@ivory Prehistoric animals, to be precise.

@ivory and yet I couldn’t get in again. 😂

@ivory if you uninstall it, does it free a spot?

@ivory when’s the next drop 😅

@ivory When you make great products, you get that from people 😂 Can't wait to pay for this. You guys are awesome.

@ivory Thank you! Nice work.

@ivory 😢 again n too late. In second 14 😉

@ivory I missed it again because I got too consumed with solving bugs in my own software 🙈

@ivory wow that's quite some demand! That's exciting.

@ivory closed my birdsite account and with it gave up Tweetbot, definitely the best app. Got lucky with TF 🐘 😀 🎉🥳

@ivory 💅

@ivory glad i could snag one!

@ivory So far, so good. As an avid user of TweetBot, I can see that Ivory is going to be the killer-app for Mastodon. Extremely solid for an Alpha! 👍👍👍

@ivory 🥴
Refreshed the TestFlight page from -5min to +10min around the slot and nothing than this boring "beta is full" message ! Sooooooo sad

@ivory

@ivory dang, I missed it...

@ivory Noooooooooooooooo!!! 😭

@ivory finally got in this time! Thanks to all this training I can now join a TestFlight in mere picosconds!

@ivory Oh FFS, missed it again, think I’ll just wait for you to actually release it 😟

@ivory

@ivory
I lucked out and got in on the Alpha last night.

Haven’t ran into any bugs so far, just some feature requests. Is there a proposed feature list somewhere? I don’t want to submit some and have them already be under advisement.

@ivory Oh FFS, missed it again, think I’ll just wait for you to actually release it 😟

@ivory Thank god I get it!!! 👌😆

@ivory you are just greedy on the slots 😂

@ivory You should be so proud that your history and reputation has so many clammoring for your software!

@ivory ok I got in, now let us give you money!

@ivory Had a synchronised clock open, I knew the seconds would count 😂

@ivory of the species “futurias customerus”

@ivory We're just clamoring for a good Mastodon client app :)

@ivory 😭

@ivory I made it 🎊

@ivory we're elephants! ;)

@ivory Did miss it again too. Hope public version is not far away 🙏🏼

@ivory App is looking great!

@ivory Started refreshing at 10:28, every couple of seconds. Alas, no joy; yet 👀

1000 seats in 13s seems to be a pretty solid indication of people’s interest in Ivory 🤩

🦣

@ivory 🫡🫡

@ivory Just release it and take my money!! What’s the worst that could happen?😄

@ivory

@ivory already improving my Mastodon life! Thank-you, can’t wait to pay for the finished product

@ivory honestly, i'm glad to see it. i think it's a sign showing that mastodon is more than just a phase or a fad or an "alternative", but a social network capable of sticking around for the long run.

here's to the next generation of decentralized social media.

@ivory definitely proving out demand. 🤓 Did @Leehro get in?

@ivory I didn’t get one 😭

@ivory and I’m in! 🥳

@ivory hotter ticket than a Taylor Swift concert!!

@ivory This reminds me of that game in the Daytime #ThePriceIsRight called win up to $20K in 30 seconds. 😂

@ivory

@ivory thanks for the beta access.
I was ready this time. TestFlight link on left, test flight on right.

@ivory looking and working great on iPhone and iPad! Loving it!

@ivory it was full all the time. It’s just impossible to get hands on it

@ivory noooooooooo

@ivory when you have a proven track record of quality, everyone wants to be a part of your next big thing!

@ivory I didn’t have a chance, did I...

@ivory I hope the other 999 are -all- as appreciative as I am of the work you all have been putting in. Especially at this time of year.

@ivory Again missed the slot. Was preparing diner and having diner earlier and taking care of the kids. Had hoped for later tonight oh well. It is what it is.

@ivory I got in, thanks guys, this already looks awesome!! 🎉

@ivory You have to understand that everybody wants the best @Mastodon app in the universe...d8-D

@ivory And I miss the opening AGAIN! Maybe if I had an app for Mastodon like Tweetbot that wouldn't happen.

@ivory I was shocked how fats it went. I wasn’t able to get in. Maybe next time.

@ivory Mom always said I was one in a thousand.

@ivory WOW. Great job! Still missing a few things (like profile urls with verified check) but first impression is brilliant.

@ivory OMG I got lucky! 🤩

@ivory It doesn’t pay to do a good job except that it does.

@ivory good gravy, i had no chance

@ivory Am I too late? 😂

@ivory I sadly seem to always miss the spots, so I think I’m just settling at this point and hoping you have great testers that help the app be publish soon. :)

@ivory Or bots.

@ivory I've been refreshing for like 20 minutes 😢

@ivory It’s like trying to buy Taylor swift tickets.

@ivory I made it in this time! I’ll do my best to provide useful feedback. Amazing so far.

@ivory I’m finally in! 💪💪💪

@ivory thanks for opening up an EU time slot for TestFlight signup. Managed to get in 👍

@ivory anyone know how that link works then? I got the “all full” from 10:30:00 onwards.

@ivory I set a timer and started refreshing at 10.29. It worked!

@ivory See? There is an urgent need for Ivory 🙏😁

@ivory 🚀

@ivory feral hogs got nothing on tapnerds

@ivory Android app please!

@ivory Damn I missed it again 😭😭😭😭😭

@ivory We love your work and dedication

@ivory give us more slots! xD

@ivory 😔

@ivory wow - for an alpha release, this is spectacular! Exactly what mastodon needs!

@ivory Damn, always too late.

@ivory not to sound all are-we-there-yet-ish, but do you guys have a roadmap to a release date—anticipation for when Ivory hits the app store is building way more than a bottle of heinz.

@ivory as soon as you can take more, I would love to give it a shot!

@ivory Omfg. Talk about market fit.

@ivory I loved Tweetbot, favourite by a mile.
This is very exciting!

@ivory happy to hear there’s so much interest! Very sorry I keep missing it 😢

@ivory miss it every time… they’re not animals they just need to get out more 😉

@ivory after tying in multiple rounds without luck, I will be happy when I can simply buy it in the AppStore. Until then I will happily wait here. 😆

@ivory aww man I missed it again

@ivory hooooooow 🙃😅 well, trying it again next time 😎💪

@ivory This is like trying to buy a PS5 or a 3080 in 2020.

(Though I got very lucky and secured a launch day PS5.)

@ivory lol. I’ll just wait for the official release. Whenever that is.

@ivory
At this point, you could even do the public release and people would love it, imho.

Just launch 😅

@ivory I seem to be a slug then :blob_pensive:

@ivory you’re welcome!

@ivory Let me know when you are ready to upgrade to Android :)

@ivory I give up. It's just too frustrating. 😕
