Some thoughts on the Metadata area (and follow / view profile buttons)? #31

Happy timezone,

Had some thoughts on the location of the follow & view profile buttons on the channel page and just wanted to share them for any comments before implementing:

Rather than trying to squeeze the buttons into the stream title, would it be a better idea to put them in the metadata area like the below?

Additionally, I wonder if it'd be worth extending the metadata area to fill the whole chat area apart from the text box, then close it whenever the text box is tapped?

I like having some of the non-important buttons hidden for sure! I was thinking maybe clicking on profile pictures could be a universal "visit profile" type action? I suspect Follow might be important enough to have as an always-shown button, but with the potential of the Support button as well I think having them in the dropdown might be good!

Sounds good to me.

I agree, wasn't sure about how easy / difficult that'd be to tap when I wrote the issue, but looking now, we shouldn't have any problems there

I think I'll have a play around and prototype a few different things and post them here
