hello fedi. i am back, it would appear. i was away because you kept on liking my posts too much. this had dire consequences, such as: I kept on checking my notifications and having conversations with all of you wonderful people about all sorts of things. It was great, but it was a bit much

So now I am going to thread about soft forking Phanpy to create a more ADHD-friendly client. Hopefully. The name is Nuffy, because it lets you have enough.

OK, going strong for now. We have the git repo up on our forge: src.pupc.at/nuffy/log/main. This is currently using legit, but we've been wanting to switch to https://char.lt's sorcery git-ssg: char.lt/blog/2026/09/sorcery-repo-viewer/

Anyway, no distractions while we're already generating many many thoughts (stored in-tree) and trying to learn a new codebase... Onwards.

Oh, you want to know what we actually did? Yes.
- Made some corners sharper
- Deleted some chrome-only CSS
- Renamed
- Changed default for opening posts to be the fullscreen ("full-mode") view
- switched to pnpm
- Unread notifications no longer shown

Cya soon. Hopefully our ADHD graces us with more than one day to tick on this, and hopefully it stays sufficiently whimsical (^:

@mei I never used Phanpy, but with my font change I can actually see myself using this, it's pretty nice! heart_cyber

If you want more ideas for changes, I would appreciate the toasts gone.

@j12i hmm unfortunately this is not trivial because of the implementation and also how they're load-bearing UX-wise in a lot of subtler places, but keep em coming

@mei okay this is probably more work than you're willing to take on, but it's making it impossible for me to main Nuffy*: I want my default post privacy set to followers-only, but then all my boosts are followers-only too unless I go into settings each time before boosting, change it, boost, then go into settings again to change it back. Masto's web UI allows me to select the privacy of each individual boost.

*and so many other clients…
