What’s coming with the new Tweeten

Today, we released the first ever build of the next, major Tweeten release to our 20 pre-alpha users. Tweeten 2.0 includes lots of things. I’m not lying.

Here’s a list:

• Completely re-written from the groundup which means: it’s faster, lighter, more stable, more secure, and of course: prettier.
• A brand new welcome experience
• A completely revamped Settings experience
• You can now automatically pause GIFs in columns
• Seamless, one-click auto updates (not enabled on pre-alpha)
• We’ve implemented a new hot-fixing system that will allow us to remotely release quick CSS-related fixes for Tweeten (not enabled on pre-alpha)
• You can now get notifications for your notification columns when Tweeten is opened in the background
• Ability to mute certain words or phrases, and apps/services
• Custom CSS! (for developers)
• Ability to disable tweet stream and hide sensitive data on columns
• You can now show verified badges for users on columns
• Thinner scrollbars
• Blur details of message sender in DM column
• Hide conversation idicators
• Hide actual messages in the DM column
• Bitly link shortening built-in
• Ability to enable hardware accleration
• Loads of other minor improvements

We will try our best to get this out for everyone asap. So stay tuned for more.
