Monday is a State of Mind (I Polished the UI Instead of Coding Comments) 🎨
by @digital.black · · 0 0
The journey to Mars is long, and today I only fixed the carpet in the spaceship. But the carpet looks 🤩.
Today felt like a Monday, even though it wasn’t. You know the feeling: the most important, difficult task (like, say, building the actual Comment system or a Contact Form) sits there, staring at you.
So, I did what any sane indie hacker does: I polished the beautiful parts.
I spent the day as a pixel janitor:
- Post Page : Less gray, more contrast. The 'More from Author' block now actually works (it's not just a placeholder, I swear!).
- Creator Profile: Reduced text clutter, simplified layout. More shine, less noise.
Does this bring us closer to a revolutionary creator economy? Marginally. Do users care about a working 'More from Author' block more than Comments? Absolutely not.
But the UI is the face of the revolution, and the face must be clean.
The Loytz Space Program Status:
Goal: Mars (Fair Distribution Algorithm).
Today's Progress: Took a small step towards a more elegant, shinier post page.
Next Step: Hopefully, stop dreaming about space and start building the rocket (i.e., the Comment system).
P.S. Yes, if you still want to contact me, join the Discord. The Contact Form can wait until next Monday (which will probably be on a Wednesday).
