I searched throughout the forum for a few hours and wasn’t able to find anything specifically on this topic (though it was mentioned in some threads about user cards as a suggestion.) I understand that many are opposed to this but for some contexts in forums this makes a lot of sense - currently working on a custom theme and wondering if there’s a simple way to show user cards on hover rather than on click: ![12%20AM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/8/5/852cc040c4b17e6aab4e746f85a56e5efabbf889.png) Is there any reason to believe that this will hinder performance or stress the backend in any way? If upon scrolling and these cards are pre-loaded it could send a lot of requests on the backend? Just wondering how best to achieve this without affecting speed and overall performance of the site. ---

Hover doesn’t work on any touch devices, so it generally should be avoided as a primary UX mechanism. > **[Title Texts Suck | Axess Lab](https://axesslab.com/title-texts-suck/)** > > Many people I meet think title texts, also known as tooltips, improve both the accessibility and usability of their sites. They don't. In fact, they… It’s also kind of irritating when stuff starts popping all around your mouse cursor as you move it. ---

모바일에서 호버 기능이 작동하지 않는 것이 크게 문제가 될까요? 이 기능은 데스크톱에서는 좋아할 수 있지만, 개인적으로는 모바일에서는 기대하지 않습니다(여기서 말하는 것은 일반적인 유저 카드에 대한 것입니다). 번거로운 팝업에 대한 논리는 충분히 이해합니다. 확실히 싫어하는 부분이니까요. 하지만 이 경우에는 예외를 둘 수도 있을 것 같습니다. 감사합니다
