Been trying this out secretly for the past few weeks — a "catch-up" timeline page. Did whole bunch of iterations, where I myself is the guinea pig, but this time reaching a point where I just got to share it out in the public.
- NOT final design, still very experimental, only on my local machine
- Instead of algo timeline, this is focused on data-grid-like UI for configuring exactly what I want to see.
- This honestly could be another full-fledged app/client by itself 🫠
After a while, my usage slowly leaning towards this: grouping by authors. Feels refreshing browsing it this way. Faster to scan too.
Oh yeah, this is how it looks like on wider viewport. Kinda email-like.

Not sure where to put these, so experimentally placing them at the top for now, reusing the styles from trending news in Trending page. It's based on the post's `card` so some links are actually "quote posts" 😬

🤫 Quietly dropped on dev site #PhanpySocialDev . Feedback/bug reports welcomed 🙇♂️
Cool to see @laurenshof the first one to post about it https://indieweb.social/@laurenshof/111997146906858162
Attached: 2 images holy shit catch-up just dropped on dev.phanpy.social this is soooo fucking good @[email protected]
some early feedback after playing around for a bit with it:
- its really good
- popular posts that are boosted a lot by multiple of the people you follow get duplicated when you sort by boosted
- when people post a thread, the 2nd+ comment shows as a comment, not as a reply. i get the intent and think its better this way, but it did confuse me for a second the first time i saw it happen
