The new @pixelfed web design I've been working on is so much better in every way.

[anatolegc@piaille.fr]

@kanary @dansup @pixelfed I do agree

[taniagermany@nrw.social]

@dansup @pixelfed looking forward to the web version... missing it!

[worldruined@mastodon.social]

@kanary

that alignment also bothers me.

the left and right sidebars are kind of awkward, too. why is the left so spaced out (logo/nav/profile stuff), but then the right has everything jammed together against the top? it looks so weird and unbalanced.

[ronvanderende@mastodon.nl]

@dansup @pixelfed please keep masonry available for profiles. Artists hate to have their work clipped! In fact I would love a masonry first option on our server echobeach.nl

[jill@mastodon.de]

@dansup @pixelfed Showing "Who to follow" and "Trending" within the right column should be optional. imho

[themelissadamas@mastodon.social]

@dansup @pixelfed hi Dan, I think you placed this somewhere, but I can't find it and I need to figure out what I did with my account info.... I haven't been able to load pixelfed in over 3 wks.

[dansup@mastodon.social]

@themelissadamas @pixelfed log out, then log back in.

this will be fixed in the next app update!

[themelissadamas@mastodon.social]

@dansup @pixelfed will do, thank you!

[worldruined@mastodon.social]

@jill

agreed. I'm not interested in those being pushed on me, either.

[hiphopheaven@mastodon.social]

@ronvanderende @dansup @pixelfed how about the user deciding how they want to view it? I hate masonry

[sharan@metalhead.club]

@dansup Excellent, as always.

[eobet@oldbytes.space]

@dansup @pixelfed but still using Mastodon's old image resolution limitations from several years ago?

[ronvanderende@mastodon.nl]

@hiphopheaven @dansup @pixelfed then you switch to squares.

[scottytrees@mastodon.social]

@dansup but how many people are actually going to use this?

[sturmsucht@mastodon.social]

@ronvanderende @dansup @pixelfed

What Ron said. Masonry is a must have.

[worldruined@mastodon.social]

@ronvanderende

artists should be able to set their preferred/default layout for their own profiles. sometimes they would like their art to be viewed a certain way, if possible!

if followers want to manually override that (maybe they can have an option to "always" override any profile layout, as well as a temporary override toggle), that's fine. but I do think artists should be given the choice to control their profile, at least for the initial viewing.

[moshimotsu@floss.social]

@kanary @dansup @pixelfed I’d go so far as to say that with all that vertical space, it might be better to simply have the full logo+name, like:

PixelFed

Or you could even have the instance URL there!

[moshimotsu@floss.social]

@dansup @pixelfed This is looking sweet! And say what you will about rounded corners, I think they look very nice.

Do you know if there’ll be settings for instance admins to style their instance? Whether it be through color schemes, or specific icons, etc?

[moshimotsu@floss.social]

@eobet @dansup @pixelfed What’s this in reference to?

[moshimotsu@floss.social]

@dansup @pixelfed Oh, and please be doubly-sure that your website is fully screen-reader accessible! I remember your mobile app having lots of screen reader labels. Missing accessibility features are bugs!

I think the American Foundation for the Blind does consulting for web apps on what they need to do to improve accessibility.
