Hi, @GVG !
I have these ideas to solve your problem:

FAQ

1. initial solution

  • You can change the Discourse style with userstyles.

2. why use user styles?

3. how can this solve my problem?

  • You can set a css style to make this message compact in Discourse.

4. pros?

  • There are already custom styles of compact messages, you can adapt to Discourse if you want
  • Usertyles is easy for you to do, implement
  • If this is attractive and viable, perhaps Discourse adopts this style as official.
  • This works directly in the browser and you can share this style with others

5. cons?

  • If you disable visual style, you have no compact message
  • Knowledge in css and js is required to manipulate the site

6. idea? my opinion?

  • I think your idea can be applied using usertyles or creating a custom theme for the Discourse

7. Do you have any less complicated ideas?

  • Make a theme and customize that theme with whatever you need, like this compact message idea.
