Yo zapstriches!
Small update coming next week, hopefully.
Otherwise, *very* busy on a few different low-level building blocks that are dynamite. Can't wait to share with y'all.
Once ready (likely 4-6 more weeks) I will finally be able to start shipping a significant amount of user-facing features that have been in the pipeline.

Heads up zapstriches!
Not releasing much lately. Hard work happening under the surface:
- Working on UI/UX and data loading with @Niel Liesmons
- Working on all-new relays with @Alex Gleason
That is laying the groundwork for a LOT of cool social features, and access to massive amount of apps.
And my most important interop priority: ability to manage relays, Blossom servers and DVMs.
About automatic silent app updates:
Which OSS app store has them? In theory I see Obtainium and Accrescent do.
However with Obtainium I've always been prompted to Update. Sure, updates were downloaded in the background but user action was required.
Can't speak for Accrescent as I have not used it.
Also, in several code tests I could not make it work despite having the right permissions (UPDATE_PACKAGES_WITHOUT_USER_ACTION) and being Android 12+.
I would appreciate feedback on this issue as I'm not even sure it's possible.
