Hi Kickscondor, I've seen you on HN before. Love your aesthetic!

I urge everyone to check out Kickscondor's website for some 90's era web design nostalgia

Very kind, flanbiscuit. :) Here's some links that I adore:

https://unimaginable-heights.neocities.org (best home page of the moment)

http://weiweihsu.com (my collaborator - check out her 'comic logs')

Hey Kicks. Love Fraidycat!

The UI could desperately use a search bar across the names of all feeds/sources a user is following.

EDIT: I don't know JS very well yet but I could try to add it myself. I'll take a look at the Fraidycat source.

Very much agree, Maxwell.

Worked on this fork of elasticlunr.js for that purpose: https://github.com/kickscondor/elasticlunr.js

Thanks. :-) I'm happy to hear it and so are my carpal tunnel hands.

I wonder if there's a way to import subscriber list (like the way NewPipe did with youtube account data request) ?

Thank you for this. I was looking for exactly something like this. People post there stuff on all kind of media including blog, twitter, projects, github etc. It's hard to follow someone's work by going through each platform of their choice.

This solves it. Thank you :)

Heyo Kicks! Long time user, love it. One feature would be nice, a possibility to change background colors and such. My eyes cant seem to adapt to the deep blue behind white and i get a headache from it sometimes

Wrong place to put in a ticket i know, but love the project!

If you want to send me a color palette, I'd love to try this! kicks at kickscondor doot com

Thanks for the reply! I'll send you a message once I come up with something palatable (no pun intended)

Looks great. Just installed it. Already provides lots of value. Question, your github grid seems low energy recently. Working on anything cool in secret?

Yep - working on a project called Multiverse, about to come out. Thanks for asking. :relaxed:

If you want a peek, our day-to-day diary is here: https://futureland.tv/glitchyowl/multiverse-diary

Thank you for bringing back the magic of geocities + myspace to the zoomers. That's a complement.

If you're looking for a MySpace experience, you should check out spacehey.com! I think I originally heard about it on HN!

Thanks for making Fraidycat and helping take the web back to the good old RSS days! I especially like the Dire Straits Money for Nothing video-like logo.

I have a question:

Is it possible to make the Fraidycat endpoint on your own server instead of having the browser extension take you to https://fraidyc.at/s/? Or am I totally confused?

It's not possible at the moment. I used to serve the pages directly from the extension - however, this causes the feed fetcher and the web page to run in the same thread - so the UI gets sluggish.

I moved the web page into a 'content script' - meaning injecting it into a normal web page - and that solved the problem.

Fraidycat 2 will allow 'localhost' access. (Later this year.)

Understood, and thank you!

Oh Simon Griffee - ofc. Love your stuff.

Everyone check out https://www.simongriffee.com/ - my fave is the photo section. Your blog is great as well.

I love the colors!
