BIG UX UPDATE!

Hi everyone!

We’re making Chums simpler and more user-friendly for you:

All servers are now updated! Domain services are now unified across servers, and shared rooms for news and support are added. And that’s just the beginning.

Tabs have been revamped. There are now two: general chats and recommendations from the server owner. How it works deserves its own post—adding it to the backlog!

Servers now greet you with custom homepages 🏡, giving each community its own unique style.

Experimental features? Of course! We’ve improved multi-account support for smoother switching.

And let’s not forget the bug fixes:
📸 Image sharing on iOS is fixed.
📌 Pins now respond to clicks.
👥 No more message cuts when mentioning multiple people.
⚡️ Faster app launches and smoother GIFs.

Important: we now have a unified support group. Join here.

The old groups will remain accessible for some time as we transition.

🎂 And one more thing: our first birthday is coming up! We’re turning one, and we’ve got a very cool gift prepared for you. You’re going to love it.

Stay connected! 🦄

Forwarded from Everscale News
🎯 Chums Delivers on Its .ever Domain Commitment!

Back in January, Chums committed to pushing .ever domains from simple wallet tags to a true Web3 domain layer. Today we’re happy to report: the deliverables are live and open-source. 🚀

✔️ The Chums team delivered all promised components:

Cross-platform resolver library that translates .ever names into DNS, IPFS, TOR, on-chain addresses, and embedded HTML.

Chums Proxy — a local service that lets any browser open .ever domains out of the box.

Mobile & desktop bindings (Flutter packages + sample app) for quick integration.

On-chain hosting standard and a reference smart contract enabling decentralized websites to be hosted on Everscale.

Open docs & demos covering setup, record management, and real-world examples.

What’s next

The project moves into a two-month post-release support window: bug fixes and dev Q&A via GitHub issues.

📖 Read the full report.

Another concrete win for Everscale’s Governance 3.0 commitment model, stay tuned for more! 🔭

🎟 Rooms for token holders!

Remember we promised to tell you about the new Web3 feature from the last update? Sorry for disappearing, we got carried away with work. We’re back with news!

What is it: Exclusive rooms gated by fungible token balance. Hold the required amount to get access. Drop below the threshold and access is removed automatically.

Why you need this:
🎯 Exclusive groups for project holders
💎 Temporary access to content
⚔️ Guilds in quests and games
…and more.

How to set up:
When creating a group, select "Token holders", choose your token, set the minimum amount for access, and optionally add a link where people can get the token.

How it works:
The system automatically checks wallet balance. Balance drops below threshold? Auto-kick from the room. Top up again? Welcome back!

Where it's available:
✔️ Everscale: fully ready
🔜 Other networks: integration in progress

Works across servers:
Users from different servers can join the same room if Everscale is enabled on those servers.

📦 By the way, mini-release 1.0.49 is out:
Mobile: Sharper avatars, cleaner look.
Desktop: Sharper avatars, higher emoji/GIF window, fixed 1-on-1 call popup.

Grab the latest version:
Google Play | App Store | APK | Windows | Linux

See you soon, a fresh build is in the oven! 🧁
