✨ We've just released p2panda version 0.5.0! ✨

The highlight is a completely new p2panda-net stack with local-first sync, confidential discovery, gossip, supervision and more.

We've been running these updates in the Reflection codebase for a couple of weeks now and are really happy with the stability and performance overall.

This year we're planning to make more frequent releases and communicate more clearly about what's on the roadmap.

Here's my new #macOS app. I hope you guys like #music!

*Listening Post* brings always-on music recognition to your Mac. Supports scrobbling to Last.fm and ListenBrainz, Apple Music, writing to local files, and automation. With a bit of #LocalFirst and #DigitalSovereignty baked in. (Still uses big tech for some features, because I'm not a sorcerer.)

PUBLIC BETA! Help me test this thing, please 😅
