Me and my partner have been developing imPlural for about 2 months now. Given the news about Simply Plural shutting down, we wanted a good app where you can have friends and see their status easily. Nothing was really available at the time, and even now it doesn't feel there's options that feel comfortable to us. We think there are others who are in a similar boat as us. Since we're both developers with years of experience, we thought to build an app which would have solid friends system as a core feature. Eventually we want to support more Simply Plural features and others as well depending on community interest. Here's a few things that are already in alpha 2: * imPlural is web based, which means you can either use it in your browser or install it on your device (with offline use supported). iOS is also supported and we're constantly working to make it feel good on iOS, Android, Mac and PC. * We do our best in accessibility support and thoughtful simple design so imPlural feels comfortable to use. That also means new features come out slower than many other recent apps, but we hope it pays off in building a strong foundation. * imPlural will stay free for everyone. Free of advertizing, free to use, available for anyone. We use community feedback and polling to inform the direction and features we work on. * You can import directly from Simply Plural and we will work on importing from other apps and syncing with PluralKit as we have time. We implemented an import wizard to help you import data accurately between apps and hopefully make it a painless process! * We do our best in accessibility support and thoughtful design so imPlural feels easy, simple and comfortable to use. That also means new features come out slower than many other recent apps, but we hope it pays off in building a strong foundation. We're working hard on bringing online and friend capabilities in the near future. That will be the topic of alpha 3. For now though, you can help and contribute via our Discord server by applying to be a tester or translator, or just following our updates over there!
