Guess what everyone, Coracle is getting a redesign! @daniele has put together some πŸ”₯ mockups for me, but before falling down that rabbit hole I wanted to run it by my users and the #nostrdesign community. You can find the Figma below, along with some screenshots as well. The goal for the re-design is to: - Make using Coracle friendlier and more intuitive - Make it look like it wasn't designed by an engineer - Solve some complex UX issues, like custom feeds, nested modals, forms, etc. Some questions I currently have: - Is there too much uppercase text? - Are the menus intuitive? - Is it pretty? Is there anything you hate? https://www.figma.com/file/dr0lpdEvs5536OrRZvjTrL/Coracle

@ hodlbod I think it’s attractive. I do get the feeling of orange being too strong, color scheme wise? So my first idea was to say add purple, for nostr rep? Then I had a better idea. What if you used both orange AND purple, and purple buttons etc would subliminally signify social content, whilst orange can tie to the ideas or functions pertaining to bitcoin/zaps etc. see what I’m getting at?
Ah, if I may get the words wrong, do forgive me, hmm, the 'X' button & 'double Chevron' button needs more loveπŸ’”, why? Because it is the most used, it was the most helpful to get me "unlost"🧭 I'm so happy that it's getting a facelift & not changing drastically in the way it currently 'pulls up' notes, a very, very strong point of core-cal.Social😘

It's the WoT score, already present in Coracle. It's not %, it is "equal to how many people you follow that also follow a given person, minus pow(2, log(n)), where n is how many people you follow who have muted this person. This allows you to see at a glance if someone is accepted in your network. This helps reduce spam, impostors, and objectionable content. You can set a minimum web of trust score on your content settings page, which will automatically mute anyone with a lower score than your threshold." (current tooltip) The half circle is more prominent (orange) to show that the user is followed, dimmed for not followed users. I would like to use the coracle sign, (half)circle, more frequently in the interface.

It looks really good! I like how the posts and menu are designed. Here are some thoughts on a few details: - I'm not sure about having "npub" next to the author's picture in every post. Is it distracting, and does it matter in that spot? - Should the font for the post author's nickname be a bit bigger? It seems a little too small. - The rounded corners on the mobile view look a bit strange. - I prefer the current rounded post button at the bottom. - Is the search bar at the top too distracting?
