[snarfed] had the occasional recurring thought (again) just now that I've spent most of my IndieWeb career just rebuilding FriendFeed in various forms 😆
#
[snarfed] I expect the Technorati alums here can commiserate

#
[tantek] lol yes. Friendfeed by open source, distributed, and based on open standards

[snarfed] redesigned Bridgy Fed user pages! UI is still not...good...but it's maybe less bad? example: https://fed.brid.gy/web/snarfed.org

#
capjamesg Looks *great*!
#
[snarfed] hah that's definitely too generous but thanks
#
[snarfed] notable functionality change is that there are separate pages for your own activity vs notifs vs your feed (ie people you follow), and most have subscribable feed formats
#
[tantek] [snarfed] can you turn off the text centering on mobile (narrow window) displays? That's always looked very weird/awkward
#
[tantek] text centering of the notifications themselves, below the tabs
#
[tantek] correct it's not new, it's longstanding. shows up on iPhone views of the profile page

#
[aciccarello] [snarfed]++ Nice work. That feels more useful having those separated.
#
Loqi [snarfed] has 37 karma in this channel over the last year (160 in all channels)
#
[aciccarello] One suggestion would be to set the height and width on the avatar images so there isn't a layout shift every time one loads.
