I think we can show more text on initial load in-stream?

**Brain Development Immediate-Term Updates**
**1. Replies as Drops**
Replies as drops remains our #1 priority. The struggle is real on the design/UX. We have gone through like 5 versions so far we did not like.
Hopefully we will find one in the next couple of days that is good enough to release
**2. Performance**
@[GelatoGenesis] is back in action so hopefully we can start optimizing speed of various actions in Brain
**3. 6529 Core for Mac**
We have our signing credentials now so we will see if we can get the Mac app out
This is the wave for 6529 Core (Desktop App) Release.
The latest releases will be the most recent post here.
Note that the app also auto-updates so if you have an existing version, it should auto-update
VLADA!

Wednesday:
[@C4RDlNAL](https://x.com/C4RDlNAL)
Friday: Still thinking about what matches best
the notifications and workflow after minting/signing to go back to to the app are not great.
you have to press a button on app and then that pops another default windows button in a different color and with weird local port text.
we need to make this more normie friendly
don't know if real or episodic but after minting from desktop app and returning to mint page, took a long time to get back to my stream
minted from desktop. incredible experience. super pumped. the beginning of the uncensorable network.
we need to fix the publishing side too but we have a plan for that. a few months and it will all work end to end uncensorable.
there is no equivalent in NFTs. seize and etherscan are both censorable for example (they are websites)
I think / hope we will most of the team back on Monday from various summer vacations.
This is needed too though! People need to recharge their brains
on app when scrolling down the My Stream it can be slow to load / gets stuck.
I would pre-load a couple more screens worth at any point in time for a smoother experience
@[prxt0] for some reason on app:
1) My Stream stopped working
2. it is constantly popping the browser wallet connector
@[simo] i think we can probably handle this odd shaped image differently :)
https://seize.io/waves/e933d8d6-0c78-4e8f-aa12-f67d8c11b4dc?drop=9e9753e8-ca93-4bad-9051-462c25ad2744
@[prxt0] dunno if I am dumb but I think I can't get a URL reference for a drop from the app so we will need an explicit share button to get it since you don't have the explicit URL in the browser bar.
having said that, I think the web would also benefit from a share button so i think we can do it for both - and have a share option that is copy link, but also progressively add social media sites etc
A few other app update items for @[prxt0]
1. I am probably dumb but I did not find the in-app update button (just did it on startup)
2. When you do it on startup, I think you probably need some indicator that it is happening (a persistent window with progress bar or something because otherwise you have no real idea that anything is happening)
3. The window to start the update disappears as the app comes to life and you need to find it behind the app window. I wonder if you should make it a blocker that you have to say yes/no to proceed to the app
4. When you say 'update now' it probably should not give you the modal of you should shut down the app in the background or not and just go ahead and quit the app without popping that
5. separately from all that, will probably need some release notes / some urgency notes on app updates so people know what they are updating
@[prxt0] if you can get rid of these default Windows scroll bars, that would be great; they are ruining your futuristic vibe ;)
either make them black or invisible I guess
@[prxt0] some strange transparency on the About menu
@[prxt0] dunno if you can, but if you can style this like the rest of the app, it will look prettier
@[prxt0] dunno if you can, but if you can style this like the rest of the app, it will look prettier
You may be wondering:
1) why was our 6529 Core decentralized app delayed by MSFT for Windows and
2) still delayed by Apple for Mac
3) Can't we just release?
4) Of course, and we have been working with the pre-release versions for weeks.
5) But without a publisher signing key both Mac and PC will show scary messages on installation so we decided to get a publisher key for now to not scare everyone :)
6529 Core
**6529 Core 0.0.1, Take 2**
Version with faster download links
This version has faster download links. I will repeat the intro text too so we can use this one link
**Overview**
OK alpha testers, time for something important.
1. Today we ship v0.0.1 of 6529 Core for Windows and Linux. We are still waiting for some signing credentials for Apple/Mac, but the app is otherwise ready for Mac too and we hope in the coming days/weeks to have Mac live too.
2. 6529 Core is the desktop app, the true beginning of the 6529 Network
3. What you will find on 6529 Core today is the full Seize.io experience, running on your own computer.
4. For now, the app is getting its data (the backend) from our API, but over the next weeks and months we will:
a) read data directly from the blockchain
b) do calculations (e.g. TDH) locally
c) serve TDH from the 6529 Core and some smart contracts
d) move CIC/REP/Brain to peer-to-peer
5. Once all of this is accomplished, the whole protocol will be decentralized and even if we (the 6529 team) "go away" everything will run decentralized forever. We will still have a website but the website will just be reading from the network, just like Etherscan reads from Ethereum nodes
6. There are many challenges ahead, but today is the beginning of the beginning of the real thing - a decentralized network for building, well, a decentralized network society
7. What we need from you:
a) download it and start using it (in preference to the web)
b) submit your comments/bug reports to the alpha wave
c) we have been running the desktop app for weeks now (not going through the web) and our strong preference is that you do so too for your desktop needs
8. What about mobile?
a) We will make mobile apps too but mobile apps will be read only.
b) We think the performance needs of the nodes are only viable on desktops / laptops / servers and this is what we plan to make the decentralized network.
c) Mobile will come soonish for convenience though.
9. I cannot overstate how excited I am.
a) We are at the beginning of a decentralized and unstopppable network now.
b) We think we know what technical steps we need to do to remove any centralized dependencies and we have a pathway now to do it bit by bit, making more and more functionality decentralized
c) my guess is that by first part of 2025 the whole network can operate without us

