Webdesign people! Where are you finding inspiration these days? Dribbble is full of dead slop and Awwwards features sites that look identical since 2018.

@mina @fabio @Pyrogenesis I had what seemed an unbeatable feeling of "It could be both a #good thing and a #scam at the same time" but

1/ Mina with Fabio's help made it much more obvious that Fabio's working position saying his working experience is far better than guessing!

AND also

2/ yes money makes everyone tend to go for more rather than less (#deliberate #design for profit which makes things uneven all the time) since stability of #money / #banks / #donations is not a guarantee.

We're excited to share the results from Mastodon's first #DiscoveryWeek!

In case you missed it, earlier this year our Head of Design @imanijoy arranged a week of workshops and surveys to get to know you, learn about your needs and wants, and discover how you're using (and want to use) Mastodon.

This week was tremendously helpful for us, and we're grateful to everyone who participated.

Here's what we learned:

Michael Thonet: Wie sein Kaffeehaus-Stuhl die Welt eroberte

Michael Thonet perfektionierte die "Bugholz-Methode" und verlieh seinen Möbeln zeitlose Leichtigkeit. Vor gut 200 Jahren schuf er mit dem Wiener Kaffeehaus-Stuhl nicht nur eine Design-Ikone, sondern auch ein Vorbild für IKEA & Co.

Hey Fediverse! After leaving Instagram behind, I'm making this my new home. Time for a proper #introduction. #neuhier

I'm Fabian, a graphic designer and artist from Leipzig, Germany. I'll be sharing projects like books, prints, a board game system I'm tinkering with, and some journal entries from my archive.

I also speak German and a bit of Korean, but will mostly post in English.

Glad to be here! :)

💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🏰🛡️ In 1315 #Scotland's King Robert the Bruce decided to lay siege to #England's Carlisle Castle but retreated after just 11 days.

The siege is a prime example of how #medieval European #castles could stand firm against enemy onslaughts with concentric walls, round flanking towers, and active gatehouse defenses.

Zum Welttag des Designs hat euch letztes Jahr das Werk von Praktikantin Nina sehr erfreut. Inzwischen ist sie Werkstudentin, aber sie hat uns trotzdem nochmal ausgeholfen ;-)
Der Tag wurde 2006 vom "American Institute of Graphic Arts" initiiert und soll darauf aufmerksam machen, was hinter dem Konzept des Designs steht – nämlich die Vereinigung von Kunst und Handwerk.

Wo sich heute das #HumboldtForum befindet, stand bis 2008 der #PalastderRepublik. Er war bis 1989 ... auch eine Stätte der #Alltagskultur mit modernem #Design, #Kunst, #Theater und #Diskothek, #Restaurants und #Cafés.

Viele Menschen erinnern sich bis heute begeistert an die kulturelle Zwischennutzung im entkernten Gebäude Anfang der 2000er Jahre.
Ab 2006 erfolgte der durch den #Bundestag beschlossene Abriss.

@annyhartmann @inch der Wiederspruch entsteht doch nur, wenn alles auf gleicher Ebene operiert. Wenn politisches von privaten getrennt wird, kann Kapitalismus im privaten operieren. Im politischen aber begegnen sich verschiedene unter Gleichrangigkeit. Kapitalismus spielt dann im politischen keine Rolle und kann dort auch keinen Schaden anrichten.

If you don’t have the resources to write and understand the code yourself, you don’t have the resources to maintain it either.

Any monkey with a keyboard can write code. Writing code has never been hard. People were churning out crappy code en masse way before generative AI and LLMs. I know because I’ve seen it, I’ve had to work with it, and I no doubt wrote (and continue to write) my share of it.

What’s never been easy, and what remains difficult, is figuring out the right problem to solve, solving it elegantly, and doing so in a way that’s maintainable and sustainable given your means.

Code is not an artefact, code is a machine. Code is either a living thing or it is dead and decaying. You don’t just write code and you’re done. It’s a perpetual first draft that you constantly iterate on, and, depending on what it does and how much of that has to do with meeting the evolving needs of the people it serves, it may never be done. With occasional exceptions (perhaps? maybe?) for well-defined and narrowly-scoped tools, done code is dead code.

So much of what we call “writing” code is actually changing, iterating on, investigating issues with, fixing, and improving code. And to do that you must not only understand the problem you’re solving but also how you’re solving it (or how you thought you were solving it) through the code you’ve already written and the code you still have to write.

So it should come as no surprise that one of the hardest things in development is understanding someone else’s code, let alone fixing it when something doesn’t work as it should. Because it’s not about knowing this programming language or that (learning a programming language is the easiest part of coding), or this framework or that, or even knowing this design pattern or that (although all of these are important prerequisites for comprehension) but understanding what was going on in someone else’s head when they wrote the code the way they wrote it to solve a particular problem.

It frankly boggles my mind that some people are advocating for automating the easy part (writing code) by exponentially scaling the difficult part (understanding how exactly someone else – in this case, a junior dev who knows all the hows of things but none of the whys – decided to solve the problem). It is, to borrow a technical term, ass-backwards.

They might as well call vibe coding duct-tape-driven development or technical debt as a service.

🤷‍♂️

Sometime around the 2020 era, we lost the right to be mediocre at things we love.

No longer can you just bake bread...you must start a sourdough side hustle lol. Wanna stay fit and go jogging or running? Nah, you gotta optimize your biometrics for a marathon. What my point is that every hobby has been enshittified and gentrified into a brand opportunity.

This strange infatuation with optimization culture is killing the human spirit.

So this new year, starting tomorrow, one of my resolutions is to do something bad but fun. Maybe I write a terrible poem. I like to draw and paint, so perhaps I will draw a horse that looks like a table or sing off-key in the showers or in front of my loved ones. The algorithm driving the mainstream social media wants me to be a polished product, but my humanity lives in these messy, unoptimized, cringe-inducing joyful failures.

I will try to reclaim the right to be an amateur. Will you join me?

help needed, english below:
"Die Sticker gehen zur Neige" wäre leicht untertrieben.

Zwecks Neuauflage:
Was für infos sollten auf die Sticker? QR Codes? (Ich finde urls schon nicht schön...)
Wie vermittelt man leichter was das ist?
Ich bin noch immer Fan vom Spruch: No Musk, No Zuck, No AI, No Algorithn - NO BULLSHIT

---

To say that the stickers are running low would be an understatement.

For the purpose of reprinting:
What kind of information should be on the stickers? QR codes? (I don't even like the URLs on it...)
How can we convey what this is more easily?
I'm still a fan of the sentence: No Musk, No Zuck, No AI, No Algorithm - NO BULLSHIT
