Issues with New UI – Hard to See and Use

Hey Discord Team,

Thanks for all the work on the new Desktop Refresh UI! I know most users have it now (including me). I just wanted to point out some things that are making it harder to use, especially for people who have trouble seeing or reading:

1. Message Box Problems
   • The message box is too tall and doesn’t line up right with the user box.
   • Padding inside the box is uneven, making it look messy.
   • When scrolling up, the message box sometimes overlaps the text.
2. Scaling Issues
   • Zooming in or out with <Ctrl> + <-> or <Ctrl> + <+> doesn’t change the size of the member list or server list.
   • Server icons are smaller now, which makes them harder to see.
3. Folder and UI Clutter
   • Server folders feel cramped, like everything is packed too tight.
   • The server name at the top of the window isn’t really needed and adds extra clutter.
4. Confusing Settings
   • Some settings work backwards now — you have to turn them off to actually disable them.
5. Timestamps and Poor Contrast
   • You have to hover over timestamps to see the full time, which takes extra effort.
   • Text contrast is low, making it harder to read, especially when scaling doesn’t work right.

These things are making it harder for a lot of people to use the new UI comfortably. Hopefully, these can be fixed soon. Thanks for listening! 😊
