it seems that this AI bubble is already bursting!
the number of people being satisfied with kinda imperfect human made stuff, than a super perfect AI content, is rising!

Designers,
drop your portfolio, let's review them : )

Getting users is easy, getting users who actually want your product is difficult :)

"If it looks too clean, it’s probably missing imperfection."

(Thread 4/4)
Try this on your next poster headline and compare before/after.
The difference is subtle but massive, suddenly your design has breath and personality.

What’s your favorite way to add analog soul to type? Loose kerning, texture, ink bleed, something else?
Drop it below. Happy designing : )

Never use perfect kerning on display text if you want real analog soul.
Digital fonts are designed to look flawless on screens
But printed posters and letterpress work never were. Hand-set type has natural inconsistencies that feel alive and human. That “too perfect” look is exactly what makes many designs feel cold and digital.

(Thread 3/4)
Old letterpress printers placed each wooden/metal letter by hand. Slight rotations, height variations, and uneven spacing were normal.
Modern perfect kerning removes that imperfection, and with it, the warmth.
A little controlled chaos makes people stop scrolling. It feels premium and tactile, like real ink on paper : )

@dextertwts @markproduct thanks man :)

There's a quiet confidence in people who don't feel the need to document everything.

Not every meal needs a photo.
Not every achievement needs an announcement.

Not every thought needs a post.
Some experiences become more valuable when they're fully lived instead of partially shared : )

@RiddleSphere yes, what has been it, in your case?

[bitgrain @trybitgrain]

what inspired you to start designing?

The biggest flex in 2026 isn't money.

It's uninterrupted time.
Time to read.
Time to think.
Time to learn something slowly.
Time to take a long walk without checking your phone.

The wealthiest people I know aren't always rich.
But they control their attention :)

[bitgrain @trybitgrain]

designers, what are you making today?
