Slow mode and other Misskey wellness settings

[turtlegarden]

It is easy to overnote on Misskey.

So here are some things that I thought about that could help many people (including me) not overnote.

Grayscale mode

Remove all of the color from your Misskey making it less addictive. Like in Pinafore.

Slow mode

Like in Mastodon, do not auto display new notes and notifications, add a button to display them. This could also hide the "There are new notes" button.

Remove notification dots

Like in Pinafore. No notification dots to wait for.

Category in client settings for these

That is self explanatory.

I'm looking forward to working on some of these, maybe. Thanks so much!

I think remove notification dots and probably also greyscale mode can already be achieved by using custom CSS.

For example, to remove the blinking dots:

.indicator, .fa-circle {
  display: none;
}

For greyscale mode you could probably start by using Client Settings > Themes > Make a Theme.

Indeed, I already do some of these with custom CSS. However, the goal is to make them easily accessible to new users. :)

I was also thinking greyscale mode would grey out everything. But that would be kinda hard :'(

I'm still gonna keep this open. Mostly for the Slow Mode.

I currently have a ublock origin rule to hide the "There are new notes" button.

example.com##button:has-text(/There are new notes/)

I hope to see this become an included feature to disable to help keeping its addictive nature down.
