RE: Sometimes I want to see resteems. Sometimes I don't.
That would be cool. Then I can add "front-end design" to my resume? 😄
Maybe it would be more "Product Manager" 🙂
I implemented most of the feature today. Unfortunately, it clashed a bit with my "pinned posts" carousel. Fortunately, it highlighted a bug in my "pinned posts" carousel. Very much an edge case, but a bug nonetheless.
I think that most of the features you're implementing should be ported. The percentage RC is available on Hive - a subtle ring around the user's avatar. I believe that the "Hide Resteems" equivalent is available on Blurt although I rarely look at either site to be confident of this.
I have wondered about looking at their codebases on GitHub to see if there's anything they've implemented that would be easy to port across but I don't think there is.
I don't go to either one very often, but I happened to see recently that blocktrades was talking about a new front end called "denser". So, they're apparently forked pretty far away now.
