Trying to get in the habit of blogging not quite building in public but inspired by that a little idk tell me how much you think i'm stupid in the comments

Looked at this last night briefly before going to bed and said I'd check it again today but then got distracted by the whole twitter fiasco.

This looks awesome dude way to go :D

I forgot the link was in this thread (didn't bookmark it). It was a real pain trying to find it via google or startpage (until I remembered what thread I was reading last night) I remembered "sociable" but searches for "sociable social media platform" and even "sociable site:news.ycombinator.com" yielded zilch.

Long story short I'd suggest working on your SEO just a little you're competing with "sociable.co". But design+concept are 10/10 as far as I'm concerned, god speed o7

I made some tweaks based on feedback (thank you all again for being gentle I'm new to putting my "designs" out on the web) - animation time drastically shortened - hid "X" button - still linking the blogpost instead of describing what it is succinctly because I'm bad at being concise (although maybe that's a red flag that I won't succeed...) - made it more mobile-friendly (read: made the font-size bigger) and styled inputs crudely, removed filter on blockquote

This is like a commit message not a comment :X

But really I don't know how to express my gratitude I'm over the moon :D

ohno D:

idk how to fix this it's literally a plain <form> and <input> no javascript weirdness or anything hmmm

Cheers!

Thank you. yes the X is useless unless you want to see the animation again which based on the comments no one wanted to see the first time :p

It was much slower originally >_>

Solid advice! I'll try 150ms thanks :)

I am also not a graphics person. Or a programmer. Just a person with a dream and an Internet connection :)

Thanks for positive feedback, someone gets what I was going for :p

Thanks for reading my nonsensical rambles :)

The big X is a holdover from when I was first testing it. I should get rid of that. The <input>s are unstyled I can change that!

Thank you so much

yikes yeah I should compress the JPEGs if they made your phone blow up! sorry about that but thanks for checking it out all the same :)

lol a friend told me my music is very "mysterious" and so I've sort of ran with that creatively but "mystery" in web development is not(!) a good idea

duly noted good sir thank you for the feedback I shall iterate

Hm, fair point. Do you think I should leave placeholder empty?

And the reason I wanted to get it working again wasn't to show off but I actually want to use it for the purpose it was intended: helping me develop this PaaS app idea I've had since 2009. There have been many, many false starts but this time I'm doing it for real worse is better MVP like PG and the rest of y'all have been advocating the entire time but I was too stubborn to see the light.
