If you aren't logged in with nostr you are getting an ephemeral room with random pubkeys, its a short lived public room with no mod controls.
If you want to create a room that is tied to your pubkey, login with nostr and then create a permanent room, it should publish using your logged in pubkey. These rooms also last longer (4 hrs vs 1), have mod controls, privacy controls and recording.

Stage 5 is LIVE 🐝
Free polls in every room. Audio-only recording. Subscriptions paid in sats. Smarter rooms across the board.

2026 Summer Stage 3 — ICS Calendar event, Notifications, Room Management & Updates, Bug Fixes
🔔 Notifications & Updates
A notification bell now shows the latest HiveTalk announcements, with a new Updates page for browsing previous news. Unread state is now correctly baselined from first visit so the badge shows the right count.
📅 Add Calendar downloads
When an event is created on HiveTalk Dashboard, a .ics event is now available for download.
🔐 Room Status
Active rooms now show lock, lobby, and mute-on-join status icons with hover tooltips. Mute-on-join persists across rejoin so moderators always see the correct state.
🛡️ Clearer Room Permissions
Ephemeral rooms explain that moderator controls require a permanent room. Guests now always see a "You are a guest" notice regardless of room type, and ephemeral notices appear in the Moderation tab for all participants.
🗑️ Safer Room Deletion
Room deletion now requires typing the room name and cleans up associated room data. Owner token minting and cascade-delete ordering are fixed so cleanup succeeds reliably, with clearer failure messaging.
💬 Improved Chat Controls
The chat composer has cleaner controls, and messages can now be sent by pressing Enter.
🏠 HiveTalk Branding
The HiveTalk logo and wordmark now appear in the meeting settings panel.
📋 Automatic Release Notes
The "What's New" card now loads the latest published release notes automatically from GitHub.
🌐 Relay & Infrastructure
The default Nostr relay has been switched from relay.damus.io to relay.nostr.net across the codebase. LiveKit API proxies have been hardened with regression coverage, and responsive styles and room joins have been restored.
👤 Pre-Join & Username
New users see their pubkey prefix as a default username on the PreJoin page. Camera and mic selections from PreJoin are now preserved when entering the room. Fallback usernames no longer override edited names.
🧹 UI Cleanup
Stale "Latest Updates: May 2026" and "New · Lock, Lobby" badges have been removed. The broken Top Rooms link is hidden while the underlying endpoint is being fixed. Compact toasts have been restored.
🔒 Security
XSS mitigations added to Active Rooms tiles. Dependency vulnerabilities resolved. Allowed origins updated to support wildcard domains.

Summer '26 Stage 2 release notes
Audience Mode, Reactions & Expandable Menu
🎭 Audience Mode + Raise Hand
Per-room audience mode toggle. Audience members get canPublish=false, canPublishData=true (they can chat/react but not broadcast audio/video). Stage members (owner/mod/promoted speakers) keep full publish grants. Promote/demote uses LiveKit UpdateParticipant for live grant changes with no reconnect, AND persists stage membership to DB so grants survive reconnect/refresh/token regen. Toggling audience mode mid-room iterates current participants and updates their grants live, with a broadcast data message for immediate UI sync.
✋ Raise Hand
lk.raisehand topic carries { event, participant_identity, pubkey?, display_name? } — LiveKit identity is used for tile mapping and promote actions, pubkey only for profile display. ✋ indicator on tiles + a moderator queue list in RoomControls with "Bring to stage" action. Twitter-Spaces-style layout: stage tiles in grid, audience as a compact avatar strip; verified on small mobile screens.
🎉 Emoji Reactions on Tiles
lk.reactions topic { emoji, participant_identity } renders a floating emoji overlay on the sender's tile that fades over ~4s. Client-side rate-limited. Reuses the EmojiPickerPopover from Stage 1 with a limited reaction set.
⌃ Expandable "^" Vertical Menu
New ExpandableMenu replaces the leave slot in the custom control bar. A chevron "^" expands upward into a vertical list: Raise Hand, Reactions (mini emoji popup), and Leave (red, destructive style). Sits above the video layer and transparent chat layer with top z-index; works within the existing mobile floating pill bar CSS.

Summer '26 Stage 1 Release
Highlights for the current release! Out today!
⚡ Zap Notifications in Chat
When a participant zaps another participant, a structured ⚡ system entry appears in chat: "⚡ sender zapped recipient, N sats ⚡". Uses a dedicated lk.zap data topic with a typed payload — not parsed from chat text, so it can't be spoofed. Sender and recipient display names are plumbed from the participant tile through to the payment modal.
🔒 Lock/Unlock Disconnect & Toast Visibility
Reproduced and fixed the lock/unlock disconnect behavior live (two-browser test). Restyled the disconnect/reconnecting toast to amber/orange so transient connection states are clearly visible against the video layer.
😀 Emoji Picker in Chat
A small curated emoji popover in the chat input — inserts at cursor, no new dependency. Componentized as EmojiPickerPopover for reuse by Stage 2 reactions.
💾 Download Chat Transcript
Download icon in the chat header serializes the current chat to [HH:MM] Name: message lines and downloads as a .txt file. Room name is sanitized for the filename; falls back to hivetalk-chat-{date}.txt when no room name is available.
🔇 Mute Screenshare Audio (Per-Viewer)
Speaker toggle on the screenshare tile mutes ONLY the ScreenShareAudio publication for the local viewer — does not affect video, the mic track, or other participants. Mute state is tracked per participant + publication SID so it survives track re-publishes.
🛡️ Moderators Approve Lobby Joiners
Fixed the broken moderator lobby-approval flow. Root cause traced through the promote path — live LiveKit participant attributes now correctly reflect moderator="true", and mods can approve/deny lobby requests end-to-end. Regression test added.
special thanks to @buttercup and @yeghro

PRIVATE ROOMS are the best way to make sure only whitelisted npubs you previously assigned to the room can join the call.

2026-05-21 17:19:00 UTC

Sometimes you want a LOBBY on your OPEN rooms to choose who to let in,
Sometimes you want a PRIVATE room where only WHITELISTED npubs can join.
You can pick whichever works best for you :)

2026-05-20 20:22:00 UTC

Stumble upon a locked room?
If LOBBY is ON, you can always request access so the owner can let you in!

2026-05-19 04:15:00 UTC

Best thing about ROOM LOCK is that you can ENABLE THE LOBBY to allow for guests on the outside to request access to join.

Once inside a room, you can stay inside after the owner chooses to lock it.
Perfect for online classes, when everyone arrived, the owner can simply LOCK.

Thanks for the feedback. We’ll take a look unfortunately the Apple redesigned their entire lower toll bar so we’re gonna have to figure out how to work around it.
