I boosted this post from @ernest but I would like to highlight one major thing over compliance. Turning a screen reader/adaptive technology on and really figuring out how it works is what we mean when we say that #Accessibility is more than standards. This is a great way to understand our navigational habits as well as some of the current issues that are within existing screen readers. So many others just try to do the bare minimum, but this kind of thing is why we are so dedicated and so loyal to those that show us this kind of care and appreciation! https://kbin.social/m/kbin/p/425385/-/reply/857566#KBin#KBinDesign
@cutitdown@cody Minor correction. In fact, some images (thumbnails for magazines) actually have wrong proportions at the generation level. Anyway, the solution is the same. When I have some time, maybe I'll run my own instance and rewrite it a bit.
It is also possible that the amendments have already been committed by someone and are waiting for review.
@kris Upvotes and downvotes work and do the job, the problem is that they require a disciplined community and admins.
If the ratings do not affect the real ranking, users do not see the point in it, they get irritated and the service slowly but surely dies. It happened with digg, it's happening with its Polish clone, wykop.pl, and it's happened with several other counterparts.
Unfortunately, the natural course of things. The site becomes popular, money begins to appear, this affects the ranking through sponsored content and begins a slow decline.
upvote/downvote meets the needs you write about. If it works as it should. It is less important whether it will be an arrow, stars, hearts or any other object used to illustrate the functionality.
Though maybe thumbs up/down would be a better choice than arrows.
@cody My point was mainly that bundling these two technically and conceptually different interactions into what appears to be the same thing just with a positive or negative sign is not the best UI design wise.
Slowly but forward. Main pages with no content, but they are there. Blog without pagination, but it works. Currently, the font jumping on swap annoys me the most.
@ernest After the mechanics, RWD and content, it would be good to visually diversify the home page a bit, but we'll see how with time. Parallax in the hero/header section is a few minutes of work, but taking the time for more interesting animations can be problematic.
After a few hours spent with #astro, I can say that it is more pleasant to receive than #gatsby or #nuxt. Developer mode starts faster, hot reloading is no problem, build is also faster.
The biggest pain I caused myself, because I chose the standard approach to CSS for this framework. Lack of SASS or other preprocessor hurts a bit. However, I will not give up and will not install any.
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
