I've been thinking of sharing my thoughts about the term "designing in the browser" and why I think it should be called "tweaking in the browser" instead.
Would you be interested in such an article?
Yeah, I remember when that term started to come up. The first person I saw it mentioned was @Malarkey
I use to do that back then, not anymore. Big coincidence that yesterday I publish a post talking about that and other past processes I used. https://t.co/uQ1EQ7qfdm

Am I the only one that will paste content into VSCode, only to copy it again, to remove formatting?
I use safari’s address bar or the iMessages text box ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you!
And yes 100% recommend https://t.co/Dfx5HX2MH6. It is very straightforward, and I certainly don’t need a lot. Is just to satisfy my curiosity from time to time.

How old were you when you accepted you’ll never be done “polishing” your personal website? This perpetual redesign is no longer a phase.

@ramiroruiz @darylginn Why is a design never finished?
Design needs to meet business needs, and those evolve and change with time. Same with trends and the people that business is trying to serve.
They’re certainly milestones but I don’t think we should design a piece and forget about it. Is an iterative process.

If you could time travel, will you go to the future or to the past and do you have a year and place to go in your mind?

If you could give some design advice to your younger self, what would it be?
Get comfortable sharing WIP designs sooner. That doesn’t make you a bad designer and the outcome will be better.
Remember that a design is never finished.

Making an interface feel "friendlier" —
Increase text size
Increase corner radius
Soften drop shadows
Add more color
Micro animations on interactions
What else?
Softer color contrast. Like not using 100% black.
Enough space. Custom and personalized error or success messages.

Finally styled some received guestbook entries via Webmention. Next step is to allow entries to be submitted via a form.
Is it only displaying webmentions of the guestbook page?
This is a great idea, congrats!
