Day 28 of Building Crowdwide — More Personalization, Bug Fixes & Still Looking for a Brand Ambassador!
I was building a social media platform with a special algorithm that gives new voices or communities a better chance of being discovered.
And... it's Crowdwide!
Today is day 28 of giving updates on its v1 version, and its v2 version is going to release on 1 November 2026. Not too far...
So far...
I made a few more changes and made a few bugs...
While adding and setting up something for larger screens, I broke it for smaller screens!!
Just like the sidebar of Crowdwide.
Actually, I saw some space due to padding inside the sidebar, so I just removed it and didn't check it on my phone.
And YES!! That's where I made a bug... bug maker developer respect ++ MISSION RESPECT PASSES+++
Then it was reported by @effessdev, and I fixed it!
And in the sidebar... on larger screens like PCs, whenever I opened the sidebar, I saw that it was different in every section of Crowdwide.

Yeah, I built it but forgot to maintain consistency between UIs. From:
To


So I made it fixed!
And everything was looking so set and satisfying!
But I thought...
Now I have 20+ users, why not increase personalization?
What did I do exactly?
I have added a few more things to the feed.
If your post gets more views, like 40–50 (initially shown to users in their feed), but no reaction, it will be ranked lower (not too low... just less preferred).
And...
Out of every 4–5 posts, you will get one post that you may be interested in...
Just to check your interest in other things as well.
There is a thing in social media platforms that checks the interest shifts of users.
So yeah, I added that...
Actually, I found that approach smart... smarter... smartest... lol.
Further, I haven't made any other very special changes...
Do you think with this much UI... and backend, Crowdwide is okay for now?
Like, I mean, can I stop giving it daily updates now?
Also...
I announced that... I want to make someone a brand ambassador of Crowdwide...
But no one talked about it... lol... so till now... I haven't got anyone...
