Gregory's ServerTapbots was founded 15 years ago today! Okay, yesterday to be exact. But to celebrate this moment in our timeline, we are finally releasing some Tapbots and Ivory goods over on Cotton Bureau! So head on over, peruse the merchandise and buy (or don’t buy) something for yourself before they are gone. Either way, we wouldn’t be here today without all of your support, so thank you very much! 🙏

@Jackson The hats are a bit more complicated so we kept it simple for now. If a lot of people request it, we might consider it.

@ivory I’m not immediately seeing shipping information. Pointer to that info if I want to order a pin?
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@leebennett Shipping should show up after you get to the shipping page and put in your address. 
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@asier They should. These are the only countries they don't currently ship to: https://support.cottonbureau.com/article/119-do-you-ship-to-my-country

@ivory as soon as I arrive home I'll check it out, I'd love to have a good pin on my backpack 😉
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@asier Just an FYI, but the pins are very low in stock. We only had about 30 or so left from a run a few years ago and wanted to sell them cheap to get rid of them.

@ivory Thanks! Filling my wardrobe with more Tapbots swag can't hurt. Stickers is also new and exciting! It's been a hell of a ride – just went through my E-Mails and interestingly my first Tapbots product was Convertbot in March of 2010. Tweetbot followed two years later in Feb of 2012.

@ivory I love it all! I think I may snag some stickers! Thanks for making such awesome software 🥰

@ivory Will there be a Bluesky client/native support in Ivory in the future, or have you been justifiably burned by your previous experience with the whims of sinister corporations?
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@danofthewibble We don't have the bandwidth to worry about Bluesky at this time. We already have too much work ahead of us with Mastodon.
danofthewibble
@ivory I’ll continue using Skybridge to cludge Bluesky into Ivory for now then. A shame, but totally understandable.

@ivory Um, congrats. Can you make a megapack with one of everything in it? :OTFeature_ornm:

@benhodder They should. These are the only countries they don't ship to: https://support.cottonbureau.com/article/119-do-you-ship-to-my-country

@ivory failing to checkout after telling them I'd like to ship to the UK 😭 but, I hope you sell oodles! Happy anniversary! 🫶🏻
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@andypiper Very weird. They should ship to the UK. These are the only countries they don't ship to: https://support.cottonbureau.com/article/119-do-you-ship-to-my-country
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@andypiper If it doesn't work, let us know which product you are trying to check out with and we can send the info to Cottonbureau to investigate. Thanks!

@ivory working now - I guess it didn't appreciate my effort to use Google Pay the first time around. My Ivory love will be worn on my chest with pride!
Paul Stockton
@ivory Wow, we share a weird anniversary as 15 years ago yesterday I had a life changing upper arm break and nerve damage, resulting in the loss of use of my right hand - I have regained use of my hand but still feel the effects every day. I got my first iPhone 3G one week earlier and it was a godsend being able to use Facebook and chat with family & friends while in hospital.

@ivory I love these. I want to wear the Ivory logo, but unfortunately, the Mastodon logo (and the Ivory riff on it) is obscure enough to be easily misread as loyalty to a specific political party here in the US, so Boost logo it is!

@ivory vividly remember you being one of the first on the AppStore, because I got my bachelor degree on writing a paper on possibilities and chances of mobile apps back then and used one of your apps as an example. Maybe it was weightbot? Or some conversion app? Idk but it had all kinda cool animations which probably didn’t age well at all 😅.

@ivory Happy Birthday Tapbots. You did well over the years. you've been a timesaver and a pleasure to be used. I miss Tweetbot every day but love Ivory instead. Keep it up <3

@robotdeathsquad I have shirts I've been wearing for 12 years that still look great. 🤷♂️
Will Clark
@ivory so do I, but I have this shirt I bought like a year or so ago and it sucks. Way thinner and look at the printing (I happen to be wearing it).
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@robotdeathsquad Is that a on demand shirt? Those aren't as durable as the campaign shirts (which is what ours are right now). You have 2 weeks before they are gone and these are screen printed.
Will Clark
@ivory That's a helpful clarification. I don't know, tbh, I bought it when it was first launched on the site, but I think it was just made by a friendly Portlander and maybe not as a "campaign".
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@bigbluewolf It does. There's a country input box in the top right corner. It is not extremely obvious.
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@bigbluewolf Yea ApplePay seems to be buggy. Not sure who's side is having issues with it.

@ivory I’m seeing that the coloured shirts have logos with a black background. Does the logo on the black shirt still have a printed black background?
Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:
@pvanb We were told that they remove it on the black shirts. But even if they didn't, we think it would have a nice effect.      |
@ivory happy birthday Tapbots — making my life a bit more enjoyable every single day for the past 15 years 💜
