Someone the other day here on HN posted a website where little people (not FisherPrice ones) appeared in the bottom of the site to make the visitors feel more connected. I guess the little arrows here are meant to provide the same idea using some library things that I am not familiar with?

Every webpage deserves to be a place! It’s open source — and do check out the cursor chat too

Love it! Thanks for putting it out there.

There are two apps named Galactic Compass in Apple's App Store now, which I found kind of surprising given how fussy they are about submissions. I was also surprised to find that the other Galactic Compass does not appear to be trying to ride your coat-tails or anything like that. It seems like it may also be someone's "weird side project." I'm happily inspired by this entire situation!
