Hey everyone! I recently posted about my latest project, a universal fediverse sharing button: https://stefanbohacek.com/project/fediverse-sharing-button/

Is this something that you'd find useful for your website or blog?

EDIT: Thanks everyone for sharing and trying this out! I fixed an issue on iOS some of you might have run into, just FYI.

I'm prototyping a fediverse sharing button. Anyone interested in giving it a try?

Feature highlights:

  • shows a logo of supported fediverse software
  • lets you share selected text
  • remembers the last fediverse domain used

Demo: https://fediverse-share-button.stefanbohacek.dev/
Download: https://github.com/stefanbohacek/fediverse-share-button/

I'd also love to hear from folks who use alternative solutions. Or maybe avoid them on purpose?

I just added a note on Phanpy. I really like how prominent the image description field is when you upload an image, and I am guessing this contributes to the notably high use of alt text.

Great work, @cheeaun!

I was just thinking about this service I used to use, couple years ago. Peek, from UserTesting.

Basically a free, 5 minute video of someone using your site. It was a lot of fun!

"a bunch of [...] Twitter usernames that are not controlled by people that are just robots that are programmed to release information related to all these different things and that's really interesting, it's kind of cool [...]"

Anyway, it looks like they brought it back?

I wonder why the Android Gmail app shows the number of emails in your trash. They don't do that in the web version.

I use filters and labels pretty extensively, so this breaks the ability to quickly scan my unread emails.

Minor nuisance, but still makes me wonder about this design decision/inconsistency.

Here's a great example of how being "technically correct" can be detrimental to your goal in the form of a design tip.

Have you recovered from the news of the release of Penpot 2.0 yet?

While we wait for next week, here is another pill for our new UI.

There's a new toolbar at the top of the workspace in Penpot's new interface. Find out how it works! You'll love it.

An interesting visual change being tested on mastodon.social.

I like how the text about missing alt text stands out more as a warning, rather than an "FYI" note.

Not too sure about the text itself though. ("ALT" vs "No description added")

EDIT: To avoid any confusion, the hints on adding good alt text are the actual image I was uploading, not part of the design.

So now, instead of 1,500 words of alt-text that conceal the image itself after it's published, we get alt-tag-nags that conceal the image itself before it's even posted

And this is progress

Sorry: "progress"

Today I was in a coffee shop ☕ and got talking with a stranger 💬 who happened to also be a UX designer 🎨

It was a nice chat. Just a shame they were an Arsenal fan 🤭

So I finally got the latest update of the official Mastodon app with the new username design. (See comparison with the screenshot from the Android app store.)

What do you all think?

I kind of like it, but I do miss the "@"s.

Today, I heard that a client’s team has growing indicators that end users want less pages of minimal content and no scrolling (which leads to more clicks) and more single page, no click pages with lots of scrollable content. Has anyone heard similar inklings? Any UX/web designers seeing similar trends?

I think the new Mastodon compose form looks much better.

Finally a proper "dark mode"!

So I've been playing with the beta version of the upcoming Ableton Live 12 release, and while there's a few nice new features, the two I've gotten a ton of use out of already are:

  • being able to set a global key for your track (great for going through your own old material when looking for an inspiration)
  • and the ability to "go back" in search (not having this really bugged me)

It really is the little things!

This was a pretty fun format to experiment with for presenting fediverse posts.

I'm hoping to have the code review for my Fediverse Embeds WordPress plugin wrapped up over the next week or two.

Huge thanks to everyone who helped me test it!

There's a few minor issues I'm currently looking into, and I'd still appreciate folks giving it a try before the full release.

One specific question I have for folks, I am using the 👑 emoji as an optional (can be disabled in plugin settings) label for server admins.

Are there better options?
