Dear community,

I hope this message finds you well. I want to take a moment to address the concerns raised in Issue #2795 regarding the BLOB functionality in our app. First and foremost, I sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration this may have caused. I was on vacation during this time, and I understand that my absence may have contributed to the lack of clarity surrounding this issue.

The BLOB feature is an important aspect of our app, and I recognize that the documentation surrounding it has not been as clear as it should be. I appreciate your patience as we work through these challenges, and I want to assure you that I am fully committed to resolving this matter.

As I return to work, I will prioritize updating the documentation to provide a comprehensive understanding of how the BLOB functionality works. I will also investigate the specific concerns raised in Issue #2795 to ensure that any underlying issues are addressed promptly.

Your trust in our software is paramount, and I am dedicated to regaining any confidence that may have been affected by this situation. I am confident that, with your continued support and feedback, we can enhance the app and provide a better experience for all users.

Thank you for your understanding and for being a part of our community. I look forward to sharing updates with you soon as we work towards improving our app and its documentation.

Warm regards, longpanda

I saw this app featured on a YouTube channel and thought it was pretty interesting, especially for GNOME users. However there is a rather weird thing about it: it claims to be using Piped for YouTube but it doesn't get the "Sign in to confirm that you're not a bot" error. I guess it uses a different API when Piped gives an error.

Instant wants to recapture some of the magic of the pre-Google-acquisition Firebase by building a modern, Postgres-based open source version of it.
