Spark 0.11.1 is out now! 🔐 Auth no longer expires after two weeks! You will have to login again after update but shouldn't have to for a very, very long time. 👾 We also fixed a video upload bug and made some preparations for scoped auth, coming soon. Much more exciting updates coming real soon!

Spark just passed 1 thousand monthly active users! 🥳🎊 We have a ton of exciting updates coming down the pipe soon, and we're continuing to double down on open source and open social. Stay tuned!

In an hour and a half, at 4:30 PT and 7:30 ET, I'll be giving my talk, "Wherever You Get Your Podcasts: Interoperability in the Atmosphere", in the Main Hall at #ATmosphereConf. Please tune in on @stream.place then if you're interested: stream.place/stream1.atmosphereconf.org

Panel discussing the Creator economy with @joebasser.com from @sprk.so on the mic #ATmosphereConf

0.9.0 is out to testers ahead of a big announcement at #ATmosphereConf! 👀

We are in the process of taking down thousands of bots on our PDS. This effort is largely automated but all takedowns are reversible. We support the ability for people, including those in Gaza, to raise money, and we encourage any legitimate accounts wrongfully taken down to use the appeals process.

Rounding out Friday, we have a @sprk.so theme for #AtmosphereConf website, by @knotbin.com

0.8.0 is out now with a completely redone story posting experience, along with multiple improvements to search, DMs, and a lot of bug fixes. Try it out! Download the beta at sprk.so/downloads

0.7.0 is out now! 🔔 Notifications are here! You can now see who interacts with your posts and comments and get notified when they do. ❤️ A private likes tab on your profile shows you all the posts you've liked. 🥄 On the home screen, your active feed is now persistent across sessions.

You love to see it... more of this, please. For folks abandoning TikTok after its US takeover, consider using something like @skylight.social or @sprk.so or similar systems that give you a similar feeling but on an open protocol underneath so you'll never have to "move" again.

Spark 0.6.0 is out now with one of our most requested features: OAuth, for both sign-in and sign-up! We also added a new UI for photo carousels and the app is over 30x faster on first loads and profile loads. Go try it out and let us know what you think!

Spark is now in open beta. Download here: iOS: testflight.apple.com/join/uYpnjh37 Android: play.google.com/store/apps/d...

#atproto devs: if you're interested in making or playing around with spark feeds, dm me for access to spark. i'd also love feedback on the template.

OH WE COOKIN’

We're not slowing down, 0.4.0 is out now! 📺 Custom feeds - Use feeds made by anyone! Currently supports feeds made for Spark, will roll out for Bluesky video feeds soon. 💿 Sounds - Reuse sounds from other Spark videos right from the Spark in-app video editor! Coming to the video recorder soon.

The new @sprk.so TestFlight release is soo much nicer than the one before 👀 there's also an entire photo and video editor built straight into the post process 🔥

Alright party people, 0.3.0 is finally out! The app's gone through a full makeover, we have a new photo and video editor, and we've changed our lexicon (with a way to convert legacy posts in settings)! This sets the stage for two big features we are currently finishing: sounds/music and feeds.

rate limits and captchas are running so no more invite codes on pds.sprk.so anymore :)

I'm sorry you're having that issue but we are not associated with the New Zealand cell service company. We are a social media startup and do not provide phone plans.

NEVER! *grabs stick and runs away*

@sprk.so 🎵🔎📖🔜

the protocol we deserve

@knotbin.com sharing about @sprk.so and how they are building with and extending bluesky video features and data

So excited to be speaking on behalf of @sprk.so at this! Can't wait to see everyone in one centralized place. 😁

New account signups on the Spark PDS have been shut off as we investigate a surge of inauthentic accounts.

@sprk.so's new branding is pretty banger

We have news! Anyone can now sign up for our waitlist at sprk.so! We are committed to getting Spark in your hands as soon as possible, but to launch while sacrificing quality would be a disservice to everyone who's supported us.

One more time, for old time's sake
