Как засунуть Мастодонта в холодильник?
Как интегрировать нормальный дизигн в #Mastodont, вот в чём вопрос! 
I spent TWO days on this scrollable panel for my credits screen 
And I overcooked! 
Husband @jbqueru tried KDE again, hated it again. I tried to fix his issue for him, only to find more bad design decisions along the way (added a greek input & lost my US english when I switched to it, because it didn't auto-add it).
KDE is just badly designed. No UI designer person was ever allowed to put their foot down to a developer and tell them how to do things. That's what KDE needs, and it's the same story since 1996. It's just clunky. Yuck.
#photography and #google photos #ui do not mix well...
Who in Google thought it a good idea to add a dark bar across the top of all photos when viewing. 
What’s wrong with these viral typography tips?
I keep seeing posts that show 4 fonts, each with a recommended letter spacing. I get it, it’s a popular format that drives engagement. But as a type designer, I can tell you: following this kind of advice blindly can actually hurt your typography.
Below are 4 strategies for setting letter spacing that will help improve your design work.
This is going to be the main menu in my puzzle game, and there is nothing you can do about it!
Things I'm digging with Mastodon 4.4:
- The ability to zoom in on media. Smooth and elegant
- The language button in the "write" box that lights up in yellow when another language has been automatically detected (I usually write in English or in French and regularly set it wrong first and have to edit the post - as I did on this one, for example)
- The audio controls
- The revamped mobile interface, though I probably won't use it much.
Kudos to the @Mastodon team!
Getting so freaking tired of mystery-meat toggle switches in #UI design.
The button says "kill all puppies."
Does clicking the button kill all puppies, or are all puppies being killed right now, and you desperately need to click the button to stop the puppy slaughter?
There is no way to know, because clicking the button just changes it to say "Stop killing puppies."

Just make it a checkbox, you absolute station wagons.

HELP!?!
I primarily use Mastodon via web app on PC or tablet. I've been doing this for years. However, there is one setting I would really like to use which I haven't been able to find. I don't think it exists yet, unfortunately…
Question: How do I disable the distracting notification symbol?
PS I do like notifications. Likes and boosts make me feel good 
PS2 But I also would like to browse the Fediverse without being distracted by an annoying blueboxed symbol 
I'm in dark system mode. Why the a browser blank page is white?
LisaGUI attempts to be a perfect recreation of the Lisa's iconic 1-bit UI in your browser. I kicked the tires and it seems really well done!

So the court has bailed out of responsibility to make a decision.
The PSNI have bailed out of responsibility to protect those wanting to make the bonfire safe.
If the sub station burns down, and/or people get asbestosis and lung cancer that’s fine, ‘cos Loyalists lit this poisonous bonfire. And 
, the #DUP and #TUV think this is a positive thing for Unionists and Loyalists.
How much has this farce cost the taxpayers of NI already?
How much more will in cost in repairs should the substation be damaged, or should someone die in either hospital because the power is out?
How much will it cost in healthcare for those who develop living cancer?
How much will it cost in Fire Brigade attendance?
And this one is gloating along with his associates in the #DUP and #TUV
A shameful abdication of their responsibility to their entire community and to local business.
I have no faith in the court ruling against future bonfires what are dangerous, as this is at least the third time in recent years they have adjourned a decision, or ruled against controlling it to protect peoples lives.
Of one thing you can be sure - if anyone is injured at this, their family will be suing the Council for not protecting them, and they’ll probably win.

What happens when you get the storytelling from @mwichary be assisted by embedded, scriptable infinitude of Macs from @mihaip? This thread happens… links to individual blog posts below…

MastodonMarcin Wichary (@mwichary@mastodon.online)I wrote something new! It’s a UI design history essay about Mac’s Control Panel, and it uses emulation in some… maybe new and maybe interesting ways?

Le web et les applis distribuées
Je suis tombé récemment sur pleins de vidéos, forum et autres resources qui abordent la même problématique des applications. La grandes questions étant toujours de savoir qui à écrit ces applis, où vont-elles être stockées et exécutées, avec quel degrés de sécurité et de confidentialité. Et l’autre face de la même question : et les données ?
- Super web apps :

- très technique, en gros : comment avoir des applis web dans un environnement manipulable y compris par des IA “agentique”. C’est un peu comme les iframes mais en mieux car l’appli englobante peut contrôlé la où les applis contenues.

C’est extrêmement rafraîchissant de voir toutes ces initiatives et cette créativité !!
Qu’est-ce que cette liste vous inspire ? Qu’est-ce qu’il faudrait ajouter comme projet génial ?
Released Mastodon Bird UI v2.3.0 (stable) for Mastodon v4.4.0 (stable) after over 130 changes and more than 6 months of work. https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/mastodon-bird-ui/releases/tag/2.3.0
There are many updates, but because of my limited time, I've mostly been focusing on keeping it aligned with the main branch rather than adding many of my own features. I hope you like it anyway.
Ever wondered how new
