This week there’s not much to report on. Work continues on the Memory client app, 🤞🏾fingers crossed that there are no issues. The focus is still to produce native apps for Android and iOS.
Currently we are testing ways to make federation and other aspects more efficient. We are testing ActivityPub relays and now they can be used to improve the situation. Atproto and Nostr makes good use of relays so maybe there’s some innovative ideas to be had on that front.
That’s all for this week!
Man it has come so quickly. Do any of you keep up either the pre-draft content? What sources do you use for NFL content?
It’s been some time since my last update. We’ve just been dealing with some life issues that have impacted development. This isn’t ideal but we use three times as learning opportunities. We’ve been working closely with the development team of ActivityPods and attending weekly meetings with them. We feel it’s important to be on the same page and have open dialogue. ActivityPods 2.0 should be here soon!
#Memory# We have started working on the client this week. The goals are to have native clients for Android and iOS. This also includes their respective devices such as iPadOS, macOS, watchOS and visionOS. The clients will be compatible with the ActivityPub specs and mastoapi. This will allow access to various fedi platforms and users. We do intend to have web app but that is for later down the road. We plan to do a slow rollout to get user feedback by having a closed beta and then an open beta.
#Platform#
This will answer is taking more work and time. What we have decided to do is fork Mastopod and spin up a Mastodon instance. This will provide the team and users with an open simulation of what it will be like on Memory platform. As we are taking a different approach than what has been done on fedi we want to get this right and provide the best experience possible.
Features in the wild## Some of the features that we have planned are currently available on Fediverse client Sora. A couple such features are Transformer Language Model thread summarisation. This is helpful for context and assists instead of reading a really long thread or it may create an interest in diving into the thread. The other feature is P2P video calling which allows users using the Sora app to make encrypted video calls.
Updates##
Going forward we will start providing weekly updates Thursdays or Fridays
Just wondering if you guys and the mods think it would be a good idea to have a thread for free agency moves and discussion?
It’s been a while since we’ve posted. Just wanted to shared a little of what we’ve been focusing on. We have decided to build a Swift framework for ActivityPods that will be Open Source.
ActivityPods already helps make the development process easier. We figured we’d contribute to that by building and releasing native frameworks to benefit developers. We should be pushing that out for testing soon.
I was thinking how people are upset at Remake as they feel it deviates too much from og. The creators have said that it will remain true to the original but maybe they weren't referring to the ideas but to the core themes of og. Seeing Sephiroth introduced so early in FF7R, the whispers, different worlds etc. It got me thinking about what Sephiroth said at the Temple of the Ancients. He said "It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury... What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha ha ha. And at the center of that injury, will be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with all the energy of the Planet, I will become a new life form, a new existence.Melding with the Planet... I will cease to exist as I am now... Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every soul." Remember he is in-between alive/dead as he has not be absorbed by the lifestream. The planet uses that to heal itself. If he casts Meteor he kills two birds with one stone. He kills people and mortally wounds the planet. When the planet goes to heal itself he will absorb the life energy. The worlds merging benefits him as maybe it takes two planets worth of life energy to become a god.
