@jackhanford nice job! But it seems like copy and pasting doesn't work when creating a new tweet?
Jack Hanford
@chrismessina Bizarre! I pushed out an update ~6 hours ago that should have fixed that .. it seems to working fine for me http://d.pr/v/QQhUAG πŸ€”
Jack Hanford
@chrismessina There is also clipboard controls in the top system bar http://d.pr/i/SMxb8

@jackhanford ok, updated and it seems to work, thanks! Is autoupdating supported? And... the icon is really too large IMO. Any chance you could size it to fit in the conventional app icon format?
Jack Hanford
@chrismessina autoupdating isn't currently supported. I actually started writing code for Chirp ~24 hours ago, so it's still very new :p
Fraser Smith
Looks nice. But, does it really need to use Google Analytics as well?
Jack Hanford
@frassmith The only tracking is just for me to see how many people are potentially using this thing. It's all entirely anonymous, and only first once during the boot

@jackhanford Just wanted to say that I've been using Chirp for about half an hour and I'm chuffed to bits! :-D So, so smooth and mui-mui pretty...

Can we add multiple Twitter accounts, like the mobile app?
Daniel Erickson
Whoa, cool! Does it wrap twitter's mobile web client?
Jack Hanford
@techwraith yep! Twitter's new site performs at app like speeds, so using native UI from electron (vibrancy) I was able to make things look a prettier 🐦
Mehedi Hassan
@jackhanford I am gonna send a pull request shortly, added a lot of new stuff :D
Jack Hanford
@mehedih_ wow awesome! I'll take a look / likely merge once I'm awake (1-2hours)
Daniel Williams
@mehedih_ @jackhanford this just makes me happy. Open Source at it's finest. Product is released and someone adds a pull request hours later.
Jack Hanford
@xcadaverx a big PR too. Lots of great additions πŸ‘
Gabriel Lewis
Does this take advantage of Twitter Lite?
Jack Hanford
@gabriel__lewis Yep! It's built off of Twitter Lite!
Ben Carlsen
Great! There used to be so many Twitter desktop clients for Mac, and now they've either all gone away or haven't been updated in years. This is a welcome addition.
Jason Bell
Excellent job. People may give you grief because of Electron, but it doesn't bother me and adds a lot of value.
Jack Hanford
@j_jason_bell really appreciate it ❀️️!
Whitney Hummel
Wow, that's nice
Jack Hanford
Thanks me. Simple and convenient application.
