Of all fatuous nonsenses I've heard from design "geniuses" over the years, that might take the prize.
We don't look at spoken words, we listen to them. We add audible prosody (both pauses and intonation changes, in particular) to segment our speech. If we were to optimise our spoken language for lip-readers, we might very well choose to add some extra visible segmentation to compensate for the intonation being mostly undetectable.
You could validly claim that capital letters are superfluous given the presence of full stops (and I would disagree and we could debate that), but this argument that capital letters are bad because we don't speak "big sounds" is absurd.

We don't speak big sounds? We also don't speak commas and full stops, but those are still an important part of writing. Trying to get some of the suprasegmental features of speech into low bandwidth text.
UI tests, and any automated tests in general, must be reproducible and deterministic to be useful. Do you position this product as an automated test tool, or useful “chaos monkey”?
Also a nitpick, but there are profanities on your landing page and it kinda puts me off.
Evy is an app for collectors, both professional and casual, to help them keep track of their items and share it with the world. Currently there are either overly complex inventory management systems, which are overkill for casual collectors, or generic social platforms, which are "fine" for everything, but great for nothing. My goal with Evy is to fill this gap by offering an easy way for any collector to manage their items.
In short, it is an asset management system tailored specifically for collectors.
Same. Applied to dozens of positions, and only got rejects. Not even a screening interview... Weirdest reject was when I applied to a position where I had 100% match with all the tech requirements (including niche ones), had relevant soft skills and had an industry experience. I highlited all of it in my cover letter, and still got a rejection.
Looks like frontpage url (launchleopard.com) is not working - giving me 500 response. Then in docs neither starter repository buttons works - leads to 404. Is it built using your own boilerplate? If yes, then I am not buying :)
Haha yes, was an issue with a rate limit on the Github API, should be fixed now! Didn't expect this amount of traffic :) Docs were built with Mintlify and the links to the repos in the docs will work once you have accepted the invite (after making a purchase).
I am working on a free app to host, manage and share your hobbies or collections.
I have an extensive collection of mechanichal keyboards, and I often struggle to find photos when talking about it, to keep track of pending orders and keeping a stock of stuff. So this is app comes from my own necessity :)
