Can't vote from friendica so voting via comment: Classic toolbars FTW. Tabbed UI feels un-organised on macOS in its current form and has UI issues that have gone unaddressed for several years:

• https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127610
• https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125511

Thus strong opposition to make tabbed UI default. It is not usable nor ready. Classic toolbar is. I really don't see the point in making UX worse for users and force not-ready tabbed UI on them.

The better option would be a UI selection dialog on first launch of LibreOffice (https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137931). It would annoy users of Classic toolbars since they have one more hoop to jump through before they can begin to work with LibreOffice but if other users are unhappy because they don't know where to find tabbed UI, a selection dialog is probably a feasible compromise.

How to become a better #UI designer in one step

#design #accessibility #a11y

Trying to improve the wrong dimension of #UX will only lead to waste. Learn the difference:

Wonky products are confusing; their mental model doesn't match the user's. Janky products are conceptually fine, but buggy or inconsistent.

Jank manifests only at the hi-fi stage of development, and can be solved by UI redesign or backend optimization. However, wonk must be caught at the conceptual stage with lo-fi tools. You will NOT be able to fix it on the #UI layer.

Mastodon Bird UI is now in version 2.0.0rc30. To this version I've been experimenting with the new 2024-03 v4.3.0-alpha.3 UI and @nileane Tangerine UI's compact header on mobile, thanks for the inspiration and shortcuts code-wise!

This version also includes some slight fixes, icons and other improvements.

The release v2.0.0 will be massive, but we're not there yet with Mastodon v4.3.0 and because I'm following the Mastodon mainline and there is no ETA, I'm taking it easy as well.

Available on the nightly branch: https://github.com/ronilaukkarinen/mastodon-bird-ui/tree/nightly
