This time I had to take a break from development for a couple of weeks but after Terrive saw a nudge I managed to make some updates last week and cleaned up the code 馃槂.
One of the most important things Terrive needed was an easier way to upload stuff. But with this release you can finally upload images and videos directly to IPFS. The files are automatically pinned using Infura but feel free ( recommended too ) to make a second pin.
Keep in mind that uploading is experimental, so expect a few bugs. If you find any bugs 馃悰 please leave a message in the chat room or as a comment below. 馃檪
Notifications : The notification panel has been updated and much better now. Just a little more commits and the notifications should be cool.
Readability : The font has been changed for the body of posts because it was hard to read long paragraphs with the previous font. Titles and usernames are unchanged.
To look good everywhere : Remember those horrible titles for Terrive Posts that showed up on HIVE. Now things are much better than before 馃槃. The first two words of your description is the your new title and the watermark just below the image is gone too !! If you want to see the post on Terrive all you have to do is to click on the image.
This week's development was based on this review of this review of Terrive @dibblers.dabs/A Spontaneous review of Terrive
Based on the poll taken by @appukuttan66 ( me ) to find the coolest domain name for Terrive , terrive.one came out on top and as promised the domain has been registered !!
See https://terrive.one ( main website ) and https://dev.terrive.one for the latest one ( coming soon, btw stuff might break in the dev site, so use it with caution )
Sorry if this took longer than usual , I was being stubborn that I would pay using cryptos, and it took me a little time getting used to the crypto side of the chain

Terrive has been listed on two Dapp Sharing platforms, Hiveprojects and StateOfTheDapps. I would like to expand this In the future so stay tuned for updates !!
I updated the About Page to make It look cooler and have a few nice animations and transitions. Also added the links to Newsletter and Dapp Sharing platforms.

The first thing that went through your mind would be discord. But personally I'm not a huge fan of discord , i mean ,Discord is really cool but why use a closed, centralized app when there are much better decentralized alternatives.
So Terrive's official Chat room is on matrix. It's a decentralized, end to end encrypted communication platform. Signup is really straight forward all you need is a username, password and confirm your password. Email is optional and can be added after signup. There are multiple clients ( like peakd, hiveblog, and ecency for hive ) but the best one would be element.io , here Is a full list of clients.

I would love if you could give me feedback about Terrive or write a review about it. Because I don't collect any data about Terrive's users I have no idea what people think about it or what they want. So if you have any questions or feedback please comment those out below, chat in the Matrix room or write a review about it on hive ( make sure to use the #terrive tag 馃榾 )
