As we're getting closer to an eventual release of the new version, we'd like to ask: 👀 What are you most looking forward to for Colibri? Please reply! Your answers will help us redesign our website a bit to match our new feature set.

It is now tomorrow, and so here it is: the Colibri Spaces Alpha now has an all-new UI, ready for you to test before the final release! ... It may have custom emojis 👀 For instructions on how to get started, head to github.com/colibri-soci.... Please let us know if you run into any issues!

We have added the bridge using our own way with the game-chat (in the stupid way) in our discord go test it out spaces.colibri.social/invite/Y6bgC...

Colibri Social@colibri.social

You can try this out now on the spaces alpha! Please be advised that your communities there will not carry over to the eventual live version. You need a spaces-compatible account to log in. Are you interested in making your own bridge? Check out the docs: spaces.colibri.social/docs/bridges...

Don't mind us. Just crossing a bridge

We should mention that this includes: - Custom channel to channel mapping - Real-time sync - Optional backfill for old messages, which is configurable ... and the entire system can be adapted to work with any Platform other than Discord, like Slack or a Minecraft server.

Now in the Colibri spaces alpha: multi-activity and game activities! We've been developing a lexicon for game activity sharing in the ATProto Games WG and it's slowly getting ready. You can use sync.atplay.games to link your Steam and Discord, then head to spaces.colibri.social/app to try it out!

Our Feeling of Computing Slack-to-ATProto bridge has been upgraded to be bidirectional, so posting in ATProto on @colibri.social writes back into Slack. Another step towards weening ourselves FoC off Slack. 9 years (!) of history has been backfilled code here wiki.feelingof.com/slack-colibr...

Consider this my public announcement that I would LOVE to hold talks about @colibri.social at future events. I think there's stories to be told there, and lots of things to learn from for other people building things in the atmosphere. It's also, frankly, a ridiculous story in so many ways...

Besides our Open Collective, we now have GitHub Sponsors! If you'd like to support development and server costs, and get a cool badge for it, please check it out! opencollective.com/colibri-social github.com/sponsors/col... (Shoot us a message after sponsoring on GitHub, that's not automated yet!)

I guess this is the part where I mention what I've been cooking for @colibri.social besides the Spaces work. Still WIP, but a step towards a polished release UI that feels presentable. Feedback appreciated!

Would people be interested in me streaming my endeavors about this?

The most significant extension to the protocol since launch—atproto spaces—is now officially alpha software you can start testing with. Here's more about the goals and how to start testing. atproto.com/blog/atproto...

So, awkward bit of info. If you signed up for the waitlist before, we'll have to ask you to sign up again. We forgot to properly wire in the database connection. Terribly sorry about this one!

An open network is only open when it's easy to distribute 🛜 That's why we've made our AppView easy to self-host - and included a federation feature so it can talk to other AppViews! Available for testing July 25.

Voice channels are where you communicate - and now, they're built into our AppView, making it easier than ever to have voice and video calls! 🔊 The new AppView will be available July 25.

🔒🔒🔒 Let's talk permissions 🔒🔒🔒 When the beta drops, you'll be able to define which roles can do what, where they can chat, and if they can join voice chats. 🎉 Available July 25

New communities means new features... 👀 Introducing Roles: an easy way to manage permissions and give your community a fresh look. 🎉 Experience them in-app starting July 25.

Continuing our posting streak up to the release: Communities have been reworked! When the beta launches on July 25, owners can migrate them to the new system with a single click. 👇🏻

The wait is almost over. Mark your calendars, save the date: the Colibri Social beta releases on July 25! 🎉 Follow us for more teases over the next week. You don't want to miss this.
