UX Improvements #10
Description
u/FloatyFish came in clutch with suggestions on how to improve Unearth's UX. Below is the list they gave me, might break these into individual tickets in the future.
- Tagging - SEE Tag Suggestions in "Edit Tags" Modal #5
- Autocomplete tags when adding them if possible.
- When the tag dialog is open, have a few of the most recent tags in a section below the main tagging area, users can click on them to add them.
- Scrollbar (vertical) doesn't seem to actually scroll if you drag it in the home section, but if you scroll using the scroll wheel on the mouse it'll scroll.
- Personally, I would have the trashcans for tags greyed out instead of hidden. This will help with discoverability. However, redditors are generally more tech savvy and may overlook that.
- When hovering over subreddits, have some sort of visual indicator. Text change is too subtle.
- Reuse the hover effect that shows when hovering over the link/delete/tag buttons
- When viewing a post or a comment, can we see when it was made?
- Total # of saved comments, saved posts, or both may be a nice feature to have
- Custom scrollbars similar to those that are native on Macs (checkout
simplebarorreact-custom-scrollbarson npm) - Searchbar on the homescreen - SEE Ability to Search Saved Things #7 ([UX Improvement] Search! #16)
- Have sorting on homepage/comments (start with chronological). ([UX Improvement] Add sorting dropdown to all pages #15)
- Showing the last time you synced would be helpful since there is currently no autosync. ([UX Improvement] Show last sync time when hovering Sync Button #14)
- Could use a Post category under filters. ([UX Improvement] Add Posts filter #13)
