After these important infrastructure improvements, our next big challenge is communities (next 4-6 weeks). Anyone is able to run one, and discoverability will be first-class in the app and webapp. Instead of managing relays, Blossom servers, and tweaking a bunch of technical knobs, no: those are prepackaged in a community spec. We are going to push the permissionlessness hard. Stay tuned, it's going to be awesome.

Re: app updates. On the indexer side, we deployed a demand-driven schedule meaning that your requested updates trigger a check - instead of being cadence driven (e.g. every day). This means more efficient and faster updates across the board! The indexer also now does takeovers, so if a developer stops publishing for whatever reason, the indexer acts as a safety net so you don't miss updates! If the developer had cryptographically linked their APK certificate, then we can keep publishing on their behalf.

Attention developers. We're relentlessly lowering the bar for publishing. If your npub is rejected (usually happens with new npubs) you no longer need to ask for whitelisting. Simply add a 'pubkey' YAML property in your zapstore.yaml config file (must be at root of your repository, pushed) with your npub. That's it! (Malicious apps will swiftly get removed and the entire user from the forge, permanently blacklisted.)

✨ New feature (in alpha!) Something that many asked for a long time. You can now suggest apps to the Zapstore indexer. Simply search for the full repository URL like https://github.com/user/repo If you get no results back, it will be queued for indexing in the background, and if it has valid APK in its releases, it should shortly be available. Github only for now. Try it out!

Aurora Store release repository (auroraoss.com) has blocked Zapstore indexer IP, so no updates from them. Github being more open than a FOSS project, who would've guessed.
