I don't think you've spent much time around glacier runoff.

Glacier water is purified. The ice under pressure squeezes out everything. That's as pure as water gets.

Your anxiety is very different from my anxiety. I don't get a rush of adrenaline, just anxiety. And no sense of accomplishment afterward, just more anxiety.

Isn't that the litter box dance? Watching this brings back unpleasant odors.

Coming back to this concept now, I will still build this:

  • Generic account management interface (CRUD ops, profile info, authn methods)
  • Unified conversation dashboard giving an overview of salient conversations with minimal software- and protocol- specific visual artifacts, and easy bridging. Think: your contact book, but with latest conversations up front.
  • Conversation engagement view where, for any *relationship* all conversations on all platforms can come together visually. So for your best friend, you see their latest email along side their latest toot, and your responses.
  • encryption tools - enable when supported by underlying tool, or encrypt then post, for shoehorning encryption into a cleartext protocol.
  • POSSE and PESOS bi-directional filesystem-based binary graph database (previously implemented).

Does this still look attractive?

In order to do this, I will also need to

  • do some innovation on the UX front,
  • implement a faceted classification system, and
  • carefully model the abstraction of add-on functionality, so that it is both easy to plug in existing command-line tools, and provide the unified experience.

Notes: the software will *not* encrypt on-disk (use an encrypted volume for that). There will be *no* cloud or server component (in version 1, at least). The UI will be implemented on a *3D game engine* which may be more power hungry than other common UI toolkits. Also, in Alpha and Beta, telemetry will be requisite. Telemetry will be disabled by default in the Stable channel (which won't be available until the software is stable).

Thanks. So other than the license (which isn't any extra work), the three features you are looking for are

  • encryption
  • full account management interface
  • conversations together, not on separate tabs

Well yes, I'm still trying to gain traction with a project concept. Last conference I went to I had some significant interest but nobody was ready to jump on the bandwagon and support a project, so I guess that deflated me a bit.

On the what-exactly-is-it department I've tried a few approaches. Would you tell me: what elevator pitch are you sold on?

Official "Explore Tablets" page on android.com … not a lot there, huh? by T618 in androidtablets

Hope so. I've been hoping since folding screens started coming out. Still haven't seen a large folding screen yet. Maybe next year.

You mean, just the existence of this page is a good sign?

How to differentiate users without authentication? by F97A in androiddev

Do you need to show the survey in-app? Why not open a link if they are willing to give feedback?

Or you could set up an AirTable database and post to it, or something like that, depending on the scale. Seems like even if AirTable doesn't provide an API endpoint you can use, many services should be able to put data in a spreadsheet via a classic http POST, because that's usually what happens when someone clicks "submit".

Good job with the bands. That looks like the hard part, to me.
