The "Tip the Mapper" card now links the avatar/name to the mapper's profile
(/{npub} via the NIP-19 router) and adds a "Message Mapper" button that opens
an encrypted DM (/messages/{npub}). Makes it easy to contact whoever added a
spot — e.g. to ask them to add photos to a photoless submission. The message
button is hidden when you're viewing your own spot.

Add issue #5 (2026-08-08) to NEWSLETTER_ISSUES with a Groucho-Marx satiric
tone. Highlights: the 3x-bigger Lab (10 crafts), the Lab mobile grid fix,
Crews covering every scene with opt-in visibility + web-of-trust vouching,
the redesigned CrewDetail page, and Music<->Events interconnect. Mocks
"OpenCrack" for volunteering to fix Bitcoin's crypto libraries, and owns
that the app has never been audited (one day it will be — and we'll shoot
ourselves in both feet). Includes matching nostrText teaser for kind 1.

Expanded Drop #003 from 7 to 16 update cards covering everything actually
shipped this session (per git log), grouped: the geolocation war (crash
fix, parallel first-fix GPS, progress UI, you-are-here pin, crash-proofing,
no-provider messaging), Spot Status Reports (reporting, trust/recency
consensus, badges, gone-spot hiding), Quick Snap camera-first + snap→Add
Spot, Amber signing timeout + plugin fix, crew/Lab DELETION via NIP-09
(framed as the new deletion capability, not the existing features), and
native build plumbing.
Cranked the tone harder throughout and leaned fully into the "weekly
newsletter, shipped whenever the f*** we want" bit in both the vibe line
and masthead. Updated nostrText to match.

- "Issue" replaced with "Drop" everywhere in UI and copy:
Drop #001, Weekly Drops, Write Drop #002, next drop, etc.
- nostrText: hashtags consolidated to one line (some clients break
each hashtag onto its own line when separated by newlines)
- nostrText: removed "Full issue:" prefix — bare URL unfurls cleaner
- 6 hashtags added: #skateboarding #nostr #skatespots #spotr
#newsletter #skatespotsnews
- Publish button tags updated to include all 6 as t-tags
- Template comment updated to match new format

Kind 1 notes render differently on every client (Damus, Primal, Amethyst,
Snort, etc). The fix: keep the kind 1 as a 5-line teaser that works as
plain text on any client, with the full formatted issue at the URL.
Issue #001 nostrText trimmed from 14 lines to 4.
Added template comment with rules for all future issues:
- Max 5 content lines before the URL
- No bullet lists
- URL always on its own line
- 3 hashtags max

- Page container: py-8 on mobile + pb-24 so content clears fixed bottom nav
- Masthead headline: single line (no br), text-4xl mobile / text-6xl sm+
- Issue header: vertical stack on all screens — date/badge row, large number,
vibe text, then publish button full-width on mobile / auto on sm+
- Stats grid: always 3 cols (clean 2-row layout on phone), larger text-2xl
numbers, text-[10px] labels readable on all Androids, shorter relay label
- Floating pill: max-w-[calc(100vw-1.5rem)] prevents overflow on narrow screens,
right-3 tighter margin, whitespace-nowrap on text, touch-manipulation +
active:scale-95 for native tap feel, correct bottom offset for iOS safe area
- Monday admin banner: unchanged, already stacks correctly
