- Comment on TIL: photon is an awesome opinionated web client for Lemmy to help users discover the fediverse. 2 months ago:
It means that design choices and features I implement will follow what I believe to be optimal. I still try to consider what the users think, but the overall organization will prioritize my thought. It sounds narcissistic, but other software often follows this pattern.
It’s why Photon will rarely implement random features if I deem it to be something left to another tool, because my opinion is that it should remain simple unless the feature will significantly improve the user experience.
- Comment on The Tesseract Lemmy app shows a news source ranking from MBFC 3 months ago:
I removed it because I don’t want my app to necessarily depend or be associated with any specific centralized external source, like MBFC. By adding it to my app, I’m implicitly supporting its use, which wasn’t necessarily my goal.
- Comment on I have the weirdest aesthetic preferences 8 months ago:
It is not weird. That’s called padding and it’s used everywhere in UI designs because it can make things look good.
