Hi friends,
It's been a while since I've sent one of these bulletins out, looking back over this very long list of changes it feels like I built a whole other app in that time.
But there's a flip side of this all progress, there are tons of people who would really enjoy using Kinopio to solve problems and sort out their thoughts – but they've never even heard of it because I've mostly been coding.
To help with that, I've brought on Ola part-time to grow awareness. If you see her in the Discord (as @kohola) do be sure to say hi!