1. I think we can move to do making the main minting page for the Memes the one on Seize.
2. I have used it the last couple of weeks with no problem
3. If anyone else has had a recent problem, please flag here
4. Maybe starting next week, we direct people to the seize page (leave the manifold page as backup)
5. And 2-3 weeks after that, we decommission the manifold page altogether
6. Let me know your views

I think we need to bring My Waves to to the right hand side too, not just Popular waves
So
**My Waves**
[top x of my waves]
See More
**Popular Waves**
[top x of popular waves]
See More
I know you may not have the endpoint for top x of my waves yet but we can add when @[GelatoGenesis] come back. I think the metric should be "how often I have posted there recently (say last 2 weeks) because the idea there is that it is a shortcut, a fast way to get to the waves you use a lot

Both "My Stream" and "Notifications" show the dummy intro text for a second before bringing in the real values - no need for that dummy text to show
Title: Meme BUIDLoors
Wednesday: @esraeslen

New Release we are testing
1. @[simo] will make the formal announcement
2. notifications are live in right corner and as other tab in your feed (it should show mentions, likes, replies and quote drops)
3. We have I think fixed the mention selector in Drops that was broken for Chromium browsers so now you can mention people properly
4. Please use / test / send feedback
5. Coming next: Replies as drops

in case you are wondering what happens at Casa 6529 after a couple of drinks
"last night i dreamed a 6529 dev built a crypto utility tool; at our hackathon, we discovered that Eric Schmidt & Arianna Huffington (!) funded a competitor; met Eric to discuss, & well, now I wish I could remember what the tool was, was in case it was a good idea"
LOLOLOLOLOL - it was piravlos who made the tool in the dream and now I am racking my brain to see if I can remember what it did - maybe it it was a good thing we need to build[

no, I am not going to tell you what it is.
yes, I will tell you that I think the nodes will be great.

Friday surprise is not to be. very very close but not quite ready. actually, ready from our side, but waiting for some tradtech approvals.

Happy 3rd Birthday to the one and only!!!

FYI, Simo is under the weather today and he valiantly dragged himself out of bed to solve the bug with My Stream but he might be harder to find later.
I told him to go back to bed!
There was a bug in My Stream this morning and it was not loading. We think we have resolved it but let us know if it has not be resolved for you.
