We started with chat. Now we’re focused on a bigger problem: control over algorithmic feeds.

If you use the internet to learn or explore but feel pulled off-track by your FYP, we’re looking for alpha testers who want better feeds & fewer distractions.

Like this post & we’ll DM

[Austin Hallock @austinhallock]

I'm looking for some folks who want to test something new we're experimenting with for Truffle.

We're trying to build a better way to surface content you want to see, vs what the algorithm wants you to see.

Shoot me a DM if you're interested!

New to Truffle this week - a more traditional browser layout for folks who prefer it (horizontal tabs!)

[Austin Hallock @austinhallock]

Three new features to the Truffle browser :)

- Warning messages when DMs are visible while streaming
- Split-view, so you can have multiple sites showing in the same window
- The ability to pause streamer mode for certain trusted sites

[Truffle @TruffleVIP]

The browser has streamer mode, which will:
- Disable common data leaks like "Login with Google", local search results, etc...
- Hide your IP from untrusted websites
- Redact addresses, phone numbers, and emails from websites
- Disable autofill

It also has quality of life features like:
- A combined analytics page that pulls stats from all your channels
- Audio adjustment per-tab (0-400% volume)
- Windowed-fullscreen videos
- Auto-picture-in-picture

And coming soon:
- Split-screen
- Better chat integration
- The features you suggest!

[Truffle @TruffleVIP]

Streaming is stressful enough - why add to it by using a browser that wasn't built with streamers in mind?

That's why we built the Truffle browser - to keep you safer while you stream 😎

Help us shape the future by alpha testing and sharing feedback!

[Truffle @TruffleVIP]

Has a website you visited ever leaked your personal info while streaming?

We know "Login with Google" is a big one - what are some others?

We're making sure the Truffle browser prevents those leaks, so let us know as many as you can!

@xCorvy just yt + twitch - what stats would be most useful from tiktok?

[Truffle @TruffleVIP]

We're looking for alpha testers for a new browser built for streamers!

It’s packed with privacy features to prevent websites accidentally doxxing you; multistream chat; and a dashboard for all your channels' stats.

Drop a like, and we’ll reach out via dm!

[Truffle @TruffleVIP]

this tweet was way more popular than we thought it'd be 👀

we're slowly working our way to reaching out to everyone who expressed interest - but it may take a bit

[Austin Hallock @austinhallock]

last week for truffle i built @NathanStanz's smart idea to have a combined dashboard for all your youtube and twitch channels' stats

no more switching between youtube accounts to see how different videos are performing

will publish it this week so folks can start trying it out
