Displaying user card on hover

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:

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.

It’s also kind of irritating when stuff starts popping all around your mouse cursor as you move it.

Potrebbe funzionare se fosse esclusivo per i desktop?

Personalmente, sarei interessato a vedere questo realizzarsi. Potrei contribuire con del denaro per richiederlo come Theme component o Plugin.

Fa molta differenza se l’hover non funziona sui dispositivi mobili? Questo è il tipo di funzionalità che potresti apprezzare su un computer desktop, ma personalmente non mi aspetterei di avere su un dispositivo mobile (in generale intendo le schede utente).\n\nSono suscettibile all’argomento dei popup fastidiosi, che certamente non mi piacciono, ma in questo caso potrei fare un’eccezione.\n\nSaluti
