Sean HeberTapestry 1.4 now in the App Store if you were waiting for the nice new in-app conversation thread support.

Of course other clients have done this sort of thing since forever, but Tapestry isn't really a typical "client" app because it's not targeting a single service.
Not too many apps let you put RSS, Bluesky, Mastodon, Tumblr, Micro.blog, Reddit (and more) posts all in the same chronological timeline let alone support some of the underlying service's native actions like fav, boost, bookmarking, etc.
Tapestry is also extensible - you can even write your own connectors for different services.
Unfortunately despite all this power, Tapestry has waaaay fewer subscribers than Twitterrific had. Would be quite helpful if there were (a lot) more! 🙂
Guy Sedai@bigzaphod Sorry if I’m missing something obvious here, but I just updated and can’t seem to see threads still. I was expecting to see you 2 previous posts when I clicked into this one in the app. I’m on Dev Beta 4 of 26.1 so that may be causing the issue too…
~@guysedai @bigzaphod from the main feed view, is there a button on the right side?
@modulusshift @bigzaphod There wasn’t when I originally posted, but now there is and it’s working as expected!
@bigzaphod Update: I tried again 3 min later and it’s working now! I didn’t change anything on my end so not sure what happened. But thank you for adding this! This was the last feature that was keeping me on Reeder, officially switching to Tapestry full time 🙂.
@guysedai due to how tapestry works, some features like this require the timeline items to first be refreshed so the items can update and get the new behavior or info they need. So if my post was fist downloaded by the prior version of the app but not yet refreshed by 1.4 that could have been why. In those minutes it probably refreshed the timeline and so it started working for those now upgraded timeline items. This is strangely hard to explain without getting super technical. 😛
@bigzaphod Understood, and I appreciate the explanation!
@bigzaphod I’m using it every day! (Of course I’m a Kickstarter backer so not exactly a revenue source lol)
Larry Anderson 🕊️@bigzaphod I'm subscribed. I'd probably use it more if I could reply within the app.
@larand I hope to solve that at some point too because I desperately want it. Baby steps.
Monte Freeman@larand @bigzaphod Not being able to reply without needing to switch to another app, is definitely a show stopper for me.
I get confused where I am in a message thread and end up missing messages.
Definitely looking forward to this being a feature soon though. 😁
Archagon@bigzaphod Unsolicited feedback: I keep meaning to switch from Openvibe to Tapestry since timeline syncing is pretty killer, but there are a few QoL features keeping me stuck. Most recently, I found myself missing thread indicators (multiple replies to self, which show up as independent posts in Tapestry instead of a single, collapsible stream) as well as image previews for some subset of links (possibly quote posts). It's a pretty fantastic piece of software, but doesn't quite work for me yet…
Jesper Kamstrup Linnet@bigzaphod That's it, I cannot resist any longer, must subscribe 💸
Brent York@bigzaphod just signed up this week fwiw cc @gedeonm Loving it!
@brentyork @gedeonm awesome thanks!
Kyle Bashour@bigzaphod I would love to use it but the design is just too polarizing for me :/
@kylebshr what about the design? A number of folks say this so you’re not alone, but it’s hard to pin down exactly why because it doesn’t really look much different from most timeline-style apps imo.

@bigzaphod @kylebshr my guess would be the coloured theme. Have you considered a “colourless” build?
@bigzaphod quick notes would be:
- would like full bleed UI, the inset “cards” feel like a waste of space
- too much color for me; don’t want the big stripe on the left, just want white/black background (light/dark mode)
- plain circles for avatars
- system font (I know I can fix this one)
Sadly, a lot of the things that give the app personality. But when reading content, that’s not really what I want from an app.
@bigzaphod also, not being able to reply is a big bummer
@kylebshr I really want that one - hoping we get there. The app was originally conceived as a reader, really, but slowly that’s changing. 😛
@kylebshr hmm yeah. All that would remove a lot of the “style”. Good list though - most people are super vague when they say things like this. 🙂
jasonclarke@bigzaphod Great update!!!
wakest likes your bugs ⁂@bigzaphod sadly can't even install it on anything. my macbook only updates to 13.6.4, and my only iPhone is a 8... Android and or Linux Tapestry would be great to see
Peter Gracar@bigzaphod Really love how on Mac, opening a post opens it in a new window. Any way of doing that on iPad?
@PeterGracar not currently but it might be technically possible - never tried it. (Although not everyone runs iPad in the new windowing mode, either, and we have to support older iPadOS too which doesn't even have the option so lots of potential complication to the idea.)
