Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄🎁

Here’s another 1000 TestFlight access slots for Ivory.

1. This is an early alpha. Many things are missing and consider everything a work in progress.
2. Send us feedback via the contact us 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 yess, finally made it into the Ivory alpha! 😎 Looking forward to testing it out thoroughly, before making it my default #fediverse client 😉

Jeff Sikes

@ivory What a great Christmas Gift! Thank you. 🎄🎉

Sam

@ivory I can hardly believe it, but I finally got in! Thanks for opening up more slots!

Thomas

@ivory I made it. First thing I noticed is a max toot of 500 Chars where my server allows 5000

Daphne

@ivory Woohoo! Success this time! Boy did I run up those steps quickly...

Tobsen

@ivory Thank you! Frohe Weihnachten! 🎄🎁

Stan Fletcher

multigreg

@ivory I made it in, after missing out by just seconds last time! Lovely unexpected Christmas present

Richard Brockie

@ivory thanks - I lucked out and got in this time!

Don :ivory_elephant:

@ivory I was lucky enough to get into the alpha access, however, I am unable to sign in. After I authorize my accounting, I get the requesting token notification, and then an unauthorized pop up. Has anyone else has this issue? Is it my instance?

Jason Perlow 🇮🇱

@ivory crap I missed it. No joy for a tech journo?

Roberto

@ivory thank you! Had iPhone charging in room when got the notification on Apple Watch. Nice after lunch sprint up the stairs.

April King

@ivory @wongmjane seven minute in and it was already full. 😅

Mario

@ivory What a wonderful gift! Thank you and Merry Christmas!!! Blessings!!!

Wes Souza

@ivory nope. This is getting to a point I don’t even wanna use it when I actually can.

Jesse Saenz

@ivory 10 minutes and full; I need to add a special notification sound whenever you post! 😂

heshsum

@ivory Holy crap - it’s been like 10 minutes and all the slots are full - respect!

Jason Resnick

Nice! Got in. @ivory does this automatically update?

Jack Humphrey

@ivory Woo hoo! I got in. Thanks for letting us try it out early.

Tobias

@ivory No way. Saw notification, clicked. again full. This is crazy, I thought this time I could have been lucky 😄

Dave Murdock

@ivory 13m and full. Gonna be a lot of downloads when this releases

Dennis

@ivory That’s awesome. I unfortunately opened Mastodon a few minutes too late. One of these days…

Yaron

@ivory I can’t login using 2-steps verification…got session timeout error msg.

Philip

@ivory Got in this time, this is the best holiday present this year!

Bodo Menke

@ivory And full again. I am always too late. 🥹

Cutterpillow

@ivory I got in! Best Christmas present so far! 🎄🎁

JJ Krawczyk

@ivory Yay I got in. Will do my best to report issues in a comprehensive manner (I’ve been on the receiving end)

Mark Bober

@ivory Damn it I was busy playing with my kids on Christmas! 😭

Bob Gilmore

Thank you for the Christmas present @ivory , now take the day off!!!!

Stefan です

@ivory Merry Christmas! 🎄 Somehow didn't get a notification, so once again I'm late. 😅

Steve Bennett

@ivory All gone in 23 minutes, wild how popular it is but good work! 🥳

Frank Adler

@ivory yay, finally got a seat in the TestFlight. And I have to say, I like it so far. Feels very smooth. Only annoyance so far: a lot of „Invalid Token“ growls, while communication with the instance works fine.

rabbitt

@ivory Just my timeline right now, not Local or Federated, right? (Didn’t see in release notes)

Also - OMG YES ALL THE YES SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY IT WORKS LIKE TWEETBOT SO HAPPY

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@rabbitt for now local and federated are in the search tab. Will give them permanent spots in the future.

Chris McCulloh, MD ♿️(he/him)

@ivory @rabbitt excellent. So far this is my biggest wish - I love the UX, just want local and federated to have the same prominence as Home TL and be super easy to access. They add so much to the Mastodon experience and they should have the same importance as they Home feed.

@ivory YEAH!!!! 🤩
This time I was lucky 🍀 enough to get an invite.
Nice Christmas gift. Thank you so much 😊.

DELETED

@ivory I’m so used to the default webapp of Mastodon that I feel lost trying ivory 🤪 but anyway the app seems nice and promising! 👍

RayJW

@ivory no luck for the third time in a row :‘( It‘s okay, I‘ll get it eventually. Even if it‘s on launch day :)

Scot Close

@ivory I see lots of happy replies using Tusky on my Android phone but none in Ivory on my iPad. 🤷‍♂️
Is that one of the things that isn't implemented yet? Is there a list somewhere of what is and isn't supposed to be working?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@scotclose it sure what you mean? Notifications? You need to turn those on in the settings of ivory.

Scot Close

@ivory When I see a post in my timeline I don't see any indication that it is a reply to another post or if there are any replies to the post. I'm using an iPad Air 2 with iOS 15.7.1.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@scotclose there’s a conversation icon next to the time stamp.

Scot Close

@ivory
I don’t see it. Also, you can see in the post below yours the name of an emoji that didn’t render.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@scotclose if you don’t see it, then that post is not a reply.

We haven’t built support for custom server emojis yet.

Christopher :schulte:

@ivory @scotclose

Replies aren’t showing for me either. I’ve enabled them in the app (both app preferences and iOS system permissions) and don’t see any yet.

Even for some that should have (and my other mastodon clients are alerting).

Scot Close

@ivory I don’t see a way to view replies to that post. I know there are some because I see them in oa different client.

Dave Olsen

@ivory Can I please test Ivory? Tweetbot was my absolute favourite Twitter client before the migration. I’d love to see what you can do with Mastodon. Pretty please? #ItIsChristmas #NotAboveBegging

Bram Schulting

@ivory whoop whoop! I got in 🙌 I get an error when logging in, but I’ll try again a bit later.

🌊 Gary Goosey 🇺🇸 🇺🇦🗽🌊 🧵

@ivory Thank you for the invite. 1st impression already 👍. Ivory by Tapbots looking good. It is a good day to show how the “about me” page looks. See attached pic below.

I am so glad so many Tech companies are getting on the bandwagon promoting #Mastodon & the #FediVerse

@ivory Can you open a few more please :( I promise I will not leave the computer anymore.

wennefer

@ivory Wow! Got into the alpha this time! For an alpha ivory is quite amazing (building on top Tweetbot obviously has an advantage ☺️). A question: is it possible to see notifications at this point in the alpha, or just mentions?

Scot Close

@ivory This reminds me of trying to register for Google IO back in the day. 😁

Kaveh

@ivory even for an early alpha, this is still really really good
