Reintroducing you to online chat that we have open since July, dR Community Channel. Let me start by showing you a thread about "Synchronous software for devRant people". It has common questions and answers to them, to get you going with this social avenue.

There are 17+ people on our Matrix room plus 14 more through Discord bridge. These numbers keep growing! 🥳

🧵 Read on Fediverse: https://kbin.melroy.org/m/drbboard/...

Boost, leave your suggestions and write-ups there, just so more of us could help and respond. Thank you and have a whale of time!

💬 Chat: https://matrix.to//...

Together, we've finished this 68x78 logo! 🥳 Yeaaaah, plans turned out to be very ambitious, but the end of the event was nearing, so we settled on a hollow version.

Find it on Canvas, as part of our collab: https://devrant.com/collabs/8270045 🔍

👋 Collaborative drawing of devRant logo on Canvas!

Hello, everyone! Wild Matrix room just appeared: https://matrix.to//...

Hopefully, this one will be of more service to the people of devRant wanting to chat. It is bridged with dRCS, our Discord server, to make a faithful transition of subcommunities. Read the room's description for more detail. 🔗

Just at the start of it all, there is one more event you might like: a canvas like "r/place", but where you join via Lemmy. 🐭 I know, I know, Lemmy is only getting traction - but the community is thriving and making their own cool events already!

This one is called "Canvas": it's a fork of Pxls and a place where you can draw pixel art for all to see. The number of pixels replenishing on each person is limited and it takes time, so we REALLY need to gather together and draw this thing until the event ends!!! What thing? We are going to place a DEVRANT LOGO.

Canvas link and reference will be dropped in the comments below. Let's make devRant proud, for ducks' sake! 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆

It is recommended to join the channel to coordinate in real time and enjoy a good chat. 😁

I'm working on a prototype for The New Oil revamped landing page and wanted to know your opinion so far.

Issue for context: https://gitlab.com/thenewoil/...

How do you perceive "clear screens" design paradigm? What could use more improvement?

Continuing the trend of devRant stressball entering places! Previous attempt: https://devrant.com/rants/6483141

Within FSF conference, LibrePlanet 2023, there is a temporary Minetest server. More info and art: https://techhub.social/@vintprox/...

Just drew devRant stressball on public canvas. It's on recently popular Minetest server - mtPlace.

A bunch of cultural swag there, mostly libre and 1337, so I thought it would be wonderful to have a piece of dR as well to liven things up. 😁

Why does it need so much foam, again? It's a landing page, goddammit!

🎄 Happy New Year! 🎄

Made these intros some months ago, but haven't got time for the full dR Hunger Games 3 video. Still, here are your appetizers!

Oh hey, sussy little baka

I, Firefoxo Giovanna, have a dream.

I won't succumb to Manifesto V3.

I just compiled a color palette for devRant-related drawings that anyone can import into GIMP and Inkscape. Already successfully using it for graphics promoting dR Community Matrix (more on that later), hence the name: "drcm-palette".

For reference I used colors produced by "Tailwind CSS 10-color Palette Generator": https://tailwind.simeongriggs.dev/

Play Store's $25 registration fee - for getting PWA listed in their shitty catalogue? Who in the right mind would even jump in this clusterfuck of store to find a *web* app? For all you know, Google, there is such thing as QR codes - and customers can just scan the code (or type in that sweet address). Voila! Boom!!! Ching-ching!

Hello-hello, monopolistic cashgrabage! I came to inform you that your TWA bullshit is unneeded in ETHICAL space. The only ones who would benefit from this thing are permission-hungry publishers. And I'm already sick of this culture where people are put into store bubbles. You can't hide the fact that this data and features you provide, with "native" layer, may be misused in a jiffy - and by big players, no less. Of course, as a vile dumpster that you are, you don't mind it.

Don't even bring up a battery consumption that comes with PWA and browser. This doesn't matter if you use an app for some 2 minutes to tick your mental checkboxes! I'm just sick of app stores and native apps that collect the data without normal warning, and dare to take more than 1 second to fucking load the cached data. Take a lesson or two from PWAs that collect (probably useful) cache, instead of my specs, and load almost instantly.

How could I?
