Youtube embeds are live. Example: #3325
Saweet. Saw the twitter embeds are live, too, not sure when that happened. That's cool. Does Widget.js load only on pages with embedded tweets? Also, is there no websockets here, I just opened console and every second there's some kind of post to the SN graphql API? Also, on this page I noticed that it gets pretty dark. I wonder what, like, Reddit (similar gui/format for comments) does to combat this issue, because it seems like threads could get super deep and then you'd need like a white font.
Anyway, it's busy season for me so I don't have much time to lurk, but just wanted to say what you guys are doing is awesome. Keep it up!

Hey mudl! Twitter embeds were a couple weeks ago. It probably loads on all item pages unless I were to load it dynamically.
is there no websockets here No websockets. Polling is easier and scales better.
Also, on this page I noticed that it gets pretty dark. Yeah it's a bummer. One thing I can do to keep the aesthetic is flip it back to lighter and lighter, then back to darker and darker an so on, but ... otherwise the move will probably be to do the vertical line thing reddit and twitter do. Idk.
it's busy season for me Make sure you leave some time for fun! 🍻
