Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Here is the goal:
Craft new look for disroot.org website.
What do you think of this?
What should be done?
Here is what muppeth said: "New website is something we need after almost 10 years of the same website and it's something antilopa wanted to focus on" and "Website look is mainly up to @antilopa"
And antilopa: "This is something I have started looking into and think I can get somewhere with this year."
Ideas of tasks:
I wonder if this one is needed and to what degree. I think the idea of the goal is to refresh the website's looks, unify the theme (website and blog for example which are different currently) and improve / update texts on the website. I dont know at this moment what could we ask from the community about it.
My idea for community was to ask if they're things they may have noticed we have not. For example they may find an information hard to find whereas we're so used to our website that we find it in no time.
I also think it's time for a change. And agree with both @meaz and @muppeth ideas. Maybe, as @meaz also commented, we're too used to it, which lead us to lose sight of things that can be improved.
This two points are basically the same.
As for the ideas for new visuals I have been experimenting with some images I can share here. I would start by changing the images on the current website to low res ones and the next step would be to look at what other element of the website can be changed. I am happy with the color and resolution reduction. But I find it hard to find CC suitable images for the various concepts I have (I'm using commons.wikimedia ). The examples below are not in anyway fully comprehensive but just to give an idea of the directions I'm exploring.
I'm loving this approach with lower resolution/de-saturated imagery. Antilopa's example made me think, " The content the site clearly should take precedence over the quality of the imagery, which in itself, shouldn't attempt to take all the attention." A change in resolution and saturation can also be a whole other aspect that sets things apart from everyone else. When done well it can help serve the site in very beneficial ways people remember easier.
about concept:
i really like the style of our searx instance giving you super quick access to all services.
this is good for establish user.
on the downside it provides less information for a first lander.
nontheless it's worth thinking about making the main landing page with quick access to services in mind.
(and mobile view)
I would divide this goals into the following issues:
