This is very nice, it reminds me a bit of aether.app which I think has been abandoned (though it's open source so anyone could fork it).
I think it would be very valuable if you could create subthreads on each thread. Right now you have a huge blank space besides the chat which just doesn't make much sense.
I love the design of the app, feels old school but very nice. It's also very fast. I couldn't find the source code though, is it a proprietary platform? I know it's not decentralised so that's a bit disappointing. But looks good!
- holler 5y agoThank you, I appreciate it! The site isn't open source, although I've thought maybe parts of it could be later. The reason for the blank space is I originally was coming from an angle of news consumption where you could see the meta information of an article, images, summary, etc, alongside a live conversation such as here: https://sqwok.im/p/Q8OggZt9zQX4iA https://sqwok.im/p/Q8OggZt9zQX4iA But when a post is just text it doesn't make as much sense... maybe it could auto calibrate for text only posts? Need to think about it, but thank you for the feedback!
- themanmaran 5y agoHey, if it's gonna stay closed source for the immediate future, could you add a bug report option somewhere? Normally I would just raise an issue. Seems to be some weird behavior with swipe gestures on a laptop. I can't swipe to navigate forward or back on a page. And if I pinch to zoom, I can't really move the page around very well.
- holler 5y agoYes let me think about how/where to do that. Any suggestion? I guess I could use github?
- themanmaran 5y agoYea I suppose GitHub works. I've seen people create "tracking repos" since there's a big community on GitHub. But those are usually just opensourced somewhere else (gitlab, bitbucket, etc.) You could also just drop in something like Sentry.io. You can add a Feedback button that emails/slack messages you.
- holler 5y agoOk yeah maybe that's better to just add a feedback button? That should be easy
