Back home! Well…most of the way. 📍Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport Saint Paul, MN

One of the things I check for in my app is how often do I need to go back to using Bluesky directly? The Midst is intended to be a standalone app, but a social one. The ability to post pictures and follow reply threads are probably the two biggest hang ups.

On the ground less than hour in Seattle. Let’s see how much work I can get done on the plane for my ride home. 💻

Congratulations on shipping @danijelavrzan.com! apps.apple.com/us/app/nunch...

Early bird catches the early flight home. IAH -> SEA -> MSP

Hot and humid in Houston but I’m happy to have a new beta out for testing bringing the simple luxury of “replies” to the Bluesky feed. 📍Houston Airport Marriott at George Bush Intercontinental Houston, TX

Replying to a reply has me a little perplexed. A post has a root and a parent. Which can be the same if replying to the OG post. But if replying to a reply, you’re replying to the “parent” but the parent has a root. I think I have that right.

It’s a go-to spot in San Diego. 📍Ballast Point San Diego, CA

Catching up on some news letters with a Turkish Coffee. 📍Lofty Coffee San Diego, CA

Slowest Starbucks in the nation, but still coffee. 📍Starbucks SeaTac, WA

It’s been a “bug fixes and performance improvements” kind of day. Also just code organization.

I have almost no signal on this side of the hotel. Very strange

Already found a bug my new reply feature. Failure to reply to a reply, I thought I had that covered but nope. That’ll have to wait till tomorrow because I have an early flight in the morning. Goodnight New Jersey! 🌒

Since it’s nice to know what someone said when replying to them, I made sure to include the original text in the reply view for my app. I also appreciate the descriptive language of @timburks.me for this example!

Took a little walk into Hoboken for a quick dinner, now it’s back to working on ATproto replies.

I can say with certainty that ATC in Newark is functioning very well. 📍Newark Liberty International Airport Newark, NJ

Been working on not displaying reposts in my app. Here’s why, the app is location based social. Think “What’s happening where from who’s there?”. If I’m in Seattle and you’re in Tokyo and I repost your post, then I’ve just relocated your post! I need to think more about this…

And we just got to the gate. Another day in Seattle.

Nice day in Seattle.

The crowds and the noise are always the most jarring after a few days away from airports. 📍Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport Saint Paul, MN

End of work day

Fetching something good to make for dinner before I go on the road for 6 days. 📍Von Hanson’s, Rosemount Rosemount, MN

Has anyone using The Midst app ever had to re-connect it to your Bluesky account? I have not seen this issue yet and assume would have heard, but I still have to ask.
