Design

"Whimsical" is perhaps not a quite fitting word for the mad-scientist-approach to what a calendar can be in uCal, but it's definitely *something*. 

Mainly how time—something we experience in minuscule different UI paradigms, impart a whole other *feeling* when experiences through a completely different UI paradigm:

If you like the whimsical app details I’ve been sharing over the past two weeks—here and in /design —I so very much would love your nomination this week:

What’s your favorite tiny overlooked UX treat in an app you use?

Not a lot of uplifting things in the news — rarely ever is seems like — but the format you take your news in doesn't have be a slog. Take for example the app Roulette (please! 🥁):

Just add your preferred news sources, and the roulette of whimsy will take care of distribution

(sound on for this one)

I love the iOS app 'Idle' from twelve.xyz. Billed as "a handmade, curated experience of finding inspiration in idleness.", it'll give you creative prompts with none of the gamification bullsh*t, just a whimsical gyro enabled way to slide items around your screen.

You guys have a lot of apps or do you just have the regular amount like I do?

"Eigenquestions" is a useful technique to cut through to the essence of design problems

how do you feel about post directly to profile? it allows people to post without ever having to have anyone see it on their feed

How to so onboarding and convert new users to paying customers

the numbers on polymarket's buttons have always been confusing to me.

it presents the price per outcome you want to bet, which is the least useful information, imho.

i always feel embarrassed by how much time it takes to realize that the price per bet corresponds to the percent of that outcome (i.e. 64¢ means 64% odds).

i also have no desire to think about betting in terms of "shares." i just want to bet $100 on yes or no and quickly determine how much i'd make if i win.

which of these button patterns accomplishes that?

The UX of betting is pretty bad imo

No matter how many times I ask friends to explain it to me, I can’t get myself to intuitively understand what -220 means

browsing with persisted sessions on a json canvas in /obsidian is giving me some *real* ideas...

(and imo this canvas feature is very under explored)

Infinite canvas is the best UX meta of the past few years

I love riffing with Dot to generate ideas

but sometimes it is a little *too* proactive 🥲
