Page Loading Indicators

Open moriel5 opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Currently, when pressing a card, a short animation plays, which depending upon your latency and network speed (and potential cache), could be cut off in the middle with the next page loading.

However if there is a substantial delay, you see the animation in is entirety, and then return to how it was before. This makes it appear as if the function is broken and no request was made.

On Piped, there is nothing to counter this either, however since there is no animation at all, you simply see the link underlined as long as the mouse is on it, which makes it easier for people to see what was pressed.

I think that an a connection/page loading indicator should be added, and it should also show what was pressed, to make the process more visible.

Also, for people with aging eyes, or just general hardship to concentrate on a single small point, a separate indicator should be shown to highlight what the cursor is on top at a given moment (shading the card could be some for the latter).
