Merge Summaries concept into Topics and Popular

Open georgeowell opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

What's the problem you want solved?

Summaries is pretty decent now. I just wondered if anyone wanted to merge that visible comments concept into Topics and Popular.

This would be a much better experience in navigating public threads as it allow you to see that a post has become a discussion, a preview of the nature of discussion and also how many comments exist.

In addition, when combined with #179, we would have a clearer label to click through to the thread rather than clicking a unrelated piece of information (how long since the post was made).

I also wish the visible comments were limited to two rather than three as it takes up quite a bit of screen space on my laptop.

Is there a solution you'd like to recommend?

  • Removing summaries view
  • Adding comment summaries to Topics view
  • Adding comment summaries to Popular view (if we think this is necessary)

I'd merge this but I think it would be more prudent to make filters or something like in #170 so that we can switch between the raw view and the summary view everywhere.

I think perhaps Topics and Summaries should just be merged into Threads. Threads seem like a good compromise for what those views were trying achieve.
