March's Grill Improvements

We’ve been cooking up some nice updates to Grill to improve functionality, quality of life, and ease of use. Here are the most recent four:

Embeds

Grill now supports embedding links from X, YouTube, Joystream, and SoundCloud! Sharing content into Web3 has never been easier, and provides yet another content stream for creators on Grill to monetize.

Login Flow & Session Sharing

Grill’s login process has been slightly reworked, with an emphasis on users using their Grill keys for a smoother and faster login process.

New (or returning) users without a Grill key can still access Grill using their Google or X accounts, or by connecting a blockchain wallet.

Grillers can easily log into their account from multiple devices using QR codes as well by selecting the Scan QR option on the Log in with Grill Key page!

To find your QR code, click on your profile picture in the top right corner of Grill, select Privacy and Security, and Share Session. Make sure to keep this QR code and the login link private, as they will grant access to your account!

Space Permissions

The user experience for managing space permissions has been overhauled, with all of the options now appearing in one place on the Edit space page. Space owners are able to have complete control over who posts in their spaces.

When creating a new space, it will default to Only you can post, which can later be changed by editing the space.

Notifications

Push notifications (using either WebPush or our notifications bot on Telegram) have been updated, with improved clarity and a wider range of notifications. Users can now be notified of activity on their posts or comments, such as when someone replies to them. This will help improve engagement on the platform, and in the result improve results for active users!

Make sure to set up your notification settings to stay engaged with the flow of life on Grill! What other features and quality of life improvements would you like to see? Let us know in the comments!
