[BETA] General feedback about the forum

Hey everyone!

Here you can provide your general feedback on the forum, and also see the WIP (work in progress) since some things are still in the lab.

We have a sidebar

On both desktop and mobile :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

You must click the button at the top right, next to our logo, or find the same button on your phone wherever it appears.

That bar allows us to separate the forum from our profile:

And from that space, you can receive notifications for replies, likes, chats, groups, etc.

The sidebar will eventually allow you to choose the order of things, and I hope the “see more” button disappears:

(the “See more” button is a trick, like in the old Sega games) :sweat_smile:

Habemus dark mode

Which we should use at night and without lights around, to prevent the lighting contrast from hurting our eyes.

The dark mode has some irregularities, but it will be fully operational soon.

We are receiving blog comments

But it is likely that we won’t see too many until we improve the interface and I finish the posts with the same style :slight_smile:

For now, it is functional and operational.

We have incorporated a translator

It is in testing for now, but it will connect directly with the DeepL API, which, after we discussed it here in the community, proved to be the best translator in the world.

Its quality is excellent and the systems run super well on our blog and this forum, so we are close to opening ourselves up to the world :orange_heart:

That system costs money; the API usage will add to the operational cost of Criptonautas, but by reducing everything to open-source, I think I can continue to cover it.

We organized the channels

(formerly “categories”)

And we are still working on this, but you should already notice everything much more organized.

From the sidebar you will find some channels, but you can also change the list in which you view the forum:

And see the general structure, with the featured stories (formerly “messages”).

We have an integrated chat

And to enter, you just have to choose the channels from the bar or the button that shows the chats you are currently participating in.

Work in Progress :white_check_mark:

- CSS stylesheets; some things will look bigger than others, and some smaller. Everything is more comfortable from a tablet or PC.
- Having all reactions count as likes for our engagement levels, because for now only likes work (they are working on it, and I suggested a very viable solution)
- Analyze an AI bot that completes, searches, and returns results from our forum.

Why Discourse

Because it is software that allows us infinite possibilities, both in information and in the platform itself.

Since it has existed, it has done nothing but improve and incorporate what really needs to be incorporated. We don’t want a thousand bots and colors, but rather facilities to continue developing what we do.

I worked a lot on this, but so did the Discourse team, so if you’re thinking of donating, maybe one day you can also contribute to its development.

Criptonauta Feedback

Explain in detail what we could modify, how we could do it, and why that would be useful for the rest of the community.

Add screenshots, record a short video, use emojis, and describe everything in a friendly or fun way.

Keep it cool :slight_smile:

Hola! bueno por aca volviendo al ruedo, anduve medio complicado y esto de la mudanza me termino de desestabilizar la operativa jajaja

Aca familiarizandome con el foro.

Lo que puedo comentar es que me gusta mucho mas que antes, y se nota que estuvieron trabajando una banda, porque avanzo un monton, mucho mas practico en muchos sentidos. Sigo sintiendo que hay cosas que mucho no se adaptan a al cosutmbre que traigo de otras plataformas.

Pero eso es algo que se arregla con un poco de trabajo y paciencia.

Aprovecho este medio para agradecer y felicitar a quienes trabajaron mucho en esto, espero poder devolver el trabajo aportando todo lo que pueda de graficos analisis y demas yerbas que nos gusta ver.
