  • Zed (06 Jun 26)

    Publish a single multi-arch Docker image Build amd64 and arm64 natively (no emulation), push each by digest, then merge them into one multi-arch manifest so `zedeus/nitter:latest` and `:<sha>` resolve to the right image on any CPU. Replaces the separate `latest-arm64` tag, which is no longer needed. Update the README notes accordingly.

  • Zed (06 Jun 26)

    Use Nim 2.2.6 for Docker builds, unify arm64 nimlang/nim's alpine-regular images cap at 2.2.6 and are now multi-arch, while Alpine's apk nim is stuck at the segfaulting 2.2.0. Base both arches on 2.2.6-alpine-regular, drop the separate Dockerfile.arm64, and build ./Dockerfile in the arm64 CI job. Fixes #1404
