God the default @shopify/flash-list refresh controller feels so buggy. Does anyone know if there are drop-in replacements I can use because that’s not really something I wanna figure out myself

I think bluesky is fetching posts before displaying anything, whereas graysky shows skeletons as soon as it has the list. This has the advantage of only fetching posts that are visible due to the fact that the list is virtualised (although it makes the page a bit jumpy)

Oh and I suppose that since posts are cached individually, you don’t have to refetch every post every time. In that case where you have one new notification in a list of 50, bsky will make 51 requests whereas gsky will make… 2

Isn’t it just absolutely bananas that you can just inject arbitrary JavaScript into webviews. I wish apple added a privacy feature to disable this because it’s so ripe for abuse

Does anyone know if I need to worry about the App Store encryption compliance stuff? Hopefully not if I’m just using the atproto API but obviously there’s encryption happening somewhere

We’re hiring Go and Typescript devs btw. Things are crazy over here, apply if you want to: - write a lot of code - ship fast - juggle protocol and product - be an agentic player on a small tight-knit team - create this thing with us

(for context, I just started a new job that I really like, so I’m adverse to jumping ship again so soon)
