Loving the SUPER BLACK, but I am getting some weird gray bar thing at the bottom of the screen while in threads.



It appears to be due to the bottom bookmark trying to slide off the screen when entering a thread and the block of space getting “stuck” and floating at the bottom. I can make a video if needed. XS if that’s any help. Seems to be limited to the OLED mode.

Super happy that the OLED dark mode is being implemented. Really does make the blinding white of embedded tweets stand out more though. Wasn't there talk of being able to use Twitters dark mode in embeds?

Oops, forgot to deliver my tweaks to the gradient before it went out. I’ll look into that, the tweet color, and the quote icon tweaks tonight.

And now it’s no longer happening. Didn’t restart the phone or anything, so who knows.

Edit - Seems to come and go randomly. Can't nail down a common thread.

No one left uncured.
I got you.
This is going to implicitly sound more critical than I intend it to for which I apologise, but I feel like I've missed something.

What's the rationale behind the "alternative" theming with the accent colour changed from the previous somewhat awkward but characteristic off-turquoise to a much bluer blue?

I had the weird grey bars and the shortcut bar being all messed up when I switched to the OLED theme. I force closed the app and went back in and it looks like it corrected itself.

Previews for new threads are bugged for me, they only show the topic, tag and “joined” as it appears next to one’s avatar and nothing else. Also I’m getting double entries on my bookmarks page.

Added to the list! For the duplicate bookmarks, notice anything particular about them? Does tapping either duplicate work to go to the thread? Do the duplicates appear next to each other? Any chance you have multiple pages of bookmarks?

The share sheets for images look like they don't have airdrop anymore

I’m actually not sure there’s a way to say no to AirDrop. When it’s missing from Awful can you do it in other apps?

Some people like it. I like the awkward off-turquoise myself, but especially with how themes are set up now it’s no trouble to have other themes available.

Just the one page. They move around the list, sometimes separate, but once either one is tapped they seem to group back up. Both seem to work fine for going into the thread, but only one shows the new post marker correctly. Deleting either deletes them both.

I feel dumb but could someone explain what the deal is with the OLED theme? Why is it so great on an OLED screen?

I just have a regular X so it just looks like light text on dark. If I had an OLED phone would it be psychedelic or something?

I've made a mock up of a few tweaks I think would make the OLED theme look even better:



The Platinum-Member and Quote-Clean icons are in here.

Dimming these 2 icons plus the Joined and Post Time/Date text to the value of #666666 (40% brightness) seems to knock them back a bit while still leaving them legible enough against black and the quote grey. These are secondary to the poster name and post content so fading them off a bit will make each post a bit easier to parse which should lead to a nicer user experience.

Also blackened the bottom nav but that's already in the works it seems.

Not sure if we actually care but #666 on a black background fails WCAG AA accessibility standards. The dimmest you can get away with for that is #767676.

Oh yeah we should probably go with that then.

46% brightness it looks like, not far off.

This is it with all those bits (now including the • • • icon) in #767676

A bit brighter than the previous image - the grey I used was actually 30 brightness, not 40. Still, it's important to meet accessibility guidelines, and it is darker than the current grey so it helps.

e: Could the joined / post date be a touch smaller maybe?
