1/5 For the last two years Iβve been working on Plinky, sharing my work publicly while the app has been in beta.
Today itβs finally ready to go live in the App Store, and Iβd like to not only share the app with you but share more about why I built it.

What is Plinky?
I'm just a simple app developer who wants to be friends with all the nice people who make all my favorite apps, is that too much to ask for?
One year ago today I left Twitter to pursue my dream of being an indie dev, and Iβm really doing it.
It hasnβt been linear, I built Boutique and Bodega, have done a lot of writing, launched the Plinky beta, but it still felt a bit like I was playing indie since I hadnβt shipped yet. People using and paying for Short Circuit over the last few days has changed that.
Itβs not about the money, itβs been proving to me that I can really achieve a dream Iβve had for over a decade. Thank you all. ππΌ
So let me get this straight. The current state of fediverse integration on Threads is that you can write posts that federate, people can read and reply to them, you can like their replies, but you can't reply back, repost, or even share the post from Threads. And that's how they're gonna leave it.
