Seeing as you asked... your website's terrible UX doesn't help. I just took a look and moved on within 30 seconds - a dated look and feel (that also feels targeted at primary school teachers), walls of text, broken links, no clear route back to the homepage to reorient yourself (can't click the logo), no clear waypoints to follow...

You only get one chance to make a first impression. I'm afraid the first impression I got means I'm unlikely to return. I suspect the same applies to all those who took a look in March.

Which links were broken?

What makes it dated specifically? Versus let’s say https://joinmastodon.org/

Also did you visit from a mobile phone or desktop?

In addition, the site isn't responsive, which is quite problematic considering that statistics show ~60% of web traffic is on mobile devices.

>What makes it look dated?

3D strong blue and green spinning globe. 3D logo, hard (high contrast?) RGB values. Child's drawing header looks like a hospital. Mission statement not at all aligned with what your comment says. Empowering people page, weird lego photoshop. More strong RGB icons.

>We build apps for all kinds of communities.

I assume this is an app building consultancy from this statement. Nothing about decentralization. Way too much text on the page (for people like me who cbf to read). Are you trying to get people to download your group / calendar app or build apps on qbix? Choose a goal and optimize your copy for it.

Mastadon - Single page layout. Clear missions statement (Social networking, back in your hands). Flat (material?) icons. Single, fixed width column of text. Lower contrast color scheme.

What do you mean it isn’t responsive? It loads on mobile phones with a completely mobile optimized look. Have you tried it? Unless you mean you loaded it on a desktop and tried to resize the browser window to quickly check what would happen on a phone - no normal user does that

You’ve picked a point of the criticism and are trying to defend it. You need to drop your view of your own work when receiving constructive criticism. I agree with other comments. Your website is full of 3d effects and low quality pictures that imply it’s a product for children- and most importantly it doesn’t seem to mention your product besides the blog. A blog is a secondary strand of thought from the main page. You should only have to read the blog if you’re already interested and want to learn details. Also in the blog, you give a long list of features that are very difficult for non technical people to consume. There’s no value statement. It also reads like a side project and not a professional venture. If you spent $700k on this, you should really pay a professional to write some marketing material.
