The design isn't up to date. But, I sorta liked the idea of keeping it compact but each post and comment thread can open into separate windows if you want to keep something alive while doing something else. What do you think about this approach vs. a normal sized window/resizable window with a custom MacOS experience.

Edit: To be honest, I'll definitely make it resizeable and mybe the tab bar moves to the left side so the main window feels more "Mac App Like"

Awesome, thinking of creating/setting up testflight this week

Alternative font systems is interesting. What font do you have in mind? I could add a settings option to customize fonts and/or font sizes. For the compact feel how many posts would that be per page? On maybe a iPhone 13 Max screen.

And thanks for the feedback!

Thank you for the feedback and kind words!

I only have it pop out for now. But I can add the normal apollo style experience. I can make it an option in settings and/or add a gesture to trigger each. Like a long press gesture for pop out but single tap for the other

Thanks for the feedback! For the comments feed were you referring to the bookmarks? Yeah I really like to save comments and browsing through them as if I were looking through a catalog of quotes on goodreads, having it look like a feed was nice. And about comments looking like posts. I see what you mean, I’ll think of a way to make them feel unique. I’ll need to try out Thunder soon too, I have another idea I haven’t seen yet, about content uploading when I get around to it, I’d wonder what you’d think about it.

[–] pexavc 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That’s what I’ve been thinking. But more often than not I just don’t get any results where Google tends to find the exact posts with the same query. And I guess like others have said, they probably just depend on that. But yeah I felt a feature that is very important like this for Reddit not being fixed is interesting to me.

[–] pexavc 3 points 2 years ago

yes that is true. i just need to build up the confidence in sharing more openly, no pun intended. thank you for responding

[–] pexavc 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Will do. Apart of me feels like I should have my projects vetted by someone before I post onto channels like [email protected]. Do you feel that is necessary usually? Even hoping to get a couple PRs would be like a "stamp of approval" is how I was thinking as well.

[–] pexavc 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah this entire thread made me realize, I am literally getting it out of my system and not having that outlet. The stuff leaks into friendships and being unable to "shoot the shit".

[–] pexavc 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah all of that is right. I think I also hate giving context, but also expect friends to see things from my perspective and understand where I am coming from. All in all it simply has always been a communication issue with incorrect expectations on my part. But, this definitely helps! This comment and most of the thread made me realize, since I don't have friends that align with my passions, I don't get that irl release, in turn forcing it into all conversations. So that second point about the individual subject really fits.

[–] pexavc 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah, I think I easily get too hung up in controlling my environment to match that "bingo card". Thinking its a recipe for growth. Or having a "negative" version of the bingo card and if even one of those clicks with something a friend said, I start to distance or start to "correct/change" it to be removed from the bingo card at least (well more so in a way to share my view of that point and hoping for a different outlook). I will take a look at the speech communities suggestion.

Yeah, I see that third point clearly. I have never been good in dividing my personality between work and social. One would always be the same in the other.
