New Mobile UI horrendously inaccesible
Personal accesibility gripes with the new UI:
- One-handed use has become significantly harder by changing the swiping gesture to quick-reply (why do I have to reach all the way up just to see pins and active members? Some people don't have a second hand to make this easier.)
- pins and media show everything from a channel and its underlying threads which ruins every organisation that was previously put in - thanks for nothing :)
- Moving DM's to a separate tab…not the worst change, but why must it be so different from PC layout? It just feels so counterintuitive
Other accesibility issues I've seen on other comments here:
- darkening the classic dark theme makes it harder to read for some people
Possible suggestions for improvement since someone thought it'd be a good idea to make this UI update irreversible, but maybe this way it can still be mended:
- Allow users to toggle between “swipe to reply” and “swipe to show members/pins/media”
- Bring back classic dark theme as an option among many themes accessible to all so anyone can use your app comfortably
- STOP GROUPING PINS AND MEDIA WITH ALL THREADS IN A CHANNEL PLEASE, ALL MY ORGANISATION WORK HAS GONE DOWN THE DRAIN, I AM ACTIVELY TAKING PSYCHIC DAMAGE RIGHT NOW - They weren't grouped together before, this shouldn't be difficult to fix!!!
- Put the DM's back where they came from or so help me
To end on a positive note:
I do really like the addition of the media page, if only they weren't grouped with threads… and perhaps the new location of DM's is the only one I might be able to get used to, but the rest you should really consider listening to alll the complaints on this page, especially in regards to accessibility. As someone with special needs I feel like this wasn't taken into consideration at all and to force this update on all your users before thoroughly investigating this aspect is quite hurtful. Do we not matter?
As another user stated much more eloquently in their post: Don't try to do what other social media is doing. Discord's uniqueness is what makes it so good. Why would you destroy your best selling point?
