ya, but it’s still a lot of click thru, especially since video embeds don’t work with the “load full post” button

(1) it should work with the usual internet connections with the usual flickers and random disconnections.
(2) it should allow users to find the reply/post they were interested in, so it shouldn’t use endless scrolling. it could use separate pages.
(3) it should make it easy to avoid video, noise, etc. especially painful video, noise, “hey this is an interesting illusion with these flashing lights, I’ll show it to everyone,” etc.

hi again!
I was hoping to sway y’all into modifying the button for hide or show the composer panel . specifically for “hide”. with “show,” I can click anywhere in the grey bar to expand (yay!) but when I want to hide it, I already have my cursor somewhere on the left because I put it there to type, and now I have to mouse over all the way to a tiny spot at furthest right to collapse (boo!) it’s confusing because it works the way I want one way but not the other and it’s… kind of a drag, man. like, counter-intuitive : (
come to think of it, moving the button to somewhere above the compose window would be fine, but I’d really rather be able to click anywhere grey to hide so it functions the same as expand, though I’m guessing the presence of multiple buttons within that space breaks that possibility?
this is essentially the same argument I made about the buttons in the menus under the top-right icons earlier in this same thread. extending the length of the ˇbutton across as much of the blank grey space as possible would be much more user-friendly. but again, if possible, the best would be a click anywhere grey will hide the composer panel.
this should help towards the goal of getting folks to reply to everyone in the thread with one post, which is usually accompanied by multiple expansions/collapses of the composer panel. this is when I find myself getting really annoyed for not being allowed to just quickly click anywhere grey so I can find some text I want to quote or simply get back to the thread and continue participating.
:^) thanks.

…anyone?
for typing all that out, can I at least get a “No, Noah, that idea sucks, we aren’t going to do that”
?

I worry that making it super easy to hide the composer panel would be very much a problem causing accidental panel closes all around.
I think a better approach here is adding a keyboard shortcut.
hide composer panel (CTRL- m)
Tricky thing is that the intuative shortcut CTRL-h is already taken.
Well, I do agree the down collapse editor chevron should have a bit more padding. So that’s… something… we can agree on here?

You can use Esc, which will collapse if you have a draft and close if the composer is empty.

Directed towards @beschizza as I imagine he is the best person to report this to
The entry for “Dizzy” in the categories dropdown on the main BBS page is capitalised, whereas all the others are not
Well, that’s Dizzy for ya.
