Hi @pitboy,
Thanks for the review, it's a nice read. Always a fan of reading what we can do better, so I appreciate your recommendations.
Besides Hive Quello can open their platform for all of the people. At this moment there is no signup option, and only Hive users can log in using Hivesigner. If we open this for everyone we will open a big door for the Hive community. When new users will see the dollar($) sign beneath all the questions and answers, they will be like - What the hell is going on here? and they may forget about using other Q&A sites.
And they will search about Hive on Google, and may read my Hive related articles as well!
We've recently updated this to allow for a keychain, users have the ability to sign in via keychain or Hive signer now 🎉
Nice point on the dollar vs Hive icon, it's something that we emphasized in the wallet (lead with dollars and what people know) and potentially this is a better way to emphasize this too. The beauty of being small and new is how quickly you can make adjustments and experiment, so something we'll look at adjusting.
After the first login, Quello can show a window for choosing favorite topics. Or users can just leap that window using the ''skip'' button.
100%, on the roadmap for when sign up is added to Quello, going to work on a complete onboarding experience as part of the signup work. We've started the process of claiming accounts so when we have accumulated enough we'll be introducing sign up to Quello.
If the Quello team decides to open it for all, they can use ''Sign up using Google and Facebook'' besides email. They will be able to do everything except for earning. To be eligible for earning money they need a Hive account.
This is definitely something to consider, will likely keep a Hive only approach for a period of time and look at this as a phase 2 following initial our initial sign up.
The website template is fine. But It's hard to read, text color looks faded. I hope they will use ''pure black'' text. Or maybe it's just my eyes! 😑
This is an issue you're right, I think when developing the application my screen masked this a little as it's pretty clear on mine. I will look to improve this.
At the moment we're working on introducing a wallet and making Quello more SEO friendly (SSR and meta tag improvements to begin with), once we get these features in we've got a few little tweaks planned and then we'll really be ramping up our efforts to get current Hive users introduced to Quello (hopefully finding issues and improvements) before we begin our journey to attracting news users outside of Hive (Hive can be complicated, we want to make sure if their first experience of Hive is with Quello then it's one that keeps them coming back or at least well informed).
Once again, thanks for your review of Quello 👍
