- Big thank you to @SafariZoneHQ for allowing me to utilize their customer-base to test out the new queue system. Apart from unfinished portions confusing people, it was a great technical success! The peak in the queue was 1000+ people at a time, which cleared up quickly!
- Big showing today on @SafariZoneHQ's Journey Together Booster Box drop! 222 real customers got an opportunity to buy before it sold out (first image)! The number of bots, many. How many bought? 0. How many caught? Let's just say, we've got a few (second image).
- New backend feature in testing: Bot Catcher. Using undisclosed techniques, bots are now being caught, stored, and categorized to allow Stores the ability to take action on them. No automated action is taken, as human discretion is recommended.
- 🎉Droppable has officially been APPROVED ✅ by Shopify! We will provide information about becoming an early access store soon, so keep an eye out on this page. You may see us start popping up on some stores soon as well. 👀
- With the 3rd rewrite of the queue, iOS users finally can properly get through the queue without encountering fetch errors. It also sustained over 2k people at once in a single queue. The queue was slow for load testing, but now I can pick up the pace!
- If you told me months ago that Droppable would actually work, I'd laugh and tell you only janky solutions existed, because that's all I knew of. Building Droppable has been a learning experience over everything. Thank you all, and here's to more progress! - G
- If you are a store looking to inquire about Droppable, I have opened direct messages on this account. Please reach out here and when I am able, I will get back to you!
- Here are the themed ratelimit pages. The theming will be configurable by the store, or if they choose not to theme it, there is a default page. (NOTE: Images are preproduction and may change prior to general availability)
- Our latest improvement to the queue system has been deployed. We have moved away from the code-based queue system which had issues of queue resets due to mismanagement of multi-writes. With our test drop, thanks to @SakurasCardShop, we saw no reports of errors previously seen!
- Behold the might of Droppable.All we got to say about tonight ....
GIF - Replying to @droppabledotdevThe peak of the queue was ~250 requests, and the drop lasted ~2 minutes. This information was permitted to be disclosed by Safari Zone management.
- As we move closer to public release, a new feature has arrived in early stages: Queue Theme Editing. "Investor" tier Droppable stores were given themed Queues to test the system, but also to give identity to their checkout process. This feature will be included in the top tier!
- Upcoming update: Due to Discord's ratelimits, if your request gets rejected due to their API, you will be presented with a waiting room page that will automatically redirect you when Discord tells the server it can request your data without error again.
