I like doing taxes on Holy Saturday because I can't think of a more hellish activity

@Alby I'm kind of confused/annoyed about this pop up I'm getting to upgrade my self-hosted AlbyHub to "Pro". Isn't the point of self-hosting that you have access to your own data and aren't getting intermediated? I don't remember this being part of the deal. 😕

@daniele I just tried to send myself an image from the android build of Manent to the web app and got the following error:

Just released Flotilla 1.7.2, which fixes a few bugs, most notably errors when trying to join a space. If you had trouble before, please give it another go.

@greenart7c3 I'm running into some trouble with the most recent version of Amber (5.0.4). It looks like when signing in via nostrconnect the first few requests go through but then Amber resets the connection's relays to the user's defaults, essentially dropping the connection. Bunker URL sign in isn't even getting through the login stage, but I'm not sure why yet.

Flotilla is officially normie-friendly! I just released version 1.7.0 (and 1.7.1), which adds email/password login. This is a terrible UX, but it's also familiar, and doesn't require users to know anything about keys. It keeps key material safe by creating a FROST multisig quorum and spreading key shares across multiple independently run signer servers. So please! Share it with your non-cypherpunks and send them my way when things go wrong (or right, I won't argue). To sweeten the deal, we've also added voice rooms (thanks to @Matt Lorentz) powered by livekit for people making the exodus from Discord. Also included are UI fixes and performance improvements. Thanks to @Boka for some great suggestions, and to everyone else who reported bugs. Android image uploads should be working now, and Primal/Amber should be smoother as well.
