✨ Now Open
After two and a half months of quiet, steady growth, OS Yamato has opened its gates to the world. This isn’t just software — it’s a philosophy of impermanence, care, and simplicity.
⸻
🌿 Philosophy
We believe digital memories, like real ones, shouldn’t last forever by default.
OS Yamato invites you to experience a mindful, seasonal digital space: • No hoarding • No clutter • Just meaningful moments
🕊️ Notes, photos, and messages gently fade if left untouched — and disappear after a year.
⸻
🖼️ How It Works • Each data object (note, photo, contact…) includes a lastOpenedAt timestamp. • After 330 days, it shows a 🥀 icon — a sign of digital wilting. • After 365 days, it’s automatically deleted.
Let it return to the wind.

🌸 Features • Diary — Entries bloom and fade like flowers • Chat — Seasonal animations turn conversations into gentle encounters • Memo & Contacts — Designed to wilt without revisiting • Photos & Videos — Live 365 days unless you return • Wind Messages — Letters that arrive months later, like whispers on the breeze • Clock & Games — Time visualized poetically
