I’m test-driving a new design for my blog and need your feedback!

[elmiko@fosstodon.org]

@Larvitz i like them both, the colors on the old is a little easier on my eyes, and i like how you've cleaned up the styling every so slightly on the new.

[def@hachyderm.io]

@Larvitz They're both good, but I like the new one more. Especially the improved contrast and thus better readability.
One thing I personally would reconsider is the combination of blue and green. Blue links turn green. Green elements next to blue icons. Might be just my personal preference though

[phetsig@troet.cafe]

@Larvitz
The new one offers better readability thanks to the contrast, looks "techier", but a little more sterile due to the consolish (and just a little too big) title font (the only thing I like more about the old design).

Old one +1
(new one distracts from content)

@Larvitz the titles on the new one are too big, other than that looks ok

[larvitz@burningboard.net]

@_hic_haec_hoc Thanks for the feedback. Did another one with smaller titles, less monospace fonts and more consistent link colors ..

@Larvitz prefer the new one, but personally I'm not a fan of dark themes in general.

[phetsig@troet.cafe]

@Larvitz
Love it!

[passthejoe@snac.bsd.cafe]

Both are good, but I prefer the newer one -- I like the darker look of the new one (as opposed to the lighter blue type on darker blue-green background), and the new fonts catch my eye

[cavallo_pazzo@toot.community]

@Larvitz I prefer the new one, because of better readability for me.
Another thing, some article's first picture overflow its box on mobile, I experienced this with both versions (old, new).

@Larvitz@burningboard.net I forgot about the design poll when I visited your site. Both designs are clear. What are the biggest changes you did?

I actually got lost reading your shell tricks. There were a few I didn't know about so thanks for sharing.

Very useful. Must not forget to use them.

@Larvitz

I prefer a light design. ️

[tux@burningboard.net]

@Larvitz

there is also someone at work who sets everything to dark mode, terrible really terrible

@Larvitz das neue Design gefällt mir persönlich besser.

[larvitz@burningboard.net]

@314rate Danke. Um das Bilder-Handling kümmere ich mich gerade. Das macht mich wahnsinnig. Bisher geht es bei unterschiedlichen Versuchen das zu beheben einfach nur auf unterschiedliche Arten kaputt
