Summary

"New in SuperSplat" post for the Follow, home page and XR release. It lands unlisted (unlisted: true) until release day, the same way #90 staged the Editor 3.0 post.

New in SuperSplat: Follow Creators, a New Home Page and Two-Handed XR   (2026-10-07)
├── 👥 Follow Creators and Grow Your Audience   Follow, Following tab, profile cards, notifications
├── 🧭 A New Home Page and Search               Spotlight, tabs, /search filters
├── 🥽 Grab Your Splats in XR                   two-hand grab, Quest 3 9.7 → 30.7 → 40.3 fps
├── 🧰 And More                                 splat counts, Studio timeline, Editor 3.5, uploads, --camera-track
└── 💚 / 👂                                     series closing

Still open before it's listed:

  • XR video static/img/supersplat-xr-two-hand-grab.mp4 (placeholder box in the post)
  • Notifications video static/img/supersplat-notifications.mp4 (placeholder box in the post)
  • Remove both Placeholder: boxes (grep -n Placeholder blog/2026-10-07-*.md should come back empty)
  • Credit the creators of the splats shown in the home page screenshot, or retake it
  • Publish only once the features it announces are live for everyone
  • Confirm the publish date; the filename and byline still say 2026-10-07 (the slug is set in front matter, so renaming the file won't change the URL)
  • Link the Follow docs (Add a SuperSplat Following Creators page developer-site#1268) from the Follow section

Evidence

  • Before: the XR video embed pointed at a file that doesn't exist, so the page showed an empty player.
    After: both missing videos are marked with a visible Placeholder: box, so nothing renders broken. Checked in a local preview. markdownlint-cli2 reports 0 errors.

Merge Danger

Door: two-way

One new Markdown file plus its media. Reverting removes them.

Blast Radius: minimal

Unlisted, so it stays off the index and the sidebar and is only reachable by direct URL. The two placeholder boxes are visible to anyone with the link until the videos land.

Draft "New in SuperSplat" post dated 2026-10-07, unlisted until release
day. Three sections plus a short roundup:

- Follow Creators: Follow on profiles and scene pages, the Following tab
  on Home, follower and following lists
- A New Explore and Search: Spotlight carousel, Trending/Latest tabs,
  the /search page with filters and sort, the top nav and the Likes tab
- Grab Your Splats in XR: two-handed manipulation, Quest 3 frame rates,
  AR passthrough, Vision Pro on WebGPU
- And More: Studio timeline, Editor 3.5, upload reliability and
  SplatTransform camera-track rendering

The video embeds point at placeholder files that don't exist yet:
/img/supersplat-follow.mp4, /img/supersplat-explore-search.mp4 and
/img/supersplat-xr-two-hand-grab.mp4.

Turn the draft notes into flowing paragraphs that lead with the problem
each change solves: following creators (and growing an audience as a
creator), the home page redesign that moves common requests out of the
search bar, and softer wording for the planned notification system.

Also rename the title to say "a New Home Page" to match the section,
call the new stat a splat count (105.9M on the linked scene) and keep
the Studio timeline bullet to what the docs can back up.

Add the Follow clip and a profile card hover clip to the Follow section
and move the creator paragraph ahead of the profile card. Add home page
and search page screenshots, rewrite the search copy as prose and drop
the top bar and Likes paragraphs along with the missing search video.
