Hey
Sorry to bother you after while you are probably unboxing your Black Friday/CyberMonday purchases. It’s just us: the Berty team.
We hope you’re good. A lot of things are moving forward here. We’re making good progress on the application. The push notifications are there, which makes the app usable on a daily basis. As we say in French “ça sent bon” (=it smells great!). We hope that the next few weeks will be as productive as the last few, allowing us to bring Berty to life in early 2022.
Let’s get back to work and let you read this digest!
Cheers internet buddies!
📱 App progress recap
Here’s what we’ve been up to over the past few weeks:

- Fixing gomobile-ipfs release system by replacing Bintray by another platform
