The subpage of followed channels, users and tags is still missing, but the general idea is already visible. GIF is animated.
I also updated the preview: https://bit.ly/3NRFQrH

TaraSkywalker,

@cody this design is delightful

The first version of the user account settings layout. View with icons from the Tabler family instead of Font Awesome. Due to availability, license, number of icons and their variants, all existing icons will be replaced with Tabler icons.

By the way, I would like to add that what I "draw" here does not have a 1:1 reference to the work of the author of the site, because these are only my suggestions. It doesn't have to affect at all. It also doesn't mean that I'm right and everything is logical :) I just decided to help in the development of the project, but slightly from the side. Unfortunately, open source projects tend to live as long as the developer (usually one person) is motivated. And motivations are easy to burn out, especially in this type of projects.

Font Awesome vs Feather Icons. CC BY 4.0 vs. MIT. Pack of 2020 icons vs 287. Despite the advantage expressed in numbers, I do not have feelings for Font Awesome. What's better? Or maybe looking at things like icons is just a designer's whim?

@odddev Thanks. I know Tabler but completely forgot about it, and most of the listings now refer to icon search engines, icon selling platforms, not icon families. I guess I need to do some research after years and refresh this topic.

@cody

fonts are personal choices too for a lot of people

And a kbin icon in to complete the set. The mesh is far from perfect and the model itself is ridiculously simple, so there's no point in sharing the .blend file.

I added a footer in aside on mock-ups. It may not look the prettiest, but repositioning is required due to the infinite scroll option.

logo in for later use. Yes, I know that the colors do not correspond to the original, but the pattern itself is also an unofficial proposal.

Maybe after years and a few small attempts I will check if I can handle WebGL.

@cody r/fediverse also has a pretty cool render in the cover btw

@ernest I only use blender to create web assets, branding, icons, etc. I'm a rather weak artist. I planned to expand my skills with animation, but it ended on the basics from years ago. In the fall I even bought an RTX4090 for this purpose, but it is still hanging in the PC unused.

The first approach to "warehouses", channels, rooms. Personally, I don't like the solutions seen on , but people seem to like them. And yet, the user interface is for people, not for themselves. At least to a large extent.

While reddit's layout isn't fully polished (many subreddit-related modules and pages still use the old layout), I decided to use a drop-down menu that I don't like and redesign it a bit.

@cody oh wow that is looking great! I didn't realize there was so much active development on kbin!

Reddit is awkward and the censorship is offputting.

Unfortunately, the information funnel is a matter that affects all media, the Internet, press, television, etc. Even if the operator does not block anything, a person is not able to assimilate all information. And what if we add information noise and disinformation to this.

In the case of a narrow topic such as , there is also the issue of its low popularity. There are simply no users on the Polish instance who could at least point out the mistakes made. And since man is constantly learning, or rather should be learning, I decided to move to international waters.

In the Polish instance I was spamming as grumpydev @grumpyDev
