Cute!

Feels furry-core lol

That’s certainly a cool thought!

As someone who doesn’t follow this stuff closely, I appreciate the clarification!

Its nice to hear from someone with more hands on experience. Hope you have a good one :)

Aw neat! Thanks for sharing 😊

Big agree. If you’re reading this and could spare a couple bucks for some of the projects you use most often, maybe think about donating 😊

Thanks for the additional context!

Fuck yeah!

That might be an issue with how your client is rendering it. In app via Thunder I’m not having that problem, but it’s good for people to know it says 62%!

That looks awesome! I’m deeply nostalgic for that period of time, material design was the big thing when I was first getting into UI design and I was absolutely in love with it

Klwp and Kwgt are still a blast, that’s what almost all of my stuff is made out of, but iOS has its pros as well :) from what I hear things are progressively getting a little more customizable, if still pretty locked down

At some point I’d like to get a little better at animations so I can make my setup feel a little more alive, but for the time being it’s mostly just static elements

Lol, I’m somewhat similar. I’m a big ui/ux nerd but don’t have professional or academic experience other than some pro-bono work in high-school. But I love tinkering with my phone’s homesceen and other similar little projects. I’m hoping to make a neocites page soon!

This is my previous phone’s homescreen I posted a while back:

I’ve gotten a new phone since then and am still getting it updated to fit properly on a new screen, so right now it looks a little jank 😅 but it’s always interesting to hear how other people feel differently about aesthetics than yourself!

Interesting, thanks for sharing your perspective with me! ☺️

I’m curious how you feel about the GNOME application icons, they sound like they might be up your alley

Right now I generally have a preference for either weird stylized themed stuff I make myself, or very flat stuff like what android currently does for app icons, but I can certainly see the appeal of other stuff :)

I really like the application icons used in Gnome but I really like the consistent line weights and geometry of material symbolic icons so I’m still using a material icon pack on gnome

Edit: Here’s a picture I grabbed of icons done in the adwaita style Gnome uses in case you don’t use linux and aren’t familiar with them. Its not a full sampling, but you get the idea :)

Personally I don’t, I kinda hate old skeuomorphism 😅

Neo skeuomorphism has some neat novelty though.

Edit: this is just my personal aesthetic preference, I don’t begrudge anyone their love of skeuomorphism, or nostalgia for it.
