YouTube videos now also open in a clutter-free interface inside of Morgenblau.

Soooo much better than the native ui 😮‍💨

If you're reading this in your RSS reader, chances are you’re subscribed to my “Everything” feed.

Since this can clutter your reader up quite a bit (and I don’t want to annoy you), I want to mention that there are also more granular feeds available on my site:

• Posts only
• Notes only
• Photos only
• Races only

I also made changes to the site so that most feed readers pick these up automatically if you just enter my website’s domain into them.

And you should also see the feeds listed below if you’re reading this via RSS (on the “Everything” feed).

The reader becomes usable 🥳

Extraction for feeds without embedded content also works pretty well (see second article that I open in the demo).

Started working on the in-app reader view.

The feed now uses Inertia's deferred props feature to enable skeleton loaders instead of long waiting times.

Favicons for feeds now get properly fetched with the help of this package: github.com/php-feed-io/...

Started with the visual polish today. Always makes me more excited to work on an app when it starts to actually look good.

Oh my. This is spectacular.

A bit of behind the scenes improvements today: Made the feed fetcher more robust (e.g. auto-muting failed feeds after a while). Having Miniflux & FreshRSS as a reference really helped here.

Now I want to learn more about the history of Muji 👀

Feed fetching works. As you can see, I only focused on the backend part of the feature 🙃

Worked a bit more on the feed-io setup from yesterday and changed some AI workflow related tooling.

Reading tip for the day:

Started with the feed fetching part of the application and trying out feed-io.

The YouTube algo didn't disappoint with this recommendation.

First PR on Tangled merged: The first iteration of the “Add Subscription"-Flow is done 🙌

Tangled is now the official home of the Morgenblau repo with GitHub being only a mirror (was inverted before). PRs, issues, etc. all live on ATproto from now on 🌌

• made a few small architectural improvements.

tangled.org/dominik.soci...

Made a couple more improvements to the "Add subscription" flow (like not allowing to accidentally add the same feed twice).

Started to work on the “Add Source” flow. Save to PDS already works, the UI still needs a bit of polish.

The overall layout is coming along nicely.

Pssssst! Are you making an atmosphere landing page and/or refactoring your sign up because of recent ✨discourse✨?

I got what you need.

Morgenblau is now being powered by Laravel + Inertia + React.

Probably worth it's own blog post about the why behind the decision, but the TLDR is: Laravel is just my favorite framework and where I'm most productive in :)

Simple login flow with granular permissions

This was a really inspiring behind-the-scenes read. I only listened to a couple of Lenny's podcast episodes so far, but he seems even more likable now.

Really cool little tool to quickly "draw" a wireframe in plain text, either for Github Issues or to pass on to Claude.

Spent some time collecting and refining my low-level polyglot (rust + go + ts) ATProtocol skills into a repository to make them available (MIT license) to others. Pull requests are welcome. Looking at publishing with vit and getting them on-protocol soon.

attic.photos version 1.0.0-beta.7 is out and it's the most advanced attic yet! 😇 seriously though this 'backup from photos app' rabbit hole goes deeper than I thought and has me making algos dealing with specific apple backend congestion issues and other shenanigans. It's very robust by now though!

Yesterday Bluesky went down. @eurosky.social servers worked but we couldn't communicate as we don't have an app.

Our next step is to build everything we need to operate without Bluesky. We're raising €100,000 to build a European app backend supporting 100k+ users.

Let's do this

CSS nesting is now Baseline 🎉

Write nested selectors directly in CSS — just like Sass, but natively.

.card {
color: black;
&:hover { color: blue; }
.title { font-weight: bold; }
}

No preprocessor needed.

Some interesting techniques in there that work surprisingly well.

Really cool news, especially since it apparently has standard.site support 🥳

Setting Claude's output style to "Explanatory" or even "Learning" is such an improvement over the default style.
