petermolnar I need some ideas on features to add on my site that are actually useful; otherwise I'm looking at a very empty hacking day on Sunday. Bear in mind that I've deprecated a silly amount of features, because I failed to see their usefulness, but regardless of that, ideas would be welcome.
#
petermolnar Things I had, but not any more: word counters, x minutes to read, auto generated machine tags for images (flickr and google vision api), micropub*, bookmarks, likes (*micropub: I realized I'm writing my entries in front of a computer, so it doesn't really make sense.)

#
[KevinMarks] micropub still makes some sense if you ever want to use other editors
#
petermolnar are there any offline-first, runs offline micropub editors?
#
petermolnar (on the retro front, I have gopher, my RSS feed is served via NNTP, no, I'm not doing a WML version, and I'm not bored enough to code a BBS on telnet yet, but other ideas might be welcome)
#
nolith I'm using micropub for likes, notes, and bookmark. And netlify CMS for articles (when I don't want to spin up my local development version of the website).
#
nolith do you have a local search engine? This could be a nice project

#
jeremycherfas petermolnar Have you thought of something that would surface a random image, because they are all so interesting?
#
jeremycherfas For my taste (only) the light view of the photo gallery could use some work too. The orange font doesn't work, and the white background is maybe a shade too white. But those are very minor things.
#
petermolnar oh, that's my light theme. I have not paid much attention to it, that is a fair point.
#
jeremycherfas Not an entire hackday project though.
#
jeremycherfas I'm still unsure whether I will have time to attend either day.
#
petermolnar nolith: I have a local search engine, yes. It uses SQLite's FTS through PHP.
#
petermolnar jeremycherfas: I think I fixed the text color problem on my gallery view. So much for doing this on Sunday.
#
jeremycherfas Much better, for me. But if you look at Welsh Forest Spirit in gallery view, you see that the caption is wider than the image, and the white shows through. The problem is with the bg-color on .h-entry h3
#
jeremycherfas Sunrine (?) in Hongcun looks different too.
#
jeremycherfas Apologies for nit-picking.

petermolnar I'll take this to -dev, ok?

jeremycherfas Sure.
