What we shipped today

250 new members joined since the last post, and today's changes focus on the feed, link posts, and Masterminds.

• LinkedIn-style feed posts: Long posts clip to three lines with a ...more you can open in place, authors show a larger photo with headline and a grey when-and-where line, and the actions sit in a bar across the bottom.
• Link posts: AI news posts link to the Lounge news story with a short summary, and other link posts show their original source.
• Feed filters: The Showing dropdown narrows For You to founders, developers, investors, corporate members, your city or country, Pro members, or People I Follow, and on wide screens it sits in the tab row.
• Fresh feed on every reload: The feed now surfaces posts you have not seen yet, so the same top post no longer shows up each time.
• Verified founders: Founders whose ARR is verified get a blue check next to their name and a Verified sticker.
• Masterminds: The next call has a Next up card with who is going and the leading topics, past calls list their topics and the total ARR in the room, calls run 60 minutes, and Masterminds sits above Meetups in the left nav.
• @mentions: Type @ and two letters in posts and comments to pick a member, and mentioned members get a notification and an email with a link to the post.
• Member type labels: Founder, Developer, Corporate, or Investor appears next to each author's name on post cards.
• City and country spaces: Your city and country show up as spaces in the left nav with posts from members who live there.
• Today in AI: Stories now refresh every morning, and the carousel has a light mode.
