This article is a response to Tim Chambers’ recent writeup, titled The Seven Deadly UX Sins of the Fediverse Web Experience (To Fix). It’s a pretty great read, and I’m writing this not as a rebuttal, but to analyze and expand on the points made.

This is a musing on 7 problems that have been pointed out, with some ideas on what progress has been made to fix them.

    More like the Sean Tilley’s dream custom frontend wish.

    I thought he would talk about text to speech, alternate text, auto describer, voice chat, etc… Instead I read what Sean wants his interactions with SNS to look like. I want even custom profile music+radios! Here’s how my lemmy profile is supposed to sound like!

      Well, no, this was just responding to a critique on UX shortcomings, and highlighting how different efforts could solve various problems.

      It sounds more like you’re talking about one of my previous blog posts, where I was talking about a super-flexible frontend that’s basically a pagebuilder. Make no mistake, I would love to see custom profile music and radios! And I agree that accessibility needs to be way better!
