The icon is a placeholder made from the recolored fediverse icon I threw together in 20 mins. I know what the actual one will be, but it’ll take 6-12+ hours to put together
The visuals will take at least 5-7 days of tweaking unless I find examples of something similar to reference
Instead, I fixed bugs, and posted a beta to get feedback on what I should prioritize.
In that time, I could get a ~15x performance increase, add a dozen random requested features, add kbin and maybe mastodon support, or get halfway through building custom feeds by stitching multiple sorts across accounts and servers.
I build adaptable code, and so I built a foundation. I’m a photographer, not an artist - making things pretty is pure trial and error for me, because I can’t picture the end result. I haven’t started to try to make it pretty or optimized, I just made it extremely capable and clean enough that I could use it
Can you give specifics of what you find grating instead of just telling me it’s ugly?
Honestly, I wrote it out, it felt awkward and more like a changelog than anything, I ran it through chat gpt and it stripped out enough details that it flowed better. I deleted everything it said that wasn’t what I wanted to say, and we got something that someone read long enough to see the disclaimer
Also, it’s over the top and flowery as hell even after tweaking it, but I didn’t write it - I got to skip several hours of self consciously agonizing over it before clicking submit and stressing out some more.
Chat-gpt isn’t any more lazy than using a power saw. I couldn’t have done better by hand, every statement it made was fed to it by me, and I edited down the output in multiple stages so I can stand by the accuracy of the result
Awesome! Let me know what the pain points are, there’s a lot of polishing to do so I doubt I can steal you away from whatever you’re using just yet. But if nothing else it’ll get to the point you keep it around for the utility
And feel free to go crazy with feature requests - the foundation is deep and flexible, and I’m looking forward to the crazy things I can build on top of it
