Welcome to the first week’s Online+ Prod Bulletin, where we track new features, performance updates, and standout moments from the decentralized world of Online+, brought to you by ION’s Product Lead, Yuliia.
🌐 Обзор
The past week marked a huge milestone for the team: Online+ officially went live. After months of development, testing, and fine-tuning, the platform is now out in the world, with the first wave of users already filling it with posts, stories, and conversations. The rollout went smoothly, and the product held strong under real-world use, validating months of behind-the-scenes work.
In the days leading up to launch, the team focused on final refinements to ensure a seamless release. Updates across Wallet, Chat, and Feed improved overall stability and responsiveness — from reordered network lists and smoother media uploads to better handling of long comment threads and safeguards for NSFW content. General improvements also enhanced video uploads and Android system compatibility.
Even as the team prepared for launch, the broader ecosystem continued to expand, with new communities and projects joining the platform and adding to the growing energy across Online+.
Now that the app is live, the focus shifts to refinement on the go. As new users flood in, minor bugs are surfacing, and the team is addressing them in real time to ensure a smoother experience across all devices. This hands-on approach will continue in the week ahead as work begins toward the next big milestone: monetization.
Online+ is live, active, and growing fast — and this is only the beginning.

💬 Юля берет
We did it! Online+ is live, and I still can’t quite believe it.
This launch has been such an adventure. Months of work, long nights, weekends, endless testing, and a team that never stopped pushing to make it happen. Bringing a product of this scale to a global audience is never easy, but we pulled it off. The rollout went even more smoothly than we hoped for, and it’s been incredible to see the app hold strong as new users join and fill it with content.
Watching Online+ come to life feels surreal. Every post, every story, every new account adds a little more energy. Now it’s not just our product anymore, but a living, breathing platform full of people and ideas.
There’s still so much ahead: new features, updates, improvements — the real journey starts now. But for this moment, we’re taking a breath, looking back, and celebrating how far we’ve come.
Happy birthday, Online+. You’re finally out in the world.

🔮 Неделя впереди
After the excitement of launch, the focus now shifts to refinement. This week, the team will work on fixes across the Chat, Wallet, and Feed modules, addressing major issues reported by users and ensuring a smoother experience across all devices.
We’re also continuing to gather feedback from new users joining the platform — every report and suggestion helps us make Online+ stronger, faster, and more reliable.
The next big thing on the horizon is monetization — the system that will reward creators and users for their activity, engagement, and contributions across the platform. It’s the next step in making Online+ not just social, but truly participatory.
Your voice builds this platform. Share your feedback, join the conversation, and help us redefine what social looks like — together.
