Arbor Sync 2020-11-12 === ![](https://pad.nixnet.services/uploads/upload_cb9ea8b16ed40419888acccc06824d44.png) ## Updates - Elizabeth (@elizabUX) - still multi-level filter - first tap is linear w/o siblings - second is whole conversation - third cancels filter - maybe have some kind of timeout to prevent the unnecessary tap here? Probably needs a strong visual cue to prevent confusion - siblings should be visualized somehow - give siblings a thin bar? - use some visual language that indicates the "distance" from the selected message - outline the root of the selected conversation to differentiate it from other convo roots? - knock-knock joke thread as a way to test UX things - Jack (@Astartes) - Working on making the sprig UI load messages more asynchronously - Added support for prefix/suffix text in text fields (not currently in use in sprig) - Chris (@whereswaldon) - Unplanned [lightning talk at Gophercon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3VRYIAYfMI&feature=youtu.be&t=2304) - Also unplanned Q&A with some folks from microsoft about Gio/Arbor (not recorded) - Continued work on Android rich keyboard support for gio - This is hard to work on, as it requires several hours to remember enough of the context to make progress - Working on gio color palette support [here](https://lists.sr.ht/~eliasnaur/gio-patches/patches/14880) - Added paste keyboard shortcuts to desktop sprig - Updated forest to use latest crypto library version from protonmail ## Finances - Monthly Income: ~$9/mo - $1/mo github sponsors of @whereswaldon - ~$8/mo ($2/wk) liberapay sponsors of @whereswaldon - Monthly Expenses: $15.83 - $5/mo digitalocean hosting of aspen.arbor.chat - $2.50/mo arbor.chat domain ($30/yr divided by 12) - $8.33/mo Apple Developer Program membership ($100/yr divided by 12) ## Circling Back to last year Last year we answered these questions: - What makes this project interesting/good in your opinion? - Who are we as a project? What do we want to be? What are our values? What are our answers now? ## Discussion - Arbor Virtual Retreat - December 11th, 2020 - mobile backspace would be nice to press&hold to delete all - macOS spacebar event isn't being processed correctly?!?!?
