Ah yeah, most vanity labelers like that (as opposed to moderation labelers) don’t automatically label your account, so subscribing to them just allows you to see the labels on other content. You’ll see any labels they’ve placed on your account from your profile - you can see I have 3 currently:

Kinda glad I made the effort to take some screenshots along the way of doing #100DaysOfSwiftUI - it's fun to see all the apps we worked on (well, most of them) laid out at the end. Will definitely come back to these when I need to remember how I did something in SwiftUI 😄

🎉 Just finished Day 99 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Went down an interesting rabbit hole investigating color sets and .tint for this last one... so enjoy some violently pink accent colors for the last project here 🤣 www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/99 (via @twostraws.bsky.social )

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running SnowSeeker on an iPad air. It's got a small list of Ski Resorts in the Sidebar on the left of the screen. In the main content window it's showing details of an American Ski resort featuring a large photo, details on size, price, elevation, and snow pack, and a long description from Wikipedia.

🎉 Just finished Day 98 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Almost done with SnowSeeker, just adding the icons for the facilities and the Favorites button. Might have to clean those up a bit in the wrap up if there's time. www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/98 (via @twostraws.bsky.social )

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running Snowseeker app, showing a detail screen of Ski resort information.

🎉 Just finished Day 96 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. OMG coulda used ViewThatFits earlier! Need to look up a lot of layout stuff after this - moderately complex layouts that still look good in landscape are still challenging. www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/96 via @twostraws.bsky.social

🎉 Just finished Day 95 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. I love dice so much, so a dice rolling app was a fun one to work on. It has also shown me I had apparently forgot everything I learned about SwiftUI grid layouts 😅 www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/95 (via @twostraws.bsky.social)

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running my dice rolling app. It features a large cyan D20 at the top of the screen with “Total: 62” inside it. Below that are a list of the dice that were rolled (1D4, 1D6, 1D8, 1D10, 1D12, 1D20, and 1D100), and a large indigo “Roll Dice” button at the very bottom.

🎉 Just finished Day 94 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. This was an interesting one, using SwiftUI's GeometryReader to change the color, opacity, and size of a view depending on its position onscreen. Pretty while scrolling! www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/94 (via @twostraws.bsky.social)

A screenshot of the iOS simulator running a simple app. A list of rainbow-colored numbered rectangles (from 1-15) fills the screen from top to bottom. They've been manipulated to form a helix shape, with the rectangles at the top being smaller and more transparent and gradually getting larger and more opaque toward the bottom.

Also it’s very important everyone knows that sometimes birds land on the sheep that are wandering around the glade and then the sheep wear them around like little hats. Peak gaming right here.

🎉 Just finished Day 92 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. SwiftUI's custom alignment guides are VERY COOL. There is nothing that drives me crazy faster than trying to get UI elements to align, these might save my life someday 😅 www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/92 (via @twostraws.bsky.social)

Everytime I forget how to style something in a List or Form view in #SwiftUI I end up referring back to this magnificent blog post, it has such good examples. www.swiftyplace.com/blog/customise-…

🎉 Just finished Day 91 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Didn't get around to adding a no-timer mode, but that's the Flashzilla app done 👍 www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/91 (via @twostraws.bsky.social)

a screenshot of the flashzilla app in the iOS simulator. A timer at the top says “Time is 47”. There’s the green ghost of a flash card getting flung of screen to the right, and the card in the center reads “What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?”.

🎉 Just finished Day 89 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. Adding the timer for the flash card app today and I hope so badly that the wrap-up challenge is to make a “No Big Deal” mode where the timer doesn’t matter, I hate being timed 😰 www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/89

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running the “Flashzilla” app. It features a stack of flash cards in the center of the screen, with the top card showing the text “What did the Hobbit have in its pocketses?” A timer at the top of the screen reads “Time is 94”.

This is also a good reminder to check the alt text reminder in your settings! I noticed it had stopped reminding me recently so I think a recent update might have disabled it, and I think I had to enable the web version separately. Either way, good time to check your accessibility settings!

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running the "HotProspects" app. The app has a very simple UI with with the title "Everyone" and a list of items that contain names and emails.

🎉 Just finished Day 76 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. 76 was a good reminder to make sure buttons have good labels, especially when all that's visible in the UI is the icon. Very confusing to have VO only read out "Toggle, Button" (toggle WHAT?? lol). www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/76

🎉 Just finished Day 73 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge. If I were gonna misspell this app it would be BookitList instead of BucketList cause that's what I'd use it for 😄 Adding touch/face ID to unlock the data was neat too. www.hackingwithswift.com/100/swiftui/73 (via @twostraws.bsky.social)

a screenshot of the iOS simulator running the “BucketList” app. The screen is mostly filled with Apple Map’s standard style map centered mostly over WA state, USA.

🎉 Just finished Day 63 of the #100DaysOfSwiftUI challenge.

a screenshot of an iOS simulator displaying two images. The bottom image shows the original photo of a small blue flower surrounded by spiky green leaves. The top image shows the same photo manipulated with the Fade and Vignette effects from Swift's CoreImage library, which makes it look faded and worn like an old photograph.

Been playing a lot of Planet Crafters with the family lately and it’s been a huge hit. Not only is it a beautiful game, but it’s kinda nice to have a survival / base builder where you don’t have to kill/be killed by other creatures. Makes it easier to get the more pacifist fam involved too #gaming

Screenshot of the game Planet Crafter, showing a rocket taking off from a launch platform on a red, rocky, mostly barren planet. The sky is blue with a scattering of cloud vapor and a huge green planet takes up half the sky to the left of the launch platform.
