@robagreda @ericholguin this one might be interesting for our upcoming design sprints post Madeira 👀

robagreda commented 4 months ago

Yeah, true @alltheseas we will tackle that one post Madeira!

I could be mistaken, but I think the reason we see an action bar on every notes is because it's easier to tap without long holding every time. In a chat app, you don't usually react to the same person a lot. You may like a photo or indicate that you've read a note with a thumbs up or something, but you're reacting to the same person and don't need to constantly do it.

In a social app, every note is a new person and you would be perfectly fine to react to everyone or a lot of the notes you see. Needing to long tap every time and reacting would probably add a lot of friction and likely reduce engagement. At least that's my theory. Happy to be wrong!

Thats probably true. I rarely do our current long press actions, like custom zaps or custom reactions.

The upside of hiding action menu is that vertical real estate is increased by 5-10%

Now that I write this I seem to recall browsers have "viewer mode", which remove all the interactive distractions

one thing I quickly experimented with on notedeck is vertical action buttons, this would fix the vertical real-estate issue and would keep the buttons around. thoughts?

In the meantime we can start to scale down PFPs, reduce padding, reduce default text size.

A conflict that arises from scrolling as a right handed person is accidentally tapping on actions near the right thumb area: 1) accidental note ellipsis menu mute thread 2) accidental note ellipsis menu mute user 3) accidental zap

alltheseas commented 3 months ago

Maybe for right handed folks action bar is on left side, and vice versa?

Are we looking to have something like reddit action bar(something really small) or even instagram action bar is perceived as small... I am not a huge fan of long press to take actions on a note, but double tap could work as a zap action.

could also do swipe like in mail app

There's another way to increase real estate quite a bit, see this demo (set your browser agent to phone): https://playground-8ca0bb.webflow.io/scroll
