We've been working hard to make Swarm even better! Here’s what’s new this week:
🗳️ Add Polls While Composing Text Posts
Engagement just got easier! Now, you can create a poll directly while composing a text post, rather than having to add it afterward. This makes it more seamless to gather quick opinions, spark discussions, and interact with your members in real-time.
🌗 Spaces Now Adapt to Light & Dark Mode
Your members' experience should feel natural and effortless. With this update, Spaces will automatically adjust to match their computer’s light or dark mode settings. They still have full control to customize it in their profile settings, but now the default experience will feel more intuitive.
Note:
If you're a white label customer, you can manually force light/dark mode for all your members in your white label settings.🎬 Thumbnails for Text Posts in Video Hubs
Visual content matters! You can now upload a custom thumbnail or select an Unsplash image for text posts inside Video Hubs. This means text-based discussions can stand out more and feel as visually engaging as video content, making it easier for members to browse and interact.
🔴 Improved Red Dot Notifications
No more lingering notifications! We’ve refined the way unread indicators work, so red dots on posts and comments will now disappear immediately after you’ve viewed them. This small but impactful improvement ensures a smoother experience and helps members keep track of what’s truly unread.
These updates are designed to make Swarm more engaging, intuitive, and visually compelling. Let us know what you think, and stay tuned for more improvements!
