The Gregzone<p>Hey @ivory — I know you disagreed with my idea of showing user notes next to peoples’ names in the feed, and that does make sense for keeping the UX uncluttered. But how about showing it in the little popup that appears when you long-press a person’s avatar in the feed?</p><p>That seems to me not to add much additional clutter, and a single long-press is more convenient to quickly view your notes on someone versus the current method of pressing to open a post, then pressing their avatar again to open the user.</p><p>My argument for this option is to provide additional accessibility for people with memory and/or attention issues.</p><p>Anyways, just a thought! You all continue to make the best Mastodon client out there. 👍🏻</p><p><a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/ux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ux</span></a> <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/uxdesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uxdesign</span></a> <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/mastodonclient" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastodonclient</span></a></p>

Historically these were huge with CRTs at 5% and 10%, then got tweaked as aspect ratios changed, then thinned out as flat panels made screen geometry more predictable.</p><p>But it never went to zero — Title Safe in particular will never reach the edge of the display, and you will never find a logo (or watermark) touching the edge of the display.</p><p>However! You still have to DESIGN to the edges, or fill it with active signal. “Shoot and protect”, as they’d say in filmmaking.</p><p>You HAVE to put something in the edges, whether it’s an adjacent graphic extending from the inner areas to the ends, or just a piece of background vision.</p><p>This kind of “wasteful” image production is completely normal outside the computer Iindustry, and is in fact universally applied in every other industry. You MUST fill in more pixels that you’ll never use, and possibly never see, in any canvas containing graphic design.</p><p>“Sorry but it’s true”, as Ja’mie would say</p><p><a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/underscan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>underscan</span></a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/overscan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>overscan</span></a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/titlesafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>titlesafe</span></a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/actionsafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>actionsafe</span></a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/gui" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gui</span></a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/ux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ux</span></a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/uxdesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uxdesign</span></a></p>
