I'll see you all next year with quote posts or in therapy, whichever comes first #mastodev in the new QR code sharing feature, there’s a slight particle effect. we use the outer space metaphor quite a bit when talking about the fediverse, so we figured this starfield simulation would be a nice way to tie it all together. there’s another detail i like on this screen but i’ll leave that as an exercise to the reader. as always, @grishka did a stellar job implementing this UI read more about this feature: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/02/mastodon-for-android-update/ New change landing in Mastodon for Android soon! In user testing, people have expressed confusion over “why are all the handles so long?” We're presenting handles on profile pages in a new style, with the username and server separated. Tapping the server will show you more details, along with a neat easter egg animation when you tap the rows. @grishka did a phenomenal job on this animation 🙏

@samhenrigold @grishka is “handle” the official user-facing term? I generally say “username” to refer to the whole thing when speaking colloquially (especially to non-techies), similar to Threads’ explanation but I also get that be confusing when explaining the username + server part… @samhenrigold I like the word "community" instead of "server" a bit better, especially for non-technical people. Have you thought about a less technical term? :) but I love the idea behind this change 👍 |
