android users: yes, we know. we've been heads down on fixing android performance since the first reports and have multiple devs working on it as their highest priority. it's proving to be a particularly stubborn problem. we appreciate the patience and the quick feedback while we work through it.

a large batch of Farcaster Pro memberships expire tomorrow. we're taking our time to figure out what pro should look like from here. both the community and the team are in a different place than when pro launched, and we want to be very intentional about figuring out what the right mix of pro features is. the old pro features are still there if you feel those are integral to your fc experience and want to renew, but we don't expect everyone to. we have ideas we're excited about, including some highly requested features, but we're not rushing anything out. more to come! (fyi, as we roll out new things, like we've done with Spaces, users with pro will likely continue to be our first test group, but we'll be clear each time about what will be rolled out to everyone eventually.)

thanks to everyone who has been joining/hosting Spaces and giving feedback! the vibes have been immaculate and we have kept the devs busy. high priorities on the fix list: -chat input staying put and being easier to follow -variety of audio glitches (when joining/leaving, as a speaker) -silent mode on mobile not having audio -keeping audio alive when you background the space -like 45 more small things we've rolled this out to Farcaster Pro users to start. if you have Pro you can join, start, and schedule from the Spaces section in the left sidebar. rolling out to everyone in the near future! (android pro users, hang tight, it might not be rolled out to you yet because we are deep in a fix for android performance issues.) hear you later!

pls tag or dc me when you see spammers/scammers, on the feed, in the wallet, in direct casts. a lot of them are at least smart enough to not include our accounts, so we don't always see what you see. i can take care of them manually and also make sure the devs know so they can continue iterating to improve our systems. ⁽ᵃˡˢᵒ ⁿᵉʳᶠᶦⁿᵍ ᵇʳᶦⁿᵍˢ ᵐᵉ ʲᵒʸ ᵈᵒⁿ'ᵗ ʲᵘᵈᵍᵉ ᵐᵉ⁾

re: mobile app performance this is likely one of the most annoying issues we have looked at. expo 53 reached its official end of life when expo 55 was announced. farcaster apps were on 53 and needed the 55 upgrade, this was a known thing even from late last year. the upgrade had many breaking changes. one of those changes has introduced a memory leak that happens as you keep using the app longer. this results in various performance issues where the - app scrolling might lag - replies might have screen flashing up and down etc. our iOS update was blocked on Apple reviews for more than a week so we couldn't land a lot of the native build changes that would solve the root cause it should finally start going out shortly. it's unlikely it will fix everything but should should get to a spot where we can then solve over the next week, appreciate all the reports and bearing through the temporary bugginess major version upgrades are never fun and it's no surprise why companies wait as long as they can before making such changes
