Looking for design feedback
2mon 14d ago by lemmy.world/u/idunnololz in summit
The original design was to move the icon to the top to reduce the size of the items.
However, after implementation the change it looks a bit weird so wanted to see what the community felt.
Let me know in the comments if you prefer A or B.
If anyone has other feedback for the design let me know.
| A | B |
|---|---|
 |  |
Update: Based on the feedback. I am going with A. Also I noticed you can basically accomplish B by changing some settings and using the old list layout so this way we have the best of both worlds.
I find A better: more compact.

B seems more natural to me
Agreed
A seems more compact. The space between the post title and the comments icon seems unnecessary.
Is the removal of the post author optional? I quite liked seeing that but now it looks like it only displays the community?
Yeah its optional
I would expect no less, just making sure.
EDIT: Something was looking "off" to me and now I realise that it's the upvote count being to the left rather than next to the comment count towards the right. I'm not sure I like that personally but maybe it's a matter of habit.
What setting brings back the post author? I've made use of the tags and would like to see the authors on the feed still.
Settings > Posts feed > Posts feed header version.
Huh, I set that but still no author shows.
Sorry that was the wrong setting. The correct one is in Settings > Posts feed > Post appearance> Post header style.
That did it, thanks much!
I like A better. The gap between the preview images on shorter posts looks weird.
