Hey uhh, while all of yall are here: If you like smelling good and want to better understand your own tastes with fragrances/perfumes I would appreciate you taking the time to tell me why my app sucks #AtmosphereConf - alpha.drydown.social / @drydown.social

At some point in the medium to long term future, I'd love to run contests where I send out unlabeled decants and whoever logs the scent notes accurately first (or something) wins a retail bottle. Feels like that would be fun.

behind the scenes I've been writing some internal docs and plans for @drydown.social which is why publicly less has been done*. More is coming for the alpha as the beta is a long ways out, but things are happening. * and it has nothing to do with buying Pokopia. Nope. Not at all related.

Added support for @drydown.social profiles, @aetheros.computer IDs & @atvouch.dev data via Philpax's graph viewer (link shown if you have made 1+ vouch). Going to be looking into supporting standard site publications better in the near future.

If you want to be on social media free from “AI”, try @drydown.social. AI can’t join due to being nostrily-challenged.

Jake’s House by Henry Rose on @drydown.social ★★★★☆ Clean skin scent, slightly sweet but not overpowering. Drydown is musky but still light and wearable in a warm day. #scentsky #fragrancesky #perfumesky alpha.drydown.social/profile/did:...

small update: all drydown dot social links will now redirect to alpha.drydown.social. this is the initial very messy version of drydown and soon (as in a couple weeks) I'll *start* working on a version that is: faster, more stable, more accessible, better designed.

decants for Gris Charnel, and then three from Tauer just arrived 👀 (Rose De Kandahar, Desert Marocain, and Maghreb)

if/when Drydown supports recording scent notes would it be better for you to add *any* scent notes to your review or would it be better to confirm/deny smelling the notes the producer claimed was apparent?

you *may* need to sign out and in again, but you can now update your preferences in @drydown.social. This lets you impact the final score in your reviews based on what you value and what you don't. You can even use that to change how *other* reviews display just for you. drydown.social/preferences

You can now migrate your fragrance records to a different house. Think of it as: “this account is a better steward for this brand’s data, let me connect my stuff there instead.” Migrating reviews to a new fragrance will come later as well. drydown.social #fragrancesky #perfumesky​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

One of the things I am *most* excited for with @drydown.social is that: 1. the list of houses and fragrances in the autocomplete is populated by my bluesky social graph 2. I can attach my review of a fragrance to someone else's data. 3. it impacts their data here: drydown.social/profile/did:...

hell yeah, @drydown.social now uses a more strict scope to read and write your data. I probably should have did this sooner 😅.

New features/updates: 1. more info in profiles 2. an explore feed 3. pages for houses with their own stats 4. edit houses 5. delete reviews 6. sort reviews by recent or score
