Shacknews Dev Update

New Shacknews Cortex logo.
We might have actually shipped a minor update tonight. Maybe.

We have a tiny update for Shacknews Cortex tonight:

  • Updating the favicon to have a black background (not sure when it will ship exactly)

Things we are working on:

  • Brand new unannounced project
    • After assessing the state of Cortex and Shackpets, we had determined that there is a better use of our time between now and the end of the year.
    • We are still going to be working on Cortex Shouts updates, but Shackpets updates are going to be pushed back.
    • We have learned quite a bit from the rollouts of Cortex, Shackpets, and Shouts.
  • Cleaning up how the embed code is displayed when you click the embed button on Cortex Shouts.
  • Shackpets
    • We may have found a way to work on Shackpets and the new project at the same time
    • Working on improved onboarding, including a tutorial for new users
    • Working on a solution to better help users who have had posts rejected by AI moderation
    • Working on an update to adhere to Google Play's upcoming changes.
