Chuck WendigGiven that I see a lot of #artists here, I hope to see this UI eventually move toward displaying that art in a big, bold way. (Was one of the few nice things about Ello, and is nice about Twitter now and Tumblr.) The Internet is made of both text and images, so to see both displayed BIG BIG BIG AND LARGE would be nice.
Steve@chuckwendig While I appreciate the Tweetdeck-inspired UI on Mastodon, I'd like a more single-column-with-tabs UI as an option. Then media would get a larger stage to play on.
Jeremiah Tolbert@sivy @chuckwendig I'll throw my support behind this idea. It could be a way to help mastodon distinguish itself as more than a Twitter clone.
Janelle Shane@jeremiahtolbert @sivy @chuckwendig Maybe the answer is customization. There is a single column style you can use, though I haven't tried it. I've installed a style that has a light background. And my Tootdon app is displaying images nice and large.
@janellecshane @jeremiahtolbert @chuckwendig So yeah, it's tricky. I'm sure @Gargron prefers the Tweetdeck-style layout, but I'd prefer a single timeline with tabs (or a 2/3 home timeline with 1/3 notifications) layout.
But I would not expect to force all other users to use my layout.
Eugen Rochko@sivy @chuckwendig @jeremiahtolbert @janellecshane yo you can use halcyon.social it's an alternative webapp
@sivy @Gargron @chuckwendig MIght actually be TOO much like birdsite, but just that it can be done is AWESOME.
