Show HN: Sqwok – A low-cruft, minimalist alternative to Reddit and Twitter
I don't usually like to comment on design when people post early stage products, because I understand that usually development is focused on core features and, as time goes on, the design will change.That being said, I feel like the homepage was overwhelming to the point where my immediate reaction was to back out of using the product, so I feel that it's worth commenting on in this case. I'm not trying to nit pick, but if other people had similar reactions, it could affect user acquisition.There's lots of big bold text and not a lot of use of negative space, so it's really hard to know what to focus on. I feel like a little more vertical space between posts and maybe making the URL smaller or moving it below the post title (or both) could really make the homepage a little less overwhelming with only a few minor changes.
