Love me some street complete! It’s a great way for me to get out of the house and do stuff even when places are closed, since I’m not awake during the day

You sign in with your OSM account, and then when you add information via street complete your account submits the changes without needing to use the more advanced osm web interface

That looks awesome! I’m deeply nostalgic for that period of time, material design was the big thing when I was first getting into UI design and I was absolutely in love with it

Klwp and Kwgt are still a blast, that’s what almost all of my stuff is made out of, but iOS has its pros as well :) from what I hear things are progressively getting a little more customizable, if still pretty locked down

At some point I’d like to get a little better at animations so I can make my setup feel a little more alive, but for the time being it’s mostly just static elements

Lol, I’m somewhat similar. I’m a big ui/ux nerd but don’t have professional or academic experience other than some pro-bono work in high-school. But I love tinkering with my phone’s homesceen and other similar little projects. I’m hoping to make a neocites page soon!

This is my previous phone’s homescreen I posted a while back:

I’ve gotten a new phone since then and am still getting it updated to fit properly on a new screen, so right now it looks a little jank 😅 but it’s always interesting to hear how other people feel differently about aesthetics than yourself!

Interesting, thanks for sharing your perspective with me! ☺️

I’m curious how you feel about the GNOME application icons, they sound like they might be up your alley

Right now I generally have a preference for either weird stylized themed stuff I make myself, or very flat stuff like what android currently does for app icons, but I can certainly see the appeal of other stuff :)

I really like the application icons used in Gnome but I really like the consistent line weights and geometry of material symbolic icons so I’m still using a material icon pack on gnome

Edit: Here’s a picture I grabbed of icons done in the adwaita style Gnome uses in case you don’t use linux and aren’t familiar with them. Its not a full sampling, but you get the idea :)

Personally I don’t, I kinda hate old skeuomorphism 😅

Neo skeuomorphism has some neat novelty though.

Edit: this is just my personal aesthetic preference, I don’t begrudge anyone their love of skeuomorphism, or nostalgia for it.

It’s not quite what you’re describing, but neocities probably has some blog templates you could use. I know there’s a webcomic artist who hosts their webcomic on neocities using a template

But it wouldn’t be a blogging specific platform, and I don’t expect there’d be any way to integrate with ActivityPub

Good luck in your search for the right platform!

Damn, I hadn’t heard that, that’s actually really nice to hear!

I’m glad you’re here :) I’m trying to get better at noticing opportunities to post and contribute myself

I’m a bit of a FOSS nerd and care about privacy, but I’m much more an art and design person than I am a technical person.

I use Linux, and I can write some very basic code after learning how in Highschool, but mostly I just like making pretty stuff. Especially anything to-do with UI/UX

Like someone else said, I’m a technical person compared to the average population, but not compared to Lemmy, or the FLOSS community. I left reddit when the api changes happened, and have found I really love the Fediverse and very strongly believe in what it represents

We’re happy you’re here! 😊

Thanks!

What does YNWA stand for/mean?

Bro thats fucking amazing 😂

A desire for approval drives social creatures towards pro-social behaviour, which can positively influence the sucessfulness of a species

I made an HTML page once in elementary school for an elective, and I also don’t get it :)

I just wanna be a part of the conversation lol. But also what the fuck even is this meme 😅

A gtk app for YouTube and/or twitch intended for media PCs would be neat, with controller/remote support and ui optimization for air mice.

I don’t like the ux of kodi very much and trying to get it to play YouTube has been a nightmare 😅 a simple app with a decent user interface would be very welcome

That is a pretty excellent image

That sucks, I’m really sorry man :(
