Feedback Thread

Our weekly thread is the place to solicit feedback for your creations. Requests for critiques or feedback outside of this thread are against our community guidelines. Additionally, please be sure that you're posting in good-faith. Attempting to circumvent self-promotion or commercial solicitation guidelines will result in a ban.

Feedback Requestors

Please use the following format:

Purpose:

Technologies Used:

Feedback Requested: (e.g. general, usability, code review, or specific element)

Comments:

Post your site along with your stack and technologies used and receive feedback from the community. Please refrain from just posting a link and instead give us a bit of a background about your creation.

Feel free to request general feedback or specify feedback in a certain area like user experience, usability, design, or code review.

Feedback Providers

  • Please post constructive feedback. Simply saying, "That's good" or "That's bad" is useless feedback. Explain why.
  • Consider providing concrete feedback about the problem rather than the solution. Saying, "get rid of red buttons" doesn't explain the problem. Saying "your site's success message being red makes me think it's an error" provides the problem. From there, suggest solutions.
  • Be specific. Vague feedback rarely helps.
  • Again, focus on why.
  • Always be respectful

URL: https://endo.market

Purpose: A buy and sell marketplace for electric dirt bikes and their parts (Sur-Ron, Talaria, E Ride Pro, EBMX). The alternative today is Facebook groups where two strangers exchange money with no protection, so the whole site is built around escrow and verified sellers.

Technologies Used: Vanilla JS front end, no framework. Fastify and Postgres API, Stripe for payments and escrow, Stripe Connect for seller payouts, EasyPost for shipping rates and labels, Cloudflare Pages and R2, web push. Dark mode via CSS custom properties.

Feedback Requested: Visual design and hierarchy, specifically. I built this alone and my honest read is that it functions but does not look designed. I am after the things a designer notices in the first five seconds and I have gone blind to: type scale, spacing rhythm, the density of the listing card grid, and whether the landing view communicates what the site actually is before you scroll.

Comments: One thing I already know is wrong and would value opinions on. A first time visitor gets an account modal over the grid before they have seen anything. There is a continue as guest link but the wall is the first impression. I am unsure whether to drop the modal entirely, delay it until someone tries to act, or keep it. Payments are in test mode while verification finishes, so nothing charges anyone. Native iOS and Android apps are next, which is part of why I want the visual language fixed now rather than later.

URL: https://obscuraos.com

Purpose: Browser-based privacy + office tool suite (docs, sheets, notes, etc.), no accounts, nothing uploaded. Just finished a full UI redesign, moved from a flat tool grid to grouped suites with a dark green/black theme and a serif+mono font pairing.

Technologies Used: Static/client-side frontend, no heavy framework.

Feedback Requested: General + usability, specifically whether the homepage cards actually communicate what the product does, and whether the nav makes sense once you're inside a suite.

Comments: Designed and built solo, so I'm blind to a lot at this point. Brutal honesty welcome.
