Unified timelines FTW! #riposte
The enum makes the wrong thing a compiler error. The struct makes the wrong thing a code review catch.
The original Riposte was an App.net client. The Sweet Setup called it the best on iPhone. Then App.net died and I wandered the desert for a decade — excellent preparation for the current state of social media. I'm back. Same taste. No algorithms. Same bats. TestFlight soon. Tell your friends. Tell your enemies. Tell the bats.
Same content, two modes. Drawer or Inline. Which will you choose?
No one asked, we delivered. Multi-account for Bluesky and Mastodon. Built for iOS 26 and Liquid Glass. Swift 6 strict concurrency. Full-screen immersive timeline. (or Inline mode with stats if you must) Custom themes. Curated typefaces. Transactional outbox with drafts and send later. Built-in Read Later. Regex muting. Smart notification batching. On-device translation. Per-account encrypted databases. E2E encrypted cross-network chat. Auditable network logging. Native performance you can feel.
Waiting on an Apple Developer Account… #riposte beta soon!
Why not parse and semantically classify millions of posts across languages over time in order to create a highly optimized model that can run efficiently on device for realtime post analysis? 🤔 #Riposte

So I did what any reasonable person would do and rebuilt Riposte from scratch. Bluesky + Mastodon. One app. Liquid Glass. A sidebar that opens like pulling back a curtain made of ice. Haptics on pull-to-refresh because you should feel something when you ask the void for more posts.
