Is there actually anything being used on the latest network.

Etch/Fetch it. Cool couple of apps if you ask me. I’m not sure about the original rollout schedule tho.

Might help if there was any advertising/marketing. As it stands, zero publicity traction. Most of the world doesn’t know it exists, let alone its differentiating capability or true potential.
If they get this new forum / discord platform running on the network that everyone can move to I think that will be a decent moment to start shouting about it.
Bux has mentioned in recent updates that marketing is coming, but it obviously needs to be timed well with something very good to show people. Hopefully we are close to that.

I’m not sure about marketing anymore. So much ragebait, clickbait, nonsense, brainrot, ai slop, attention grabbing, antagonizing bullshit out there people have grown numb and pay little attention to anything.
David would have to put his head in a bucket full of hot caramel and then sit next to the biggest ant nest in Scotland blabbering about agents, decentralized networks, networking, humanity – and ants – with his accent.
In all honesty, I don’t believe there are any non-vague, non-conformist marketing plans. There will be some generic content by a couple of low-tier paid influencers. If the team had any idea how to market this to anyone outside the community, there would already be some sort of buildup and it would have been going on for years, months at least.

All these years of development, the community (invested community) screaming from the rooftops to market it! And yet year over year, the response has been “Don’t worry it’s coming,” “We’re almost there,” “Just one more version,” “Just need to squash these bugs,” “Be patient.” I’m sure I am leaving out dozens of other just-wait responses from the team. I still am skeptical whether they can get past any regulations at this late stage. Gov’t’s are increasing their capture and management of all citizen data (just read about the World Economic Forum’s agenda, articles and minutes) and will not tolerate an uncontrollable internet technology.
If the network works as the best alternative to the captured internet, then it won’t need any marketing.
Yeah.
Getting great products working on Autonomi would be the best marketing, e.g. if people & projects start using a quality decentralised alternative to Discord / Discourse / slack / X / YouTube / Spotify etc etc.
Getting a platform capable of delivering these is the first step. Developing the products is the next.
While promotion activity may not be essential once this is achieved, it could help get word out faster than organic growth will do alone, and enable more people to benefit from the tech more quickly. But promotion without awesome products will just be wasted, except a possible short-term token price pump.
