Prototype more elegant status icons #2312

Closed NickColley closed 1 year ago

NickColley commented 1 year ago

Just so you know... I tried having the retweet be an outline stroke like the star and it looks awful.

@nolanlawson what you think to this? If you're into it I'll get it ready to merge... (remove checked code etc) Builds off https://github.com/nolanlawson/pinafore/pull/2297

Closing this for now as want to try something else with the retoot too...

@NickColley I'd prefer not to use the outline-star icon for unfavorited. It makes the animation look quite a bit less smooth when favoriting. Also, this may exacerbate existing problems with contrast, since the icon is less visible in its unfavorited state. Also, I like that the current four status toolbar icons have roughly similar visual weight at a glance.

Yeah agreed, I like our current approach it feels much more intentional but will keep thinking on it
