issue: menus are not always immediately apparent

suggestion: style menus like sidebars (outlines and backgrounds)


issue: user menu elements on mobile are jammed against left edge

suggestion: add left padding


issue: content and comments are too narrow on large/wide displays

suggestion: add option to set min and max widths relative to viewport (CSS VW)


issue: main menu (from hamburger button) elements on mobile/narrow displayed as block is unsightly

suggestion: elements should be inline-block until they cannot fit on one line


issue: comment action icons are unnecessarily hidden

suggestion: show all comment icons persistently (could be grouped as [up/down/reply] on left, [message/flag/block/fav/source] on right; could be a user profile option to show/hide additional comment options persistently)


issue: message notification (bell icon) often indicates unread count when all messages are read

suggestion: fix


issue: auto-refresh on posts causes elements to move down as reading when scrolled

suggestion: implement option to disable auto-refresh OR move scroll position down correspondingly to total height of dynamically loaded post elements


issue: (if above feature implemented) must refresh page if auto-refresh disabled

suggestion: add soft-reload button (reloads posts)


issue: [subscribed|local|all] default from user profile doesn’t work (always selects local)

suggestion: fix


issue: no function to block a specific community from your feed

suggestion: add function


issue: notifications view has no stateful awareness of viewing mode [unread|all] or [all|replies|mentions|messages]

suggestion: add stateful awareness to enable browser <|> navigation


issue: replying to inbox comment/message does not display after submitting reply

suggestion: display reply to comment after submitting reply


issue: [show context] from inbox comment does not display immediate parent comment

suggestion: [show context] from inbox comment should display immediate parent comment


issue: when viewing context from comment on a non-local instance, you are not authenticated and cannot reply from context

suggestion: implement cross-instance authentication OR link to context in the currently-authenticated instance


issue: [next] buttons have no stateful awareness (displays an empty page when clicked from the last page in a set)

suggestion: [next] should be statefully aware of page and be disabled when viewing last available page


issue: when inbox messages appear as a notification, there should be a button to mark them as read

suggestion: add function


issue: inbox messages are only marked read when explicitly clicking [read] checkmark button

suggestion: messages should be marked read when replying or navigating to context


Hope this helps make some improvements to the UX! :)


EDIT another one while I’m thinking of it: it would be nice for the top toolbar to be fixed at the top so you don’t need to scroll back up to use it.

    Yeah they are really busy right now, so if you want them to get seen you’ll want to merge them into what is/isn’t there in the github
