    Welcome to version 3.0 — our biggest and most ambitious release to date! This update introduces a completely redesigned experience with a powerful new Dual Dashboard system (Web and Terminal), Webhook / Discord notifications, native Color support, custom Output directory feature and advanced Follower Churn detection.

    A huge thank you to our amazing contributors @Sha-Dox, @tomballgithub, @YouveGotMeowxy and @jl-nr for their invaluable code, ideas and testing that made this release possible.

    Features and Improvements:

    • NEW: Added a comprehensive dashboard system accessible in terminal and web, including a Rich-powered Terminal Dashboard and a Flask-powered Web Dashboard with real-time stats, activity feeds and interactive controls; check the Terminal Dashboard and Web Dashboard for more info
    • NEW: Added webhook notifications system compatible with Discord and other webhook services for all monitored events with support for sending local image files; check the Webhook Notifications for more info
    • NEW: Implemented native color output support for terminal, enhancing user experience with customizable color themes (see COLORED_OUTPUT and COLOR_THEME config options). You can still use the old grc method if you prefer to only color the logs
    • NEW: Added follower churn detection (--followers-churn flag or FOLLOWERS_CHURN_DETECTION config option) - forces the tool to download and compare the full list of followers/followings even if the total count hasn't changed, allowing the detection of user handle changes or simultaneous additions and removals; check the Follower Churn Detection for more info
    • NEW: Added custom output directory feature to organize all files into target-specific subdirectories (images, videos, logs, json, csvs) which significantly improves organization for multi-target monitoring; check the Output Directory for more info (closes #35)
    • NEW: Added skip follow changes option (--skip-follow-changes flag or SKIP_FOLLOW_CHANGES config option) - allows to completely silence and disable follow-related tracking (console prints, activity logs, email/webhook notifications and CSV saving) while still maintaining live statistics in the dashboards; note that enabling this automatically disables follower churn detection as detailed tracking is suppressed; check the Skipping Follow Changes for more info
    • NEW: Implemented debug mode (--debug flag or DEBUG_MODE config option) - provides full technical logging including every API request and internal state changes
    • NEW: Introduced verbose mode (--verbose flag or VERBOSE_MODE config option) - provides a middle-ground logging level that shows timing details, next check schedule and loop completion messages without the exhaustive detail of Debug Mode
    • NEW: Added support for 12-hour time format (TIME_FORMAT_12H config option) across the entire tool including dashboards, console output, activity logs and email notifications
    • NEW: Implemented HTML formatting for email notifications for better readability
    • NEW: Added dashboard view modes - toggle between 'User' and 'Config' modes across both dashboards with a single keypress ('m') or button click; includes synchronized state throughout the tool
    • NEW: Implemented per-target logging - in multi-target mode, each user gets their own log file; common messages (like the summary screen) are automatically broadcasted to all active logs
    • IMPROVE: Enhanced CSV path resolution - CSV files are now automatically placed in a csvs/ subdirectory when OUTPUT_DIR and relative path is used. In multi-target mode, the tool always enforces per-user files (even with absolute paths) to ensure data isolation
    • IMPROVE: Enhanced CHECK_POSTS_IN_HOURS_RANGE logic to support disabling hour ranges and updated status message (to disable any range, set both MIN and MAXto 0);

    ... and many other improvements (check the list of commits for the release if you are interested)

    Bug fixes:

    • BUGFIX: Fixed recent post detection logic in anonymous mode (fixes #34)
    • BUGFIX: Expanded tabs to spaces in log files for consistent alignment
