Welcome to the team!

Hello! I'm writting some guides myself, as I'd rather compile some content that I have verified and is not a copy paste from other places. Still, I'm working, slowly, but working.

You're welcome in here, we can talk on DMs

My comments from someone who doesn't know much about programming yet:

  • Make the "get in touch" button functional
  • The "Language" category could be named "Experience working with:" Or something more professional
  • Search for better logos for the programming languages you know, and make them smaller
  • Many elements have contrast issues, black text on very dark blue backgrounds, etc. That's very very important
  • Cursor doesn't change on top of links

Idea:

  • The landing page could contain some pictures of your best websites or more visually pleasing projects. And if this is a personal website "watchlist" and such are okay, but if it's meant to be a portfolio for companies... Keep it professional

Overall, it was still okay, but needs some polishing

I agree needing a phone number is a dealbreaker, the reasoning I've seen is:

  • It's a core dependency on Signal, and replacing it would require a major overhaul.
  • Serves as an Anti-spam feature
  • Helps with contact discovery among common users

My opinion?

  • 1st statement makes sense but maybe it's somewhat incorrect.
  • 2nd statement is true, Signal has had an increasingly amount of spam since they added "username accounts" linked to number, I can tell myself.
  • 3rd is true, I discovered two guys I knew used it and it was nice. When SMS on signal was still around, I suppose having a phone number also made more sense.

In general, signal has proved they store no data besides the phone number itself, and in court they have only been able to give phone numbers.

Now it's up to privacy oriented users like many here to think about ways of getting a burner phone number for his without their name on it.

But I still agree with your point, they could work on better or more private ways of using Signal.

Finally, here, thanks for helping

It's not all communities but I don't want you to go through all the trouble of re-doing this in each community
