Very excited about it. So my questions:

  • How long we will have to wait after the first look to be able to install the new version ?

  • Is the new sync solution will be deployed in the same time ?

Thanks !

Thank you for that great meeting. Good to see your excitement about the product, it’s very contagious and I can’t wait to get my hands on the beta. Good luck the coming months, going public and opensource is a very exciting time!

Hey!

Thank you x1000 to every one of you who came with questions, ideas, early feedback, and a curious mind today. There’s really no better boost in motivation than your support, and we can’t wait for you to start playing with the next release.

Please stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks as we progress with testing the new Anysync infra, account migration, and spaces.

Sending lots of hugs from the Anyteam! :sunflower:

Just checked out the recording and I love how much it was shared about the AnyType’s vision, I really resonate with these ideas. I can’t help but feel like we could use our tech better than we do now and the topics addressed in this Town-hall I think are an excellent starting point to push for a new digital world. I hope to be helping realize this kind of vision soon but in the meantime I’ll get back to reality and wish the team to find that balance between current reality and abstract ideas.

Can’t wait to try the new version!

I may miss this part, but could someone tells me when the beta will be released?

First, testing with the Nightly Types starts in the coming days. Then, if everything goes well, the next release is estimated to be released in the 3rd week of May.
But keep in mind, this is subject to change. Let’s just hope for the best!

Collections, widgets etc. will be in the next release in May, but that is not the beta release. The beta release will be after that, in June.

You’re right @isle9. I mixed up the names and was referring to the next release. But as you said, beta release is after that. :sweat_smile:
