Reply to comment by asdfasdf in Decentralizing Raddle by ziq

I'm gonna be perfectly blunt with you. The reason nettle didn't work was because the code wasn't up to snuff. I'm no coder but I've spoken to people that are and every one of them told me the same thing. You're still in high school so it's no big deal that you're inexperienced at coding, but there's no point in giving people false promises so that they get hyped for what is essentially vaporware.

You're not ready to code something this complicated while you're still learning. Decentralized software is as complex as it gets.

popularity breeds complacency since you don't have to work for your following

Ha. You have no idea how much work goes into bringing people here (despite your multiple attempts to sabotage those efforts). It's like a full time job just countering all the propaganda.

Who did you ask? ("Yourself" doesn't count.) You can't write a fucking CSS theme.

Emma once told me I'd be able to write a lot more complex stuff than her very soon. I've surprised a lot of people, including professionals with PhDs, with what I've done and said in places like #lisp.

I mean, you're currently talking to me on a forum that uses one of my css themes. They might be hacked together, but they work.

And just so we're clear: emma isn't one of the people I asked, so don't go harassing her again.

Don't pretend you're any good at theming. Ever seen /f/newwave? That was eye hurting material. All your good themes are just hacks around shiningwing's material themes and my various themes.

I don't know much about the computer words, but isn't /f/newwave's theme more an issue of design and colour theory than an issue of coding?

It's not the most pleasant shade of green (unless it's blue rip), but it does function and, like, change the colours, right?

It's just a palette swap of the fresh theme. there are a dozen variations of that theme in bright pastel colors as well as more muted colors; to suit every taste. That particular version (like all the 'pastel' versions) is garish by design.

I'll admit yes, colour theory is always important but there were noticeable problems with the theme itself. Visited links were an almost unreadable shade of grey since ziq forgot to add a:visited to the list of things that should have link colours.

Since I threw all those pastel variations together in a few hours after you and shiningwing insisted all your themes be deleted when you left, and I wanted to replace them with something so all the forums that used them would still have a theme, I don't really get your beef. Just don't use that theme. Or alternatively, don't use this site since you seem to hate everything about it and the code behind it.

EDIT: I just checked and the visited links on that forum are fine on my monitor... It didn't need a:visited.

Last I checked none of my themes use your code or shiningwing's and I really don't care about this conversation.

You're openly ban evading now, btw.
