I don't even have the words for this but
VIBECAMP HAS BEEN AWARDED A $300k GRANT FROM LIGHTCONE COMMONS ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
This is a life changing amount of money for us. We've often have to pause paychecks, which were small to begin with, to make sure the org can pay its bills
What is happening, why is my TL now only @cauliflwr_human , @9chabard , @Actualwebutante and @SurenVynn . I am not complaining but just trying to understand
oh man... are the bots back? If not, hello Roxanna and Darlene. I don't know anyone else with these names, but hey. There is always a first.
A few months ago we introduced the idea of "followers" on Coliven. You have been able to do that for quite some time, but it wasn't easily visible that you can or who the followers of a community are. This week we wanted to redesign the community cards to show this better.
Iteration #14
I removed the word "Manage" and made it a gear icon. It's an established pattern that people are not gonna wonder what's this, but also makes it less ... again I struggle with the exact word, but authoritorian.
Iteration #15
Here I played with different colors and gradients on the community card sections because some people didn't like the yellow "honey" variant. At this point I felt I can iterate on this forever but would move very little. This is something that all visual people learn the hard way at some point, that you need to know when to say "Done" and move on. Btw I only showed #15 iterations here, because these were the most prominent ones, but there were ~47 different versions in total.
