As I mentioned here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45377920 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45377920), sections may well return - they just didn't make the first cut. Meta-spaces ARE duplicative though, if you already have filter buttons which do precisely the same thing - and these are the filter buttons which have been added.
- nixosbestos 1y agoStill rooting for y'all but did you do any user testing of this? It constantly collapses the filters meaning it's absolutely more thought and clicks every time than just having the favorite button. It would be so, so easy to just not collapse those filters. Or, potentially consider that "duplicative" is not a reason for an unpopular UX change.
- Arathorn 1y agoIt's possible that I'm totally missing what everyone's talking about. The design team did do a tonne of user testing on this, and this is the result. What do you mean by 'constantly collapses the filters'? I'm clicking the filters right now and they stick? And don't collapse? Or are you saying that they apply to a single list rather than multiple sections?
- nixosbestos 1y agoI mean that every single time I reload Element I have to re-expand the filters to get to favorites. It's hidden. It's an extra click. It's extra cognitive load.
- Arathorn 1y agooh! well, that's trivial to fix.
