Implements issue #56 with a timeline-style activity feed showing recent user activity across the library. Activity Types Displayed: - Suggestions: Shows suggested items with status badges - Likes: Shows liked content with links to items - Comments: Shows comments with preview text - Achievements: Shows earned achievements with icons and points Database & Backend: - Created ActivityService to aggregate from existing data sources - No new database table needed (uses existing suggestions, likes, comments, achievements) - Efficient querying with parallel data fetching - Privacy-aware: Only shows activity from users with profilePublic: true - Filters out banned users automatically API Endpoints: - GET /api/activity - Get general activity feed with pagination - GET /api/activity/:userId - Get specific user's activity - Query parameters: limit (max 100, default 50), offset (default 0) - Returns: activities array, total count, hasMore flag Frontend Activity Feed: - Beautiful timeline layout with user avatars and badges - Relative timestamps ("5m ago", "2h ago", "3d ago") - Activity type icons (💡 💬 ❤️ 🏆) - Colour-coded status badges for suggestions - Comment previews with styled quote blocks - Achievement displays with icons and points - Infinite scroll with "Load More" button - Links to user profiles and content items UI Components: - Responsive card-based design - User avatars with placeholder fallback - Badge display (STAFF, MOD, VIP, primary badges) - Entity links that route to appropriate media pages - Clean typography and spacing - Loading and empty states Privacy & Performance: - Respects profilePublic setting (existing privacy control) - Only displays activity from non-banned users - Pagination to prevent loading too much data - Efficient aggregation with limit multipliers - Clean separation of concerns (service/routes/component) Navigation: - Added /activity route - Added "📰 Activity Feed" link to user dropdown menu - Positioned between Leaderboard and About Implementation Notes: - Built entirely from existing data (no activity table needed) - Retroactive: Shows all historical activity automatically - Type-safe with full TypeScript interfaces - Activity union type for type discrimination - Standalone Angular component - Clean, maintainable code structure
