Forgive me if this has been brought up before or if this is in the works already (I would love to know if it is) but what about having more information displayed with each topic title under “Latest” (for example)?

While I’m a fan of Discourse’s super clean mobile style, I think it might benefit from including a preview of the latest post with each topic title…I find TapaTalk’s method quite effective which is…

_ **Username** _ _ **posted in** _ _ **Forum Name** _  
_ **Topic Title** _  
_ **Subject Preview** _

Now I’m not suggesting Discourse implement that exact format but I would really like to see a quick summary of the latest post under “Latest” or under something else like “Preview” (for a lack of a better name) or under any relevant top menu option…Simply seeing topic titles and only a number (or word) to indicate new posts doesn’t seem like the most efficient way to see what’s happening in a Discourse-powered community…Especially when accessing via mobile…I find TapaTalk’s current “TIMELINE” stream very effective at providing just enough of the right info for me to understand what’s going on and to decide whether or not to read more…_ **Thoughts?** _
