Now that I can create personal mobile apps, the issue is that I'm locked in the Apple infra which makes it much harder to run your own apps. Android is far easier.

Any advice? A Testflight account? A real dev account and just submit and hope the app gets approved?

As global/uncurated feeds are becoming full of AI slop, I choose to scale down and interact only with my WoT, my family being the first one.

I'm gonna write a little social network + chat server and client for my family, invite-only. And I think Nostr is an overkill for it, I don't need its advantages. Run the server on a cheap VPS, pair client with server and off you go.

But I'm tired of this and that app being blocked in different countries, p2p messengers failing all the time. Not sustainable for my mom. A simple Twitter-like timeline + group chat is all we need as a family.

I'll open-source it, too, maybe someone else will need it.

I wonder how that 3D-printed gun revolution going on in the US and elsewhere. Haven’t heard much since the hype died down.
