I think https://devrantron.com is the official devRantron domain now? :D

    Don't know why, but the fact that the page is basically a rip off of the official site makes me uncomfortable
    I hope he has permission for that

    It has a weird look on my phone

    @MrR0bot I know, yell at @Dacexi. I only own the domain.

    @J-2FA @MrR0bot why would I spend time making it responsive when it has literally no use on a mobile device when I could spend that time on improving the actual program 🤔

    @olback, not yet, we're still making some changes and when we're done we're adding it as the hostname 😀

    @olback ps. Looking into it, since we're hosting on firebase I don't think we can change that? Anyways, the domain works but it redirects to .firebaseapp.com

    Please let me know if I'm missing something :)

    @J-2FA 30 minutes is a lot of time when you have an hour a day to dedicate ;)

    @Dacexi clear your DNS and cache, @tahnik and I set it up earlier today. It shouldn't redirect.

    @Kimmax it's kind of intentional as it's an app made for the community.

    @J-2FA feel free to make a pull request!

    @tahnik Facebook would kind of free you from your damn guts if you rip of their design because you build something for the community
    Did you at least ask?

    @Kimmax to answer your question, I did not ask.

    "for the community" - I did not mean community in general. It's the devRant community. It would be unethical if I created a product of my own that has nothing to do with devRant and ripped off their design.

    But devRantron is a software for devRant and without devRant it doesn't have any value on its own. Hints have been taken from the website's front page to give newcomers a sense of familiarity.

    If you really think we are violating some policy or using the design unethically, I can ask @dfox or @trogus right here.

    @tahnik I'm not in the position to decide this. Also notice I wrote "it makes ME uncomfortable", not accusing you guys of doing anything wrong.

    I have no problem with it. I think it looks good and don’t personally mind that it looks like our current landing page. I like seeing all the contributors in the devRant-like style.

    Keep in mind we have a big website re-launch coming soon and there will also be some big homepage changes, so it will probably end up looking somewhat different.

    @dfox thanks for clearing this up
