this is so healing of a website. I feel as if I have gotten fully rested. I adoreeeee the way everything is dithered, and the texture of the fish. Really really rocks

still trying to decide how I feel about the new UI on here. I actually really like it aesthetically, but for some reason I also find it more overwhelming/exhausting to look at, and I'm finding myself less excited to look thru everyone's updates unfortunately :( maybe somebody who knows more about web design might know why it's having that effect... also maybe it's just me, idk

I've noticed it depends heavily on the number of pages someone updates all at once. If they update 2 or 3 or 4 it's amazing because I can see what all of them are. If they update a a lot more then that, then it becomes overwhelming because of how much space it takes up.

I like the simplistic style. Just wish it had more color it feels so odd having so much white everywhere

Interesting, I thought it actually has more color then the old layout? Strange...

ribozone shared a stylesheet which makes the update images smaller and the comments background back to white! highly recommend > https://ribo.zone/free/snippets/userstyles

@stoneroad maybe I’m misremembering? I haven’t found screenshots of the old one to compare it to but I remember there being color around account usernames.. I might be wrong

I still don't totally like the new update, I'm way less likely to browse global activity for new sites to enjoy. it's just too overwhelming :( which I guess on the flip side is good because I'm spending less time online

I find pros and cons with it. Sometimes sites will update like a dozen pages all at once (guilty as charged), and then it becomes really overwhelming. But under the majority of circumstances, I feel I click on more pages then before because I can see all of the pages someone updated rather then just the featured one.

I've sort of already trained myself to stop looking at sites when they become overwhelming. I mean it was one of the ways that I stopped using social media. unfortunately I'm not interested in going back 🥲 hopefully we'll get the option of themes or something. a lot of the problem I have with it is the colors chosen.

interesting? Do you have any thoughts on colors you would have chosen instead or what changes you would make?

I don't know what colors I would have chosen but I have been thinking about it the last few days, and I think my problem with it is the color contrast, but how widely they contrast. The red borders around profile pages when you update your site draws your eyes, but then the low contrast behind comments is weird. I think I would bind full comment threads, not just the replies.

also the colors don't really mesh very well with the heading colors. overall I feel like my eyes are just darting back and forth trying to figure out what to focus on, so it doesn't feel like I'm fluidly reading comment to comment, update to update, etc. it's just too much effort to look at the site now.
