 At 10:30 CST (1 hour from this post timestamp), we will be opening up alpha slots at the following link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/4Y8gUsMq Keep in mind: 1. This is an early alpha. Many things are missing and consider everything a work in progress. 2. Send us feedback via the contact button in the settings or beta@tapbots.com. Don’t use the TestFlight feedback system. We don’t read those often. 3. Enjoy using an alpha product! 🙃 @ivory Page was the same “Beta is full” banner for a minute until, after repeatedly refreshing, it showed the two steps. Tapping “Open in TestFlight”… aaand full.  @ivory holy crap those went fast, I reloaded the page at 10.30 and the beta was full. @ivory Noooo! I saw the invite but it said "Testflight not available" in the Testflight app and then the beta was full😢  @ivory been tapping the link for 3 minutes and it still says full, must have missed it. sigh. @ivory Made it to the landing page in TestFlight this time, but after tapping Accept it errored: “TestFlight unavailable” - but I will keep trying!  @ivory dang, was refreshing at 8:29 and beyond, never saw anything other than full—congrats to everyone who made it in  @ivory And I’m in. Hooray and thanks! Had two rounds of bad token dialogs before successfully logging in, FWIW. On mastodon.social with 2FA. @ivory The Testflight page from Apple literally never changed from "This beta is full." to anything else and I know how to camp. I bought a PS5. 😭 @ivory I was refreshing the TestFlight link every second and it always said “full”. I think there must be some sort of caching or queuing that prevents some folks from seeing an opening. It literally could not have been a time thing for me. @ivory Do you have any rough timing for a public beta or a full release? I was refreshing the page the whole time and didn’t even see a chance to apply for a seat. 🙁  @ivory Hooray, I got in, and after five minutes I can tell it’s a game changer for the Mastodon experience. Looking forward to playing with it some more. @ivory I was here on time but still showing as full. Maybe send invites to your existing, paying, subscribers first? @ivory Woo! I got in this time. Got lucky too, I just woke up randomly at like 10:25 and saw the notification XD @ivory I tried at 10:30 on the dot and every 15 seconds or so thereafter. Did I miss it?!  @ivory Made it :) This time clicking open in testflight from the website right at 10:30 let me right in. @ivory Was it even open? I kept refreshing every few seconds but only got “This beta is full.”   @ivory how is it possible that people somehow managed to get in but I couldn’t, even though I started refreshing at 10:29? What am I missing? 😢 @ivory I was reloading constantly from 5m before to 5m after and never saw anything other than "This beta is full." So, I'm sad that I didn't get in, but I guess that I'm happy that there's enough interest in Ivory that 500 slots can disappear in under 3/4 of a second? I guess? |

@ivory I got a "Client authentication failed due to unknown client, no client authentication included, or unsupported authentication method." during login just now. Is this normal?
