Mastodon Bird UI is now in version 2.0.0rc30. To this version I've been experimenting with the new 2024-03 v4.3.0-alpha.3 UI and @nileane Tangerine UI's compact header on mobile, thanks for the inspiration and shortcuts code-wise! :bunhdheart:
This version also includes some slight fixes, icons and other improvements.
The release v2.0.0 will be massive, but we're not there yet with Mastodon v4.3.0 and because I'm following the Mastodon mainline and there is no ETA, I'm taking it easy as well.
"Out-of-touch, influential old guy working in web accessibility for many years claims that all hope is gone and only #AI can save us. People who he thinks are disabled will receive a more “concise” UI, because he thinks they are not able to use a computer and assistive technology."
Посмотрел пару #ui / #ux советов онлайн и просветлел.
Понял, что дизайн должен начинаться с чего-то маленького. Точнее, с мобилок. А также с маленькой насыщенности -- контраст ведь тоже должен быть.
Выбрал себе палитру из достаточно приятных цветов. Теперь синий не выжигает экраны!
Я не знаю, как сделать ещё понятнее, что радио-кнопки внизу переключают тип ссылки: буквенно-цифровая или только цифровая.
Еще, кстати: есть какие-нибудь годные альтернативы шрифту Lexend (https://www.lexend.com)? Просто менять шрифт для русского текста не представляется возможным и модифицировать тоже не очень хочется.
that edit and delete button are so close together will never not be fatally unfortunate 😬 #ui#ux#mastodon
Yeah. Who would have thunk, even in red, that anyone would accidentally delete important posts trying to edit them. Nobody would do this. Of course not. Soooo ridiculous! 😢
one thing i don’t like about the Linux UI are the fonts. The default fonts don’t look as nice as MacOS. Linux fonts have an “unfinished” look about them - like someone said “publish them for now. we’ll fix the fonts on the next release”
I guess I'll start studying some environmental art in Unity to expand my skills. Going to get a free (paid for) course for it, so it'll be fun but tough. (:
(I'll do this on the side whenever I have time, unless it ends up paying the bills)
Just discovered Webflow is sharing works made by black folks and advices for them on their blog.
I might be ignorant but It's not something I see a lot in the occidental tech industries mainly composed and managed by white folks who dont actively do something to compensate that systemic imbalance.
All Emoji-pickers are cursed, but there's a special place in hell for those that make you scroll through a bunch of premium emojis to get to the "free" ones
Someone really rich, related to someone really powerful, just died, possibly because Tesla tried to save a buck on their $80K SUV and not install a normal shift stalk, and I hope they sue the shit out of #Tesla.
I had no idea they got rid of the shift stalk in the Model X, replacing it with this nonsense. I’d never buy a car with such bad #UI.
I just want to write some code, maybe make some music, maybe draw some pictures.
I don't want to be mad about blockchains, I don't want to be mad about GenAI, I don't want to be mad about terrible backfiring "think of the children" legislation, I don't want to be terrified about the rising tide of bigoted, racist fascism ending democracy in my lifetime.
I don't want you to have to be mad about all that either.
I wish the world would leave us all alone for a little bit.
I recently solved the problem of crappy #UI (unreadable labels) on a new washer and dryer by making #Braille labels for the otherwise-unreadable selector buttons.
hello 🌱
lurkers + fediverse!
Long shot but i'm looking for an accomodation in #Brussels starting in April.
long term or short term, room or studio. I'm flexible as long as it feels cosy and with friendly and respecuful ppl :)
