@dansup excited to try it out 🙌
@dansup booooo Apple, what are they rejecting it for??
There’s definitely been a small (but noticeable) shift in how Apple’s treated us this past year; I’m hopeful it’s indeed a sign their approach to alternative marketplaces is evolving
Sup. the fediverse messenger is modular, and will support Matrix, Discord, Signal and other providers, allowing you to manage all your conversations easily, and with fine grained notifications, with one app. And the entire Sup. platform will be open source, and will target F-Droid and Altstore […]
