Do you like Fluther's design as much as I do?

Asked by longgone (19550points) October 23rd, 2013

I love the simplicity of everything. Relaxes me.

I feel very much at home with it. And although I still have a few wishlist items from back when development was actively continuing, I have been much happier with the stability of the site than I was with the constant overzealous change.

Ahhhh . . . I do. I like it the same way fly of my wasted time likes the design of the clever pitcher plant.

^um, what?

i’m here waaayyyyy too much

and it helps to use a borderline racist asian accent in your head when you read it

I don’t know how much you like it so how can I answer?

Pachy's avatar

I’m accustomed to/comfortable with it.

longgone's avatar

@janbb Hm. More than the sound of my alarm in the morning, less than watching snow fall. I was thinking of other Q&A sites when I asked this, and I don’t think there are any I like as much as Fluther.

I love it! My eyes are sensitive to light, so I’m on contrast mode on my computer. You should see Fluther in opposite colors. It givesit more of a deep-sea theme.

There are some features I’d love to see, but it’s the best UI of any of the social Q&A sites I have used, and that would include nearly all of them.

I LOVE the color scheme, and how the design is so clean and simple. Everything seems to be proportioned and arranged right on the page. It’s easy on the eyes.

I don’t like the Mobil version, but the desktop version is great.

picante's avatar

It is brilliant and addictive. I hope to make it mine some day ;-) The design is very pleasing to the senses and the gamificaiton aspect is perfect. Kudos to the founding fathers and mothers.

ucme's avatar

Almost certainly not, considering you were moved enough to ask a question about it.

johnpowell's avatar

Considering its age it still feels modern. And let us all remember why you hire someone to design the site.

ucme's avatar

^^ Wow, talk about a blank canvas.

longgone's avatar

@ucme Moved enough to answer, though, right? ~

ucme's avatar

@longgone I’m simply pointing out a fact, which doesn’t preclude me from answering.
Maybe you read more into it than you should have.

longgone's avatar

@ucme I’m just kidding. You’re not seriously annoyed, are you?

ucme's avatar

@longgone Of course not, you’d know about it if I was & besides, there’s nowt to be annoyed about.

longgone's avatar

@ucme Ah, good to know.

Blackberry's avatar

Yeah I like it. Not a lot going on and it’s easy to use.

KNOWITALL's avatar

Yes, my eyes are sensitive and some sites like thelearningexperience and reddit are just unorganized and too busy for me. My ocd enjoys the organization of this site as well.

ucme's avatar

@longgone You must be annoyed though, leaving mine as the only answer not lurved, tsk, tsk.

dxs's avatar

@johnpowell I never knew Fluther changed designs. Cool! The older version looks so generic. The new version is much more appealing and addictive.

longgone's avatar

@ucme I do know you too well to believe you’d be concerned about that. I didn’t lurve everyone else’s answer, but I’ll give you some GAs out of the goodness of my heart. Use them well!

longgone's avatar

@johnpowell I couldn’t look at your link before, my phone was being weird – but I have now. Thank you, that was interesting. Kudos to whomever changed it.

longgone's avatar

@dxs I have to try the deep-sea theme!

augustlan's avatar

I love the low-contrast color scheme, with just a little pop from the orangey-red bits. There’s also a good amount of “blank” space. Overall, very restful. My eyes and brain appreciate it!
