We've gone Public!
No, we haven't listed ourselves on the Stock Exchange (anyone wanna buy some shares in LRF?) 😄
We've decided to make the app public-facing, meaning anyone can now browse the site and see what it's all about without signing up or logging in. We initially decided to keep Lost Records Fans as a closed social network since so many of its features relied on user engagement, but we recognise that many Fans just want to use it as a resource rather than a community and that's fine.
If you're logged out and try to preform any action that requires an account, such as adding a Fan Art to your Favourites, or Commenting on a Screenshot, or Buying a Sticker, a modal will pop up, prompting you to either Sign In or Sign Up to continue:
Of course, we highly encourage signing up for a free account to get the most out of Lost Records Fans, including an entire Dashboard section with analytics, charts, tables, content management, Bug Report, Feature Request and Content Report in-app updates, live Notifications, points earning, live Achievements, Unlockables such as Stickers and Pin Badges and really unique interactive pages including a 90s style Sticker Album to place them in, and Pin Badge Showcases to show off your earned and purchased Pin Badges.
For Fans who want even more, we'd really appreciate you helping us to keep the lights on after spending so long building this app by considering subscribing to a Premium Account, with extra perks including weekly points drops and access to exclusive Unlockables.
But ultimately, thanks for being here at all. Take a look around and see you in hell! 🙌
