instance of non-ascii images being sent on Witsend.

Twitch Bridge (aka "The Second Fall of Witsend")
Prod created a bridge between Twitch and Witsend that allow viewers on Prod's stream to send messages to Witsend through the Twitch chat. This event was dubbed "The Second Fall of Witsend" by user Sus1d1p.
0rise formatted time support
Prod implemented a text command ("!0rise [city]") that will output the current time in the 0rise format created by Panic.
For example, inputting "!0rise hiroshima" at 15:02 JST will output "[🌙] Time at Hiroshima, Japan: 8rise:19 / 20set:59" (sent through Prod's user).
