Loving the new design though.
It's not quite an exact count; it might be a little less than the actual amount. It's faster to have Supabase fetch it like that. Do you think I should put “~767 users” instead?

You could floor it to the nearest multiple of 50 or something, and have it displayed as “750+”, I think that would be nice and make sense

Well, it's only off by 1 or 2, so it's not really that big of a deal. I think I'll just put the number without any symbols next to it.

Random question, how's Aviate pronounced? I'm thinking of it as AV8, is that correct?

Spot on!

Now that I think about it, it is kind of weird that Aviate's name is a verb… huh.

I have added a new “report” page: https://aviate.scratchers.tech/report

I just added a new `sep` component. It formats a number with commas.

Somewhere along the way we forgot our goal, to create fun and magical statuses. But when we needed it most aviate came back

NFlex23

Aviate will now show an indicator when you haven't saved your status. It will also make sure you really want to leave the page so you don't end up losing your unsaved work.

No big new features were added in v2, so I think it's about time we had another one!

Dynamic images enable you to embed your status into many websites in the form of an image. The image is dynamically updated and will use your latest status! Here's what one looks like:

Since Scratch doesn't allow external image hosts, you won't be able to use them on Scratch—the example above is just a regular image—but there are still a lot of possibilities! For example, I put mine on my GitHub profile to show off my status.

Head to your dashboard to learn more!

Nice! It looks like emojis don't really work properly:

Thank you! Quoting the dashboard: “Due to technical limitations, emojis are not supported and will be removed.” The image renderer I use—Satori—doesn't support emojis unless you have images for each one. It's weird that they aren't removed from your status though… I'll see what I can do.

I copied the exact emoji in your status and put it in mine, and it removes it just fine. It's very odd.

Oh, sorry, I missed that part! Could it be about this emoji being generated through a component?

{if {eq {random 1 3} 1} "bear emoji" {if {eq {random 1 2} 1} "ice bear emoji" "panda bear emoji"} }

Yeah, one of those emojis was probably unsupported by the library I was using, but it should be fixed now. I'm using something different.

That will copy your ocular status so you can reuse parts of it.

Can you post a gif or something showing what's happening?

You can make something that creates a project for each first-time status and update its thumbnail for each edit

Like {“success”:true,“username”:“happex”,“status”:“…”} would become {“success”:true,“username”:“happex”,“status”:“…”,“id”:123456789}, and then your script would somehow update the 123456789's thumbnail on save

Lol no more aviate
