What's new
What changed on conspiracymatrix.com, newest first. Dates are when it went live. The version is the one shown by the title and in the footer.
Unreleased
0.2.6 (2026-10-19)
- Every person and every person-on-subject has its own address, such as /p/joe-rogan/jfk. A shared link now previews that person, with their own image, title and lead quote, instead of the homepage, and search engines can find each profile. Old links still work.
- Corrections: a Stephen Colbert line about chemtrails, wrongly filed under Seth Meyers, is gone from his record. A Rachel Maddow post that never mentions chemtrails no longer counts there.
0.2.5 (2026-10-19)
- A research round across everyone on the grid, strongest on the Blue side: over a hundred new lines, each checked against its link, and 53 subjects that showed No stance found now have one. Rachel Maddow has a stance on 11 subjects, up from 6.
- Summaries and hover cards say "matched at source", the same words as the badges, and the header mentions tapping a tile for phones.
- Addresses that don't exist get a proper not-found page, and search engines get a real robots.txt and sitemap.
- Tighter security: the browser is told which sources the site may load, and the site can't be framed by another page.
- The side badge says "conspiracy subjects", since belief in a creator is shown but never counted toward Red or Blue.
0.2.4 (2026-10-19)
- A How it works page: what a tile means, where each line comes from, how lines are found and read, how the sides and the consensus are decided, corrections and the right of reply. Linked from the header and the footer.
- Every line's badge now says where its words were seen, with an explanation on hover: a reviewer checked the original, the app matched them in their own post or captions, a named site quotes them, or they are not matched to a source yet. Nothing is labelled "unverified" any more, since that read as "maybe fake" when it meant "quoted by Newsweek".
0.2.3 (2026-10-19)
- The title keeps its red and blue in dark mode, instead of fading to pink and pale blue.
0.2.2 (2026-10-19)
- The red and blue of the tiles are a step calmer and matched in weight, in light and dark.
0.2.1 (2026-10-19)
- The version tag by the title opens this page, and the footer's What's new link uses the same address.
0.2.0 (2026-10-19)
- Dark mode. The site follows your phone or computer's setting; a button in the header, left of Suggest, switches between auto, light and dark and remembers your choice in this browser. The red and blue of the tiles are the same in both.
- Pages load in a quarter of the data they did: smaller profile pictures, the text around each quote fetched only when a profile opens, and the record downloaded alongside the app.
- The page carries its full contents in plain text for search engines, link previews and AI tools, which saw an empty page before.
- Quote cards for sharing, drawn from the record: one person, one subject, the lead quote with its date, source and a link to their page.
0.1.1 (2026-10-19)
- First public release at conspiracymatrix.com: the matrix, profiles with every sourced line, the consensus tables, discussion with votes and comments, suggestions checked against their link, and exports as CSV, JSON and Markdown.
- Link previews when the site is shared, a corrections address with a right of reply in the footer, and a way to support the research.
- The reviewer's grading notes are no longer part of the public record.
