Find out what Moss has been growing lately! It has a number of new tools, some official and some community contributed, some extremely useful and others simply fun 🙂
A software framework may claim to be innovative, but if it hasn't got any apps, does it matter? Moss is being used daily by groups to plan and execute their work, and apparently play chess when they've got the time.

Just posted a long overdue update about what's been going on in Lightningrod Labs: lightningrodlabs.org/blog/ca…

If you're new to Moss, it's local-first, open-source groupware that doesn't use a server. That means that your group can still do its work off-grid, on an airplane, or in the midst of a natural disaster. No public internet required.
Download it and try it with your friends at moss.social

We're grateful to all of you for being as stubborn as us, for putting your trust in us as we build for a world without capturable centres. Read Holo Ventures' paper for a frank facing of our challenges, our accomplishments, and why we believe the world needs this now more than ever.
Holo Ventures just published a new paper. In the nine years since we published the original Green Paper, we can look back and say three things:
1. Our diagnosis of where the world was heading was spot-on.
2. We underestimated how long it would take to build a solution.
3. The world needs capture-resistant infrastructure more than ever.
We're saying this now because one thing has changed: the infrastructure is ready.
It's been a long journey, but we've passed the hardest milestones and we're ready to help you rebuild the world different. Come build with us.

The pragmatic case for decentralisation is more salient now than it was in 2017 -- it's becoming clearer by the day that centralisation is a strategic vulnerability for communities, institutions, and businesses. We've got the tools, along with hard-won wisdom about building for decentralisation, and are ready to help people build solutions.

First entry in our "vibe code your own little hApp" challenge. Very impressive; keep them coming!
Here is a video of the @Holochain Blackjack app so you can get an idea of the speed. Not bad for day 1. $HOT #Holochain #HappSprint

(reminder: to get started, try @soushi888 's github.com/Soushi888/holocha… with your favourite agentic coding harness -- they're looking for feedback on how it's working for you!)

@soushi888 has been working hard to create and test an agent skill for building hApps. If you're a vibe coder or developer, we're extending @soushi888 's request to you: try it, push it, break it so it can reach v1.0 with a high standard of quality.
This skill is meant to take you from empty folder to tested app and packaged installer ready for distribution. The repo currently targets Holochain 0.7.0. As we mentioned last week, it puts the power to create a hApp in the hands of more people. nitter.net/Holochain/status/20962…
holochain-agent-skills v1.0.0-rc.1 is up, and I want it broken before I call it 1.0.
It teaches a coding agent Holochain 0.7: coordinator and integrity split, entry and link design, validation, Sweettest, packaging.
Claude Code, opencode, Copilot, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex, etc.

We said yesterday that Holochain isn't directly for end users. But that's not so true anymore
You, dear human, have a unique gift — you know exactly what you need, more than anyone else. You know the ways the big platforms fail you, and you're the one who's expereienced the pains in your community that no startup is trying to meet.
And you can build a tool for that now, with the help of AI.
But you don't have the time, money, or training to keep a server running. So why not build it as a hApp instead? It's the weekend; you could start right away.
It doesn't need to be perfectly polished or full-featured. It just needs to work for you right now.

This is the kind of thing we want to see! Keep 'em coming!
Now the HOT to Holofuel countdown has begun. I have decided to start a new challenge. I am going to try to vibe code a new @Holochain hApp every week. I have 0 experience coding Holochain apps so let's see what I can make. ethereum:0x6c6ee5e31d828de241282b9606c8e98ea48526e2

Here's some inspiration on 'why build your own app' from @Mappletons : maggieappleton.com/home-cook…
And this will help your coding agent get started with Holochain: github.com/Soushi888/holocha…
Show us what you built! Mention @holochain and we'll reshare it.

We've been watching @YourOwnAI and team members have been trying it, and it's exciting to see the progress. Putting the power of AI in the hands of those who created the wealth of knowledge it trained itself on 🎯
Your Own AI, version 0.7.0, just dropped!! 🎉
Download now @ yourownai.net/download/
This is the biggest release since launch.
Four things lead it:
🎯 Your AIs decide where a question goes, and you set the leaning. Allow online, and an AI answers with a frontier model by default, keeping a question on your own computer when a model there is better for it. One dial sets how much goes online: Frontier-first, Balanced, Local-first. Online models are set by job: everyday questions, the genuinely hard ones, the live web, agent work, planning. Health questions never leave your machine. New online models and providers arrive without waiting for an app update.
🧩 Add-ons are here. Skills (know-how in the open Agent Skills standard), Tools (MCP programs your AIs can work in), Characters (a complete AI in one signed pack), and components for your computer, each signed by its maker and reviewed before it is listed. Sharing your own is one button, signed with your Flowsta Identity.
🔧 Tools and skills in chat. Give any AI tools and skills from the chip beside the model chip, switch them on or off per AI, and set the same approvals as in projects. A tool's turn speaks plainly and folds its steps underneath.
👋 A welcome that gets you talking in minutes: one model picked for your computer, your first three AIs, and a download that never blocks. Ask while it runs and the answer arrives the moment the model lands.
Plus so much more..

Marketing open-source infrastructure with a vision behind it is a unique challenge.
Our market is the people building apps. But the people who immediately get Holochain's value are often on the other end — the ones the builders are building for.
People ask why we're not doing any marketing. We are -- you just might not be able to see it unless you're in one of the industries that we think are in desperate need of P2P tech. The kind of industry where money, safety, or even lives are on the line if the umbilical cord to the cloud gets cut.
And from experience, those people don't usually show up on X. They do show up online (mostly LinkedIn) but even more they show up at conferences, in offices, through personal introductions — the original social networks. We meet them over coffee, not a tweet.
Their use cases may not have universal attraction, but they serve real needs — maybe yours. That's always been our goal.

Just a reminder: hApps are shipping on phones, folks. Usable today, downloadable for Android/macOS/Windows/Linux. (It works best on a Volla phone of course 😉)
Your data. Your devices. Your cloud. 🔐
The Volla Cloud is already in action with Volla Messages and Volla Recovery.
No data center. No central server. No third-party access.
The future of cloud is decentralized. 🌐

The internet is down again. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Copilot. Even AWS and Cloudflare. All down within minutes of each other. There goes your morning.
Server outages are barely even news anymore. They're just a cost of doing business.
We hate to say we told you so, but… this is clearly structural. When you centralise critical stuff, it's a vulnerability to you and your users.
What if your platform had no outages because you had no server?

ICYMI: This is a Holochain app, running on an iPhone. 🍎 Not joking. Apple didn't make it easy for us, and it's taken longer than we wanted, but here it is!
ALT An iPhone shows the output of a sample Holochain app, with diagnostic output that proves a Holochain app is running locally.

Holochain 0.7.0 is out. It's faster than 0.6, uses less memory, has some code ergonomics improvements, comes with an AI skill to help you update your code, and… it's got a fruity surprise that should excite both devs and users 🍎
