Ok it is fairly quiet right now with the loss and the bye week, so good time to implement the “user experience” tweaks I’ve been working about 3 weeks on. I’m working to clean up the look but not add or take away features necessarily. Just make things a little better, cleaner, improved on mobile… and fix that firefox like button bug.
You should see a very slightly different layout in the home page:
- Eliminate button borders and reduce text footprint at bottom of posts and replies. Take focus off of them to make it more on the content.
- Move like buttons to header of each topic/reply, upper right
- Change date of post from the super long format to a Twitter style, like 3h (this shortens it, simplifies it, and makes it take up less space on mobile)
- Make user avatar bigger, because there’s plenty of space for that to happen without increasing the content size. More like Twitter.
- Move category and post time from the bottom buttons to the header, and make the text smaller and less obtrusive. The time is, after all, not a button.
- Move user name to top of post. Format: avatar – user – category – time
Thanks for your patience. Things may not be perfect, but hopefully close. If stuff looks really whacked make sure you clear your browsing data (cache, cookies, history etc). I’m looking on my phone and it looks GREAT. Hoping for the same on your devices.
GO UTES!
