Sweet. Thank you!.

Are there plans to give the "comment reply" window a similar visual overhaul to the "create post" window?

[-] ljdawson@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I was thinking about that. Do you prefer the new one?

Yes, the new one looks nice and clean. I think a bit of padding really helps to make it look modern. (yeah, I know this will ruffle some feathers because some people apparently prefer 0px padding on everything)

One thing that always irked me a bit about the old "comment reply" window is that it has a fixed division of the comment you're replying to, and your own reply. Maybe a toggle would be nice? (and it would also be nice if that top window would also show the text from self-posts when I'm writing a top-level comment; that way we would be able to copy/quote from the selftext. IIRC on reddit it only worked when I was replying to a comment)

Thanks for your work! Using Sync here feels like coming home.
