i don’t think there’s any other input type you can apply the one million schtick to except color. i was thinking of squared shaped browser native color pickers on a 1000x1000 or 10k x 100 non responsive grid. but after seeing the infra and bandwidth costs from the guy who did checkboxes i don’t think my stack of choice could keep up (RoR) i was really looking forward to utilizing fly’s pause/resume feature

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. The idea of a massive grid of color pickers is intriguing, though the infrastructure demands, as you've pointed out, are significant. I am currently using Laravel and VueJs hosted on a DigitalOcean VPS, which has been manageable so far.
