View community from post menu?
I think the community and user button was removed to reduce the size of that particular overflow menu, which can help with the user interface on devices with smaller screens and or lower resolution screens. It seemed like a decent compromise since tapping directly from the feed would be faster.
I suggested the removal in a post but it didn’t solicit any replies opposed to the idea. Maybe it was a bad suggestion and I’m curious to hear the specifics of what people dislike about the change. Like I’m still trying to get used to not tapping on the community name at the top, when you’re viewing a post, to visit the community; which was changed to refresh the post like a while back. So I can understand developing muscle memory and having to adjust to changes. Is the change annoying because of a forced workflow change or like loss of functionality?
The post overflow menu includes separate options to view the user and community for the post. Perhaps this could be removed since the option to do so are available outside of the menu and I imagine few people are using it. But I could be wrong, if people think it’s useful, please chime in. Also, if the share button is selected as a secondary button, the option should be removed from the post overflow; the save button does this.
