AMA w/ Maker of the Year, Pascal Pixel! (ノ°∀°)ノ⌒💫

you probably know me from horse browser, but i’ve been tinkering with design and html since the game boy color first came out!

before i even learned to code, i was making wallpapers & windows xp themes trying to win "daily deviation" awards on deviantart. when i *did* learn to code i built a pokémon battle with jquery right after coding my first working rock-paper-scissors game—just so i could do battles on my kindle. later, i designed poolside fm’s (now poolsuite) iconic icons, launched johto mono (formerly “pokémon-font”) on product hunt, and kept making weird & fun experiments with design + ux at their core

thanks to the power of ai, i went from building websites to building a browser. horse is built with electron, and we’re currently pushing hard to get extension support merged with the hope that once that happens, we’ll see a wave of other niche browsers that help so many people

i say "help", because i could never get anything done with normal browsers, until i made horse, and to my surprise, i found that it's because i have adhd, and horse also helps other people with adhd—letting them switch topics, come back to things later, and actually follow up. i’m currently working on getting recommendations from therapists who are seeing how much horse helps their clients

ask me anything—why i made horse, what being a super cool guy feels like, or whatever else you’re curious about!

i’ll be around all day answering questions (´･ᴗ･ ` )
