    so far it seems like an over-marketed unfinished piece of vaporware. there was nothing to look at when it was first dripped months ago. or when the magical countdown stopped. or when no one received beta invites despite it being ‘this week’

    just seems like a lot of spamming the fed community now. happy to be proven wrong

      Dan seems to have trouble sticking with a single project. Sometimes it feels like he announces some new thing every week that never gets finished.

        Yeah I still remember his fediverse direct messaging platform. Haven’t heard about it since he announced it.

        Maybe he’s just too busy?

      Yeah it would have been enticing to see, you know, an actual video or the interface or at least something other than a logo.
