Landing page of the faux Discord thing (I will also add faux microblogging btw)

Orchestrating everything is now as easy as this. And implementing the timeline class wasn't too difficult either: push timelines to a global array in their constructor, and call each timelines' step() function in a requestAnimationFrame loop. Depending on the current state, step will do nothing (pending promise or awaiting user input) or call the current function in the stack.

For this faux Discord? Astro, plus Alpine.js for interactivity

I'm totally not going overboard with this project because my perfectionism demands a good replica

The part I'm the least familiar with is orchestrating all the events. The closest project I once worked on was a desktop interface inspired by the TRON movie built with OpenGL.

I'm once again glad I created a design system because with my components I can replicate Discord and other types of platforms without much extra work. wvrnMlem

I bet it's one of those projects that's going to take a shitload of effort that I'm underestimating right now

I have a really cool idea for my website: a post that doesn't simply describe my gripes with communities on the modern internet, but does so interactively. Has anyone done this before?

I appreciate people responding to the YouTube post. One of the good things about fedi is that people are way more likely to engage in conversations, and do so at a higher quality because there's virtually no character limit stifling your expressibility. neofox_heart

The thing is, I just wanted to complain. I'm aware of all the nuances that make people choose streaming over videos, or real-time platforms over slower ones. That doesn't mean I have to
like this trend, though.
I wonder if there's a tone indicator for this kind of post. I don't think that's all that rare.

Turns out that "redraft" in the Iceshrimp.NET UI really is delete&redraft, and closing the editor without saving will have fatal consequences drgn_woozy

I'm really not happy with the focus on real-time communication nowadays

I joined a forum whose contents are hidden until you make an intro post. I normally avoid places I can't vibe check, but it looked interesting.
Turns out it's more like a gateway in front of the real action, which happens on Discord.
I won't make this mistake twice.

See, there already is another one, and better written than what I started.

I'm starting to think that maybe we don't need yet another "the internet is all about instant gratification, it sucks, look how good the old internet was" post. They pop up all the time anyway. I should focus more on looking forward rather than getting stuck in the past
