Project Blank UI 1 Year Anniversary. The current Inleo interface was launched one year ago, and it has growth exponentially from being just microblogging with Threads, to a feature rich platform like no other in Web3. The speed of the development has created a technical debt, where many bugs are still to be handled even when a lot more have been addressed on the go.

The current set of features that are life are amazing, and now the focus will be on cleaning up and making the UI scalable, stable, enjoyable, fun and bug free. That said, we are still working on new features, one of the biggest ones that we will be rolling this 2024 is Leo AI. We will continue to do it live, and break things on our way to reaching the goals we have set, because aiming for perfection slows downs development and the actual tests.

Stay with us as we keep growing.
