feature request: Make better use of space in the header #98

Open cyrneko opened 2 years ago

What do you want to see?

Currently, the "Custom Titlebar" option simply adds a basic CSD, similar to the one in Discord, with the Revolt logo and the usual Titlebar buttons, though, I think you can use the space ever so slightly better

On Discord for macOS we can observe the following:

This, whilst being a smaller detail, looks quite nice, and saves a bit of space

I've made a mockup to show what exactly I would like to see implemented:

(even if the buttons kinda suck)

Just out of curiosity, would you mind sharing a screenshot of what Discord does on macOS?

as you can see, instead of creating a seperate titlebar, it simply creates space for macOS's titlebar buttons, and of course the top header (with chat name, etc) is now a drag-area for moving the window

granted, the image is a little old, and it's from some random german website that nobody likes, but it works for demonstration :)
