@holloHollo :hollo: @thisismissemEmelia 👸🏻 Congratulations!

I'm still kind of obsessed with the idea of turning the profile color into a federatable actor property and creating an FEP to let server platforms (and ultimately clients) display people's profiles with visual accents in their chosen color.

It's not MySpace level of customization, but giving people a sense of ownership of "their" space is nice.

Would that be a waste of time or would any other platform want to buy in? @julian@community.nodebb.org @dansup @renchapRenaud Chaput @rimu

@julian@fietkau.socialJulian Fietkau @holloHollo :hollo: @thisismissemEmelia 👸🏻 @julian@community.nodebb.org @dansup @renchapRenaud Chaput It'd need to be two colors - one for light mode and another for dark.

...maybe you'd need a corresponding text color too, for when the accent is used as a button background, etc. A light and a dark mode text color.

...and then again, many clients have multiple themes with different color schemes. It'd be hard to ensure the custom accent looks ok on all of them.
