I did not disappear guys, I was jsut working on something. Thanks to @doitvik for mockup idea, it fits perfectly🪻

@oykun at least new icons have consistency

ok assuming you all calmed down a bit by now; which app icon do you still hate the most? 👀 before / after

@adjohu You understand they are completely different components right?

So much inconsistency in Gmail's header. Some hovers are instant, others animated. Even the background colors differ between icons.

@theajdesign 👍🏼

@_desaina Both

I think I'll stop on gradients. Which one looks better? Horizontal or diagonal gradient?

@MadebyIsaac I am a 'vibe coder' myself, and eventually, I will hire a developer who will help me refine my app's code. As a designer who has been approached by teams that have relied on AI-designed interfaces, I understand what developers will have to go through.

@_desaina ya it's tough now a days. have been in talks with developers and they've seen a lot of founders trying to vibe code 75% of the developers job then paying them low to connect the dots from there

People be saying anything these days. AI will replace developers. AI will replace designers. What I think will happen is that you will end up vibe coding a product with shitty code and get back to devs crying it doesn't work properly. Designers are still needed, devs too.

@ItsAkhilMishra You too 🤛🏼🤛🏼✌🏼

@_desaina Absolute legend

Just a month ago AI was my rival. Today, it is my good friend who takes on difficult challenges: both physical and mental, and makes life easier. I optmised my Contra profile. I built an app. I rasied my prices. I upgraded my design process. And I'm just having fun.

@claudeai Can this be on your next list 🥺 Coming soon on Play Store x.com/i/status/20552…

Six Claude projects that all came from the same question: “why not?”

@pqoqubbw @cursor_ai Glad I'm not the only one hating it

hey @cursor_ai, why did i open the app and see this by default? i didn't want to try this view and i didn't toggle anything - i just updated the app. please just give me the normal IDE experience

@crea_tiffany I want to live like that. But there is a constant thought that doesn't give me a break - that I could be building something right now, that I don't feel productive. Is it me being toxic toward myself?

Sometimes I think we can actually leave the internet world to AI agents, let them collect, steal, and post whatever they think will please the algorithm, and human creators can finally retire from the digital world and learn to live and enjoy their physical lives.

@theajdesign Which one? 😀

@_desaina Teach Us Aina

@humanharshad I had a rough idea, but after planning with Claude I realised it would take me longer than I wanted. Then, I decided to build the simplest MVP. If you're vibe coding, my advice is: always start with design library. Maybe I should post a thread about it

@_desaina same here, except the app. i’m willing to build something. may i know your app design process and workflow?

@dakshpixelup One doesn't diminish the other. Still amazing work!

@_desaina haha thanks! honestly, its a routine now. Last website build had 200+

starting another 40+ page website build will share our process breakdown soon

@stevelauda_ There are lots of working products that look like they descended from the outer world. Software with corporate style 'designed' by engineers should die (not to offend design engineers - they are the best)

There's always a debate of design about beauty vs function. If something is optimized for function/ achieving the JTBD (Jobs to Be Done) for users, it usually looks ugly. UX above UI basically. And when something is optimized for beauty / achieving the peak of aeshtetics, it usually not functional. and I've dedicated myself to make sure that I will always do my best to achieve both through my work along with my team at Blissful.

@FonsMans @samstooff @byoffgrid 😮 Congrats, @samstooff 👏👏👏

Sam Stoof joins Offgrid® Over the past months, @samstooff and I have worked closely together on a number of projects. From day one, it was clear that he brings a rare combination of taste, creativity, and ambition to every project. As @byoffgrid continues to grow, it felt like the right moment to bring Sam on board to help shape the next chapter of the studio. We’re just getting started.

@stevelauda_ I hope you're okay, Steve. Health must be a priority all the time

Heart attack is not only for people that looks unhealthy. It might also attacking people who seemingly look healthy. Check your heart early and see how is your condition.

@humanharshad Dashboard kpi cards

Should I explore more accent colour, or keep the default light and dark?

@MadebyIsaac Nah, I don't want that :)

@_desaina It would be cool to like to be a staple of a design trend/style. But it dies out gets oversaturated within inspiration, then becomes everyone’s design 🤷

realized i don't have 'my style' and probably never will i've always adapted and experimented based on what i see online, in the real world, or what the project needs but there are traces of me. the way i handle type, spacing, layout. subtle things that make it recognizable as my work do you guys have consistent elements in your designs or do you adapt every time?
