I would like to have a twitter-like site with tags, each tag acts as a Reddit community. I would like it to look exactly as depicted in my mock-ups, if possible. Users sign up for accounts with email, can create a username and password. Viewable without signing up. -Users can subscribe to Tags. When a new tag gets used, it creates that community, and offers that user the option to moderate that community. Any user can become a moderator of an unclaimed tag. -Multiple themes, day/night mode as well as others available to choose from in account settings. Color schemes/mock-ups will be provided. -Ability to follow/unfollow users. Their posts should appear in “your roost” feed, which has three options: Coops/Free Range/Combined -Show usernames and avatars in all notifications -Going to [login to view URL] should lead to the /All feed by default, add a toggle in user profile settings to choose between All/Your roost/free range -Endless/Infinite scrolling in all feeds/profiles -collapsible posts and comments -nesting comments -search function -Favoriting a post or comment gives notifications for replies to that post/comment Accessibility: -Accessibility is very important for this project. All buttons should be readable by accessibility programs -Alt text field for all image (link) uploads -Option in account settings to change all text to Open Dyslexic font -colour blind friendly themes; including also texture on buttons and using contrasting on button outlines and other areas. - customize the size of the font on the page to be larger or smaller in account settings. Posting: Users can submit posts from any feed using a button on the bottom right of that feed’s banner. One post may appear in up to three different tags leading to that same post. Posts without tags still possible, being viewable in the /all feed along with tagged posts, as well as having their own “twitter feed” called Free Range. -All/Your Roost/Free Range feeds “Cluck with us” and allow user to input which Coops to tag their post to -In Coop feeds, “Cluck in this coop” automatically adds that coops tag to their post -Image embedding in posts and comments. Multi image posts. -Images hosted off site (on Imgur/similar sites) and would eventually like to have our own image upload system. -Hearts instead of upvotes. -Hearts and comments raise post in Hot (default sorting algorithm in all feeds/post comments) -Flag button for posts, with multiple options for reasons why. When a post reaches 10 flags it no longer rises with engagement. -Feeds, coops (tag communities), and comments sortable by Hot, Top (all time, last hour, day, week, month). Default to Hot. -Users may reward posts/comments by purchasing awards (clucks and caws) which boost posts in the Hot algorithm. -Toggleable notifications for individual likes/show who liked what post (JohnDoe liked your post) On by default -Ability for users to mute and hide posts from specific users or communities in the /All/free range feeds permanently/1 hour/24 hours. List muted/hidden tags and users in account settings -Toggleable trigger/spoiler/content warnings when posting images -In Hot algorithm, limit/space out highly engaged content from the same tag/user. In all post/coop/free range feeds -If a single user reports over 5 posts/comments within 30 minutes, escalate those reports to admin report -Markdown support -Users you are not following have a + button next to their username in posts and their profiles, “-“ if already following (to unfollow) see mock-ups -titles optional -clicking titles (or top middle of post if untitled) opens link to view full post -share button opens in page window with option to copy direct link to post/comment, send link as DM/text message/email Page header: Displays the same on all pages.

Dear Sir, Are you looking for a Twitter-like site with tags, each tag acting as a Reddit community, that looks exactly as depicted in your mock-ups? I am confident that I can deliver the project as per your requirements. I have the necessary skills in PHP, JavaScript, Python, HTML, and Backend Development to build the site. I can ensure that the site is highly accessible and meets all the requirements you have listed. Moreover, I will ensure that all the buttons are readable by accessibility programs, and that there is an alt text field for all image (link) uploads. I can also provide options in account settings to change all text to Open Dyslexic font, and to customize the size of the font on the page. Furthermore, I will ensure that users can submit posts from any feed using a button on the bottom right of that feed’s banner. I can also ensure that posts can appear in up to three different tags leading to that same post. I can also ensure that users may reward posts/comments by purchasing awards (clucks and caws) which boost posts in the Hot algorithm. I can also provide toggleable notifications for individual likes/show who liked what post, and ensure that clicking titles (or top middle of post if untitled) opens link to view full post. To demonstrate my capabilities, I can provide a free demonstration of the solution even before the project is awarded. I look forward to hearing your response. Thank you.

Dear Roostdotchat, I hope you're having a great day! I came across your project for creating a Twitter-like social media platform called Roost on Freelancer.com, and I must say, it's an exciting concept. I appreciate the detailed project description you provided, and I can see that you have a clear vision for the platform's features and functionality. As an experienced developer proficient in PHP, JavaScript, Python, and HTML, I understand the key elements of your project. Your platform aims to allow users to sign up, create a username and password, and view content without signing up. Users can subscribe to tags, which act as communities, and even become moderators for unclaimed tags. Additionally, you require multiple themes, day/night mode, and customizable font sizes for enhanced accessibility. To address your project's needs, I propose developing a robust platform that precisely aligns with your requirements. The platform will include features such as endless scrolling, nested comments, search functionality, and the ability to follow/unfollow users. It will also support image embedding, markdown support, and the option to reward posts and comments using a unique system of "hearts" and purchased awards. To ensure accessibility, all buttons will be readable by accessibility programs, alt text fields will be provided for image uploads, and users will have the option to change text to Open Dyslexic font. The platform will also incorporate color-blind friendly themes and customizable font sizes. I would love to discuss the project's scope in more detail to ensure that I fully understand your requirements. I invite you to schedule a brief call at your convenience. This will allow me to ask any questions I may have and provide you with a more accurate timeline and pricing estimate. Regarding payment, I am open to discussing flexible terms. I propose that payment be made upon project completion and your satisfaction with the work and services provided. Thank you for considering my proposal. I look forward to the opportunity to work on this exciting project with you. Best
