Testing Nested Replies on Meta

The share dialog works as a hint for those who cannot check the category permissions.

But of course, that only tells me about groups I am allowed to see. Maybe you also added e.g., some customer groups that are not visible for me :woman_shrugging: But the feature wouldn’t tell me about those either, which is why I think the category description is still a great place to tell users such information about a category.

Two things I think I saw happen that were a bit unexpected to me:

  1. Clicking into a topic via a notification turned it into flat view – pretty sure I didn’t do that explicitly
  2. Clicking in after seeing Lilly’s most recent reply put me at the OP, rather than her reply (though I don’t know what I do expect)

Well the mobile experience isn’t great…

Clicking in after seeing Lilly’s most recent reply put me at the OP

When clicking your reply for some reason it appeared at the top despite me having the thread set to “top”, don’t know if this is intended or not but it felt weird to me:

Mobile view is a bit funky at very deep levels of nesting

I figured out it is possible to scroll horizontally, but the part of the screen for the deep post stays narrow.

Oh, maybe I’m doing it wrong, eh?

Deserving a nested view is more like a curse… :laughing:

Ronald McDonald's Reddit Cringe Reaction

Nice to see it in action, though I quite dislike this format in general for, I guess, the same reasons it was never included in Discourse before.

I suppose many customers and potential customers asked for this. I hope it will not be too hard for you to maintain this along with the regular flat view! :face_with_tongue:

And also that people who design themes won’t have a hard time taking this new feature into account. :smile:

Anyway, congrats to the people who designed and coded it: it works, looks nice, and feels oddly seamless :face_with_tongue:
Always nice to see experiments, regardless of whether they are eventually released or not!

This is cool but I’ve never been so confused on Discourse :joy:

Well, uh… this was NOT what I expected! But on desktop, it actually doesn’t look too bad (except for me not being used to small avatars).

Also flairs seem a little wonky:

Wait a minute! That wasn’t a bug! That was UX :eyes: .

I have to switch my phone to landscape mode to even see the reply button at this point but the quest shall continue!

I’m seeing an unread indicator:

But I can’t seem to find the post? How would Discourse know if that post has been read? Do I have to open up the threading really deep to find that?

BUT I WANT TO MUTE THIS TOPIC AND I CAN’T :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

The absolutely worst thing with Reddit is how you can get completely lost in a very short space of time - what reply relates to what, and why do I have to click things to expand? Ew!
