Exploring new social spaces

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

One thing I did not know about @getairchat ...

It has its own version of "banklinks" called stitching.

Basically you can ... stitch a chit into a chat ~ which over time creates an interconnected web of conversations.

Does twitter have its own version of this?

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

I love how @naval & team innovate with @getairchat:

* short audio clips (chits) linked together
* visible transcripts
* auto translation
* ai generated images
* end to end encrypted messaging

But ...

How long until its copied? Can it stay authentic at scale? Will users stick?

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

@GSUS19207360 its going very well indeed ;) the long haired pony is back as my pfp so we all know what that means. Hows you? I guess you didnt see my discord dm reply. Not a surprise ... im not on discord much either.

@DayanaBreathe @0xSigil @getairchat i just love how airchat as a tool enables creativity.

short chit + air art + transcription is great for poetry. I had not considered this.

reminds me of gaba podcast innovative audio poetry meditations.

@grin_io @getairchat @BrianNorgard is there a way to check recently published chits on the web ?

right now i have to :

1) go to a profile,
2) click a room,
3) sort by recent

would be great if there was a "latest public chits" view for those like me who can only lurk but not participate ?

@salilsethi waiting for openai plugin dev access :)

Here is an example of what I am talking about:

If airchat can retain this feeling & experience then it has a good shot at being around for many years to come.

[rochelle shen @neuro_morphic]

I feel more of a personal connection with the people Ive chatted with. Like if I met them in person I’d know they were my Airchat friend, whereas meeting Twitter people IRL takes me a bit longer to figure out

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

Most of these are either good housekeeping or provide short moments of joy & help users overcome install/registration friction.

But to stay active - it has to offer more than that.

I would stick for:

Strong community
Authentic conversations
Good discovery

You?

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

@neuro_morphic Is this because its still small with people that use it in authentic ways? Do you think it can retain that fealing as it grows?

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

@beffjezos @neuro_morphic @getairchat I cant wait to love it more. For now we have a long distance relationship where i lurk from the sideline on the web. Even thats good.

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

I love this Proof of Work test by the way @elonmusk

My account is "old" 2021 account, with little activity because I wasnt bought into twitter at the time. But i returned this week and glad to see I put enough work in. Will difficulty increase?

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

@geoframeai Yeah circulation very low with super high market cap 🤣 With no twitter presence pretty sure ill have to wait till public beta before I can try this out. The web access to some of the chits is useful - but only 5% of the total experience.

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

@geoframeai thx. ps any suggestion on how to get hold of airchat invite code ?

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

@dharmesh Exploring, discovery and hacking around undocumented code can be great and generate some good momentum in early days of a new platform (eg birclout).

The momentum needs to be maintained though and then requires docs, sdks and good examples. As well as community.

[Tijn @tijn_ch]

@altryne @dharmesh @getairchat @BrianNorgard @0xSigil right now ? long long time sadly.
apart from scraping some data from _next/data endpoints and trying to figure out the undocumented api. Been fun exploring though. Streaks in the app yet cause its in the code.
