  • You'd have to ask @velocio for stats on the mobile/desktop split of web traffic but I can tell you the traffic from the mobile app would barely register. Mostly because the app has only been available for 2 months while the web version has been running for 16 years or so.

    I track little to nothing, I have no stats... but I am wondering whether I can track stats, it will require some crazy thing as I'd need to track the client for the OAuth, and then the access_tokens issued, and from that then correlate those access_tokens to requests and usage.

    You asked: would the app be able to stand alone from Microcosm? Not sure I fully understand the question, but the answer is almost certainly not. The app is just a very thin client, and the Microcosm back end does all the heavy lifting.

    I think the answer is yes... because Microcosm is implemented as two things... an API that does 95% of heavy lifting, and a web app that is merely an API client that does 5% of the heavy lifting... and there is nothing that this website can do that the mobile client couldn't do, because the website is just an API client.

  • there is nothing that this website can do that the mobile client couldn't do,

    Apart from authentication of course. I sent you some messages about that btw.
