Thank you, appreciate it! That sounds like a great idea. We'll definitely consider whether it makes sense to move forward with it. In the meantime, feel free to suggest any colors you'd like. All of the current themes are open for discussion
I love how efficent and diligent the team of Depvana has been and I hope to see where this website goes. A suggestion I have is, could every single entity color be customizable? Like for example, the background color of the website could be customizable, the logo could be color customizable, the public post color, private post color, post color, encrypt color, hyperlink color, superlink color, reply color, account color, tab color, suggest improvement color and other color functionalities could be customizable? Could there be a setting to make all the text a single color as well and have this color be customizable? Like all text being red, or green or blue, etc. Coul pd there be a white mode where everything is as white as possible? Thank you very much. I hope that this comes into plan, thank you very much for the lots of effort put into this website.
Gray line separator either too thick dark, maybe not needed. Blue is too FB bluey try dark and light gray maybe. I'd try to blend in to the X design and layout. It works for capturing audience attention
Yes, but we would love to hear what efforts you would like? Right now mods of a topic can only remove the visibility of a post inside the topic. A placeholder for the post will still be there. People can click on the user and view the original post anyway. This makes it completely transparent what posts are removed and what the content of those are. Hence people can easily evaluate whether mods are abusing or not.
Thank you. Right now topics can be merged into one. This should address any such problems right? If it becomes a problem we will definitely find a solution for it.
I think there should be something to stop people from making duplicate topics
There totally needs to be a heavier weight to posting something. Like you can't just straight up be an Anon and have the ability to click post after spitting out any momentary stream of consciousness. There needs to be some weight to make sure it's best for the person to consider their post within, the best ways express their idea and how it fits within the dialogue etc. When there's some 10 minute long cooldown or whatever, like it or hate it but that makes the person think twice. I don't know what am I getting at either it's way into the AMs right now and the first thing I came across around here was a shizopost pdf diary so you know what you know. But this is an example in itself, a random ass thought that shot itself from the back of the head phrased in whatever way with no clear guide as to like whats and and and anyway ignore this thats how it is on newer websites in terms of the kinds of people that come in and the kinds of attitudes and predispositiond they have
Notice. Feedback not in the category suggests improvements have been moved to meta discussions at https://depvana/topic/181 Cheers,
Thank you, that's a good idea. We will do that. In the meantime I can reassure that Depvana is as privacy respecting as it gets.
I suggest taking the time to create a privacy policy that outlines how you collect, use, and share user data. An anonymous user of another forum very familiar with Depvana regarded its privacy practices as one of its strong points.
Further Debate on this has been placed in topic "User debate on users suggestions" /topic/265
Sounds good. Some form of monetisation of posts where the original poster gets a fair share sound like a reasonable idea. We will definitely think about that.
I think I like the adding a dollar to a post idea the most, I think this provides the most incentive for this website. If there is a vast surplus of revenue with this, I would also suggest funding research into making your product(s) more profitable, maybe by figuring out a way to provide your business or businesses at a lower maintainance cost, so that in the long term more revenue can be made. This could start a cycle of increasing revenue to increase functionality to increase revenue.
Thank you. Some variation of these could be very interesting. We would love if you could go into more precise details about how you would want this feature to work in practice?
Maybe there could be natural selection of topics: if topic hasn't been posted on in x amount of time or years then it is merged back with parent, or user has to pay per ownage of topic. Or maybe further seperation of topics? What if you could add money onto a comment and that comment bumps up to the top of the website? Like if a dollar is added onto a comment then it gets bumped up. Maybe there could be settings for to view the website in different ways like "paidview, voteview, randomview, mixedview" Maybe mixedview could be a balance between votes and paidness, I don't know what the formula to make such a view would be like? maybe (votes/100) + paid? or (votes/x) + paid? And the highest number would bump to the top of the website. This could or might work within topics as well. But it could be expensive to implement any of this and I already appreciate the funding put into this website as it is, it isn't always cheap to make a forum website in my opinion. I suggest that advertisements to be implemented on the website just as a source of income, the two things in my opinion I think that should stay on this website is the anonymity and the simple post structure. So if a vote system or paid system doesn't get added then I will be content and alright with that decision.
Thanks we are honored by your interest. Although nothing set in stone, we probably will move to some form of open source further down the line.
