I chose to reimagine the infinite scroll on social media.

We all know the feeling. You open your phone and 30 minutes disappear. That's doomscrolling.

Let's not even talk about the guilt and anxiety that comes after.

But what if a simple addition could change how millions of people use social media?

That's why I built Zombie Antidote.

A choice point that appears between videos, turning an unconscious decision into a conscious one.

Design decisions:

→ Mood-based. Makes choosing easy when you're in that low-energy zombie state. → Skippable. You can scroll right past it and keep going. → Session-based. Your choice shapes your feed in the moment. The next day, it resets.

Prototype: Zombie Antidote.

What do you think? Should TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube implement this?

P.S. It's a feature of doomscrolling specifically.

Wow!! Now that is a creative and genius concept, as well as, an amazing idea to take back control over one’s own algorithm; often leading people down …🐰rabbit holes 🕳️ .. that can catch us all off guard! Lol 🤸‍♀️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Bravo!!

I'm glad you like it. Now I just need to casually suggest it to IG and TikTok, hopefully they adopt it and make it their own. 👏🏽

Entering Somying into the Rive Interactive Character Challenge!

Somying is a project I've been building over time — not just a character that plays an animation and calls it a day, but one with her own little world that users can actually interact with. Inside the room, everything is designed to be interactive — from clicking and dragging to gamepad support, with real-time clock references that automatically shift the room's atmosphere from day to night. The character, animations, and all interactive systems are built entirely in Rive. The code side was developed with AI assistance to handle the integration and communication with Rive.

Spent an embarrassing amount of time on one thing today: the scroll behavior of a nav.

Third Framer template in the series.

Scroll Perspective Gallery

A horizontally scrollable card gallery where each image tilts in 3D based on its position in the viewport.

✦ Cards tilt as you scroll left leans left, right leans right ✦ Images shift inside each card for real depth ✦ Center card stays vivid, edges fade to monochrome ✦ Drag / Mouse wheel

Too much or just right?
