Someone made a pretty imo unfairly negative post about Blorp:
I just wanted to take a moment to than you all for your amazing support. I feel very lucky that I’ve made it over a year with very little negativity from my users. Everyone is overwhelmingly polite and patient.
If you have the time, I would love some comments on that post from real users. Even if the comment is politely critical of my app.
There are still many people who haven’t heard of “Blorp” and I would hate for them to get a bad first impression.
I should probably not engage with the haters. Clearly I need a marketing person lol. Maybe I’ll delete this.
Edit: my original reason for making this post was kinda dumb, but I really appreciate all the support in the comments so I don’t delete it
Ignoring this kind of stuff is easier said than done, especially when it concerns something you’re passionate about and have put your heart into. In my experience, it tends to keep nagging in the back of your head even when trying to ignore it.
Yeah its using the automatic dark/light mode from the OS. However, if the app is open or running in the background and the OS switches to dark/light mode, Blorp does not switch theming and I have to kill the app. If I open it afterwards its using the correct theming.
But since it hasn’t really bothered me so far I haven’t felt the urge to open a GitHub issue yet 🙈
I have a possible fix, but it didn’t make it into v1.10.8. But I’m to try and get back into doing weekly releases. I just streamlines my release process. Unfortunately this is the type of bug I have to guess the fix.
No worries, as I said it doesn’t really bug me and most people probably use it in dark mode all the time anyway I would assume 😄
First and foremost you have to look after you and your health! Won’t do you or your app any good if you get burnt out even more. I’d rather live with less frequent updates than an abandoned app.
