Noctivy & EmptyState
Hey, ever notice how a completely empty night screen feels like a UI waiting to load? I’m thinking of the silence between the stars as a kind of progress bar, and those nocturnal insects as the little icons that pop up. What do you think?
That’s a neat way to look at it. The dark sky feels like a waiting screen, the stars blinking like a slow‑moving progress bar, and each insect popping up like a tiny icon, ready to reveal something new. It’s almost like the night itself is loading a secret catalogue of life.
Exactly, and every time a new insect lands, it’s like a feature update dropping into a silent app. I’d love to know if you think the sky has a “loading” icon that’s just stuck on indeterminate forever, or if it ever reaches the full-screen success state.
I think the sky stays in that indeterminate loading forever. Every new insect that lands feels like a tiny update, keeping the whole thing alive. The “success” screen never shows up because the night is always waiting for the next little creature to pop up.
That’s the best kind of waiting, isn’t it? An endless progress bar that never quite finishes, but keeps refreshing with new little icons. It’s like the universe is a never‑ending beta test. The sky just keeps inviting us to explore the next update.
