Socket's alpha is finally here! Available for Patreon supporters!
patreon.com/cw/SocketLaunche…
Keep in mind this version is an alpha, so there might be lots of bugs, feel free to report those using the in-app feedback button (in the settings). I wanted to release the launcher now to get it in people's hands and get a ton of feedback to really improve the UX and fix bugs in the coming weeks!
I want to thank everyone who followed the project and those who supported me early!
⚠️ A small change to note: for now I've decided to remove the bottom screen on Socket, since there was nothing yet and I wanted to make sure i had something cool to put and not just random/basic info. I have a few ideas in mind but feel free to share if you also have some!
