than the devs***

Dont feel like its your fault! ive ./gradlew run'd almost every compose desktop repo on github and they all have this. its something that i think jetbrains should look into instead than devs shipping desktop apps - seems like the most evident way to easily remove cruft

i should probably test this on android. i bet its probably the best bsky app for android

KMP devs please hear my cry and dont just say "this isnt a priority because all apps are huge in 2026 anyways" on the kotlin slack please

also, the binaries for any compose desktop app is going to be 90+ mb, no matter what you do.

they'll have to bundle in a renderer, a jvm, etc. all of these are really non-negotiable. but theres a 36mb jar file in every compose app for just....icons?

still interesting to see though. ive become a bit less interested in compose desktop as i still see a lot of performance hits whenever i test on lower systems, which is a shame, because i think jetpack compose is declarative UI done right, and kotlin is such a good language

found my bsky password for this. really silky smooth after 5 seconds of initial loading (jvm warmup?). somehow video playback works despite not using libvlcj, which i thought was impossible but im not a java person so i wouldnt know. this is so interesting and cool

crossposter nuked this image quality please remind me to just post everything manually

the new Firefox design is such a tragedy because I remember how old firefox was exceptionally designed. even down to the dev tools, places where most people literally do not care about color and gradients, you can tell that someone on the team DID care

nice graphics everywhere outside. if you know where to look

on the previous UI i tried to make the toolbar a bit more colorful with some inspiration from this dribbble concept, but it never felt "right”, and made it stick out from every other macOS app in ways that I didn’t want to

i actually like the way toolbars look like in macOS 26. the big-sur era made everything too monochrome. i can actually put some color with a .glass or a .borderedProminent buttonStyle with these

Like this isnt *that* much memory, considering its jvm

I become more bullish on compose for desktop every day

its the mug scene from The Usual Suspects but "Kobayashi" has been replaced with "i like to eat food"

publishing this under GPL so anyone can use it if they're in a situation where a friend has lied to you about liking food.

does calling anything from even just around a decade ago "retro" really not get tiring to people like god damn dawg

Really really really looking forward to this project with more improvements on desktop

I have a soft spot for kotlin and jetpack compose on desktop even though i have zero experience with them
