On my android tablet, user avatars are no longer sliding down alongside long posts as I scroll.
Is this a change to the software, or have I accidentally changed something on my end? I looked through preferences and couldn’t find anything obvious. I’m using Sam’s Simple.
Personally, I never cared much about that feature one way or another, so this merits a big “whatever” from me.
So far, the tally on this latest update is two features I don’t care about, one that was bad but which was quickly fixed, and one that’s very good. I’m happy.
Another thing I’ve instantly noticed since the avatars no longer slide: The page doesn’t jump back to the prior post when I scroll past it. Which was a constant annoyance. That issue appears to be fixed now. As someone who must scroll a lot to review threads, I say, “much better!”
@Eyebrows_0f_Doom: I’ve never seen it on mobile, as the avatars aren’t in a column by themselves. They are aligned with the post text on the left side.
If you see that on both your phone and laptop, then perhaps your laptop is zoomed in so far that you’re getting the mobile version.
I don’t have anything zoomed in. Is this a feature that can be turned off? Maybe when the boards first switched over to Discourse I turned it off and don’t even remember, because it’s definitely not a feature I want.
