The "activity indicator color" one is "wrong" to me. It says "2h" by her name, meaning she was last online 2h ago, meaning that her activity indicator color should not still be green.
Already feeling like some of these are one person's opinion, biased towards the current status quo in mobile/web. Although there are a lot of good points around padding, font, contrast, etc. Main theme seems to be around consistency.

I think a lot of this was more "find the difference" than it was "tell me what version is better". Once you are able to find the subtle difference, it's pretty obvious which one is better, mostly because one of them lacks self-consistency. I think a lot of the tracking, color, and tint differences were pretty opinionated.

- phnofive 5y agoI’d suggest that "same" can be signaled with an upvote. You can ask hn@ycombinator.com about any account questions.
- arduinomancer 5y agoHad the exact same thought. 2hr ago is not “active” state IMO it would stay green like 15-30 mins after the person was online max.
- shever 5y agoMy thoughts exactly. If "2h ago" was changed to "Online" or "Just now", then green would be "correct" to me.
