@a1batross I agree with that. But I also think I can do it. This is literally the only thing I’m going to work on for 3 months straight, all day long. I have the time.

@alex then, well, good luck.

I still recommend you to read AP proposals written by @grishka , he also makes some kind of groups, in more VK-like style than Reddit-like

@grishka alex тоже грозится сделать группы, правда начал с хвоста -- клиентского API.

Ну я ему и сказал, что то что он хочет уже делаешь ты. Он в курсе и оглядывается на твой проект. :)

@a1batross лол, клиентское API. Это то, что я буду делать в последнюю очередь.

@grishka о чём я и сказал. Как слепишь, таким и интерфейс будет, а не наоборот

@a1batross ну на самом деле так тоже неправильно. Сначала ты придумываешь UX, а потом — всё остальное, чтобы его реализовать. Иначе получится десктопный линукс.

@a1batross @grishka I started with the client API first because I am building for users first. If I have to adjust it, I will.

I hope I can communicate with grishka some way. Maybe we can work together.

@alex I've seen projects where people started from building from frontend, users get interested but nothing happens due to different reasons.

That's why I got disappointed with Pixelfed for example. While it looked nice on frontend, it federated poorly which made first impression worse. Maybe I should try it again.

That's just my personal subjective observations with different projects, open source or not. So no offense please.

also retranslating parent post for @grishka :

@a1batross @alex@gleasonator.com

oh, yes, Pixelfed. It does look nice, but last time I tried it, federation felt very much like an afterthought. The UI is built as if every instance is the only one. When you want to like or comment something, it just throws a login form at you.
