I think that’s track 3.

Defra terms I’ve heard this week that could be metal band names: Slaughterhouse Request (death metal, album art censored on Spotify) Squirrel Contraception (angular grindcore with lots of yelping vocals) Goat Survey (folk horror inflected doom metal, early Sabbath vibes).

👋 Hi, I'm new here from that other place that shall not be named. Sharing a recent landing page hero web design challenge I completed. These are all made in Sketch but I have spent a lot of time this year building in Webflow and have almost completed my second project there. #designsky

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the Bluesky team and how impressive what they’re doing is? They’re a team of 20 who are adding a million users a day right now and scaling up with aplomb! Incredible [contains quote post or other embedded content]

👋 Also back, trying to get everything set up properly since there is so much customization. Definitely keen to find more Marketing and tech folks.

Good evening Bluesky 🦋 I've just deployed some updates to blueview.app. A new stats section and more fine grained controls on follower charts. I've also updated the starter packs so the search should be faster now. Thanks for giving it a go! 🙂 More features in the works! Sleep now 😴

I got to collaborate with @johnnyjjones.bsky.social and friends again and as usual they exceeded all expectations [contains quote post or other embedded content]

a major problem with bluesky is that i can offhandedly remark "i hate drawing, its too hard" and then a sweet old lady will gently encourage me and kindly point me to some useful resources to get started drawing and i dont know what to do with myself

My wife uses this camera and it’s nice - no cam link necessary as it has a usb-c output mode. Pretty slick.

I use this one. It works well for tight spaces https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1369132-REG/sigma_402965_16mm_f_1_4_dc_dn.html

🙏 I always wondered how rocks stayed warm, now I know. 👍🧥

thank you! & thank you to seagulls, who could not possibly care less about my troubles

my mom bought these when I was a kid, it's great fun to have them for the nostalgia

Now with so many folks streaming into BlueSky, the real question is "are there many #UX folk here?" I've been poking around, searching and not really noticing much. Am I wrong? Is there more UX around here than first appears?

I’ve only been here for 5 minutes, but I fully agree. The user experience is so much better than alternatives too.

I’ll probably ask this again when I have more followers, but: What are the most ‘graphic designery’ games out there? Bold, simple, accessible. Monument Valley is an example, but it was made by a design studio after all.
