Congrats @Wronglebowsk 🤠

Would you rock this
Thank you to everyone who traveled from across the world to NousCon 2026. We loved spending time with the people who make the Hermes community great. As you all know, we released the Hermes Mobile beta at the event, and as anticipated it filled up quickly. We are working tirelessly to free up more room in the beta, and to get the app production ready for wider release. The feedback has been incredible so far, and we are excited to share it with the world soon. In the meantime, please join the waitlist at https://t.co/Oszcqj0vfO

Tomorrow gonna be a movie fr (If they made movies about Discord groups that do foundational research and post-training then blossom into companies that proliferate the most widely used open source agent harness in the world that host an annual conference every year except it's actually more like a big party slash beta test slash merch distribution mechanism)
