This website is a really cool alternative to Twitter, I love it! However, I do kind of wish our profiles were just a little bit bigger.

Thanks Shaun! Are you wanting the profile width to be bigger or just the profile info area (i.e. avatar, bio etc)?

I think our entire profile and photos could be bigger, I'm suggesting this because Glue reminds me a little bit of Parler, just with a different color scheme, I don't know if that's what you were going for, but it might scare some users off. I guess I am referring to the width, not so much the hight

Ah ok, I'm not familiar with their UI, but my hope with Glue is to keep the UI simple/focused on the content/timeline However I think as content discovery expands etc, we'll have to provide more "panes" in the UI to show that Also toying with being able to customize or "theme" your profile

Our cover photos also need a photo adjustment tool where users can move the cover photo up and down to reposition it.

I also wanted to know if your company has any plans to get go public or file for an IPO? I feel like it's important for users to know what the goal of the website is in advanced, if possible.

No plans to ever IPO as I think that sets the company with different goals than what's best for the user. Glue is part of Ark (ark.fm) which is a ecosystem of apps around core internet functions: social media/blogging, email/chat, cloud hosting Good idea to outline this goal on Ark! 👍

I meant the entire profile page and newsfeed. I just feel like there's just to much open white space. It would also be cool to have a dark mode like Twitter.

Dark mode +1 👍 What browser/OS do you use? Curious on how the UI is being rendered
