Great project! there's definitely some interesting things to explore here. I had an issue though, I clicked the top link on: https://sideprojects.net/posts/7YZPLbcugbCyf94GY/non-vocal-m... to visit the site and it takes me to https://sideprojects.net/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.programme... which is 404. hope it's a quick fix :) Have you listed this as your own side project on there? ;)

Yep, it's an issue with Firefox unfortunately. It'll work fine on any other browser. I still haven't been able to pinpoint what's causing it since it works perfectly fine on my local environment :(.

Haha, yeah I should probably post sideprojects.net on it as well :P

I don't normally suggest things.. but this immediately screamed at me going to the 'video' category..

I'd suggest if there aren't any posts for a given day, don't show it, so only days with posts are displayed. And also, then populating a page (pagination-wise) with X-amount of posts, rather than X amount of days, just to give a more consistent experience between pages :)

Other than that, seems like a great idea :)

Also, I tried clicking on one of the projects and got a 404: https://sideprojects.net/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.producthu...

Correction: if I click on _any_ link to go to a project, I get a 302, which doesn't redirect, with the text:

Not Found!

We're sorry; whatever you were looking for isn't here..
