At first glance, this font looks like someone who desires to be free-spirited but must appear serious.
Previously, when Lianna saw this font while looking at Jon’s upload of the "Overview and Detailed Rules of New City Planning" on the Mother Tree Forum, her comment was: Judging by the font, Jon is very much like you and Sanders, both being very repressed.
Angel, however, felt that Lianna was simply taking the opportunity to belittle Sanders, and he and Jon were just incidental. He didn’t consider this font repressive but rather reserved.
Angel admired the font with full appreciation, then focused on the update announcement.
The content of the announcement was all about the introduction of new features after the Tree Group’s version update.
Angel had previously noticed the removal of bubble color distinctions, replaced by name distinctions; the recording of message send time was reflected in the announcement content.
In addition, there was mention of the roles of each function key in the "Function Integration".
These include editing personal profiles, friend lists, adding friends, etc.
The announcement content was not much, but every feature was a major iteration, gradually aligning with Earth’s social software.
Angel also experienced the different features one by one according to the update announcement.
The personal profile is fundamental; every new user entering the Tree Group will fill out their profile first. Existing users can also edit their profiles, but the current version doesn’t support unlimited edits; changes can only be made once.
Since the Tree Group currently doesn’t have many users, Jon knows all the user names, so he has considerately filled in Angel’s name on the personal profile.
Angel could edit and change it; he could use Transcendental Wizard instead of his real name. However, in the current Mother Tree network environment, except for Jon’s name being "Tree Group Development Team", everyone still uses real names instead of screen names.
Angel has a vision beyond the current network era, but he doesn’t plan to go against the flow now, so he didn’t change the name.
As for the details like the friend list, Angel checked all of them, and there were basically no errors.
After all, Jon stands on the shoulders of predecessors, having experienced the era of information explosion. He has a clear direction and plan, so no matter how the Tree Group develops, it won’t be too bad.
After Angel finished experiencing it, he sent friend requests to Sanders and Jon.
Sanders was already offline and didn’t accept it temporarily, but Jon accepted Angel’s request immediately.
Soon after accepting, Jon sent Angel a message: "Did you experience the new version? What do you think?"
Angel knows Jon’s character well; he hurriedly asked not because he was not confident in his work but simply needed user feedback or a special case like Angel to provide feedback.
The Tree Group, which Jon established, mimics Earth’s network era social software, and the client group of Earth’s social software are naturally modern humans of the information age. Although humans dominate the Wizards’ Realm, Jon worries that due to the difference in civilizations, such software may not adapt well in this realm.
So, someone like Angel, who understands both Earth’s civilization and the wizarding world, is needed for client feedback.
"Do other users have any opinions about the new version?" Angel didn’t answer immediately and asked instead.
Jon: "Not really, they’re using it quite fluently. The witch Lianna is already urging for more interlinkers. I’ve already ground all my Mother Tree branches into powder; for now, there’s still some capacity to supply. But with a large number of Transcendents entering the New City every day, I estimate these Mother Tree branch powders won’t last long. I contacted you also intending for you to bring more branches to me."
"I’ll give you the Mother Tree branches later." Angel paused, then continued typing: "Since no one has any complaints, and the Transcendent users are surging, doesn’t this mean the new version of the Tree Group is quite good?"
Jon: "Well, that’s true, but without a root server, I don’t know if new users prefer browsing the Mother Tree Forum or the Tree Group."
The Mother Tree Forum has not been updated yet, but the Tree Group has been iterated, which is why Jon is apprehensive about the new version of the Tree Group.
"The monitoring of data flow is indeed something that needs attention. I’ll delve into the Mother Tree network later and materialize this feature in the immersive network through server means. At that time, I’ll distribute permission to you." Angel said.
Jon immediately replied with joyful affirmation: "Big data might be useless initially, but it will be very useful in the future."
Angel brought the topic back: "Let’s talk about my thoughts. Just as I said before, since other users aren’t averse to the new version of the Tree Group, it means they’re accepting this setup."
"From my personal experience, it’s quite good, but many features seem not yet included, like creating a new chat group."
Currently, there’s only one chat group in the entire Tree Group, and all users are in it. Just now, Angel glanced at it and found it was full of Lianna giving instructions, providing opinions on New City construction, and apprentices involved in the construction responding according to her ideas.
It has essentially devolved from a general discussion group into a chat group for New City construction.
This has already shown an imbalance in the chat group, requiring new chat groups for separation.
Moreover, when Angel looked at the previous chats, besides Lianna, he occasionally saw the bubbles of Ironclad Granny and Tree Spirit, but the chat bubbles of Kudodo, Babaya, and others had completely disappeared since the beginning.
After all, with different levels... when Angel spoke in the chat group initially, they all trembled. With such greater presences appearing in the chat group, they wouldn’t dare to be presumptuous. Fearing to say something wrong, they simply didn’t chat in the group at all.
This obviously goes against the original intention of establishing the chat group.
Jon: "I know about this too, but meals have to be spoon-fed; if too much is given at once, they’d also be overwhelmed. Version 0 primarily focuses on private chats and adding friends."
"In future versions, we’ll talk about creating new chat groups. I’m also considering whether to completely remove the chat group creation restriction like Earth’s civilization, or adopt a guild-like application system."
