You and a lot of people.
For some reason I've been postponing changing the icon to a ZZ or some sort of toggle...
But I also want to I plement a day/night mode for the widget. So I've been postponing the first to do both together.
Anyway, the widget does work with dark mode. But then you need to change the site to dark mode.
That "standard phrases and emoticons" would break the whole idea.
But I guarantee the most of the times, the TownSquare in my site is much calmar and friendlier. People having actually interesting conversations.
What you saw was a reflection of the page going FrontPage on HN
I still hope for humanity :)
I believe in it! We just neeed to ignore the idiot ones that just want to draw attention to them selves.
Anyway...Right now it's just crowded because of the Hn post.
But usually it's much calmer, friendlier and interesting.
I've already had a lot of interesting conversation there :)
I swear I have nothing to do with it... :sweat
Specially because they get lot's of attention specially when I can't be on the computer and I lose all the fun!
That is actualy giving some interesting ideas.
I'm now thinking about permanent identities across websites, as well as some "rooms" where you can enter to have a chat...
I'll need to think this through. I don;t want to overcomplicate the project...Part of charm is the simplicity.
I've just finished implementing a telegram plugin to it, so you can get notifications when people are chatting there. :)
Reach out if you wanna know more.
