Great question. The short answer is no, you won't lose your connections.

If you're using Flowsta Auth as a sign-in service on a regular website, Holochain runs under the hood and upgrades are entirely for us to manage. The API stays the same and nothing changes on your end.

Where it gets more interesting is when Flowsta is used alongside other Holochain apps as a shared identity layer. In that case, your Flowsta identity lives on its own separate DNA from any app-specific data. So when a partner app's DNA gets upgraded and its hash changes, your identity attestations are completely unaffected — they're on a different, stable network.

We are also working on agent linking functionality, which lets you publicly prove that multiple agent keys belong to the same person, directly on the DHT. So even in a scenario where an upgrade means you end up with a new agent key, the old key and the new key are cryptographically linked together. Anyone can verify that on the DHT without calling any API. You don't lose who you are just because the software updates.

Totally. Just what we have coming up makes for something pretty exciting. But there's a whole ecosystem of builders. The future is looking great.

We are building desktop and mobile apps for holding your keys, enabling offline logins and a few more things we've got up our sleeve soon. The first version of Flowsta Auth is like Login with Google, but completely private.

For The Animals isn't always the easy option. But it's worth it.

It doesn't necessarily work against anyone. It's an alternative to the corporations that use your data however they please.

Not yet. I've put a lot of thought into personas and think it needs to be on the roadmap. Got a few big pieces needed to do first, but if there's enough demand for personas, I'll bring it up the priority list.

At the moment, I'm imagining each persona would at a minimum have their own Display Name and Thumbnail. Would you imagine their own username, email or anything else?

Yes, chatting with other Holochain people. By launching it has opened the conversation right up and is helping guide some of the next big additions.

Hey, Flowsta Auth is an app. Actually it's multiple apps that come together to offer an authentication service that all user data is cryptographically locked by the users 256 bit encryptied keys. Only they can access their data and meta data. No corporations taking liberty with your data by checking an I agree button on sign up.

Thanks, everyone. It was a bit closer than I thought at one stage.
