Have you tried it? It got merged 3 weeks ago and is a bit hidden. You have to go to a user’s profile page, click “More” and then “Edit note”.
I use it to attach the emojis to users that I like, dislike… Users who offer particularly great advice. Users who ask a lot of questions and then ghost everyone in the comments by never engaging with the discussion or follow-up questions. Clowns…
I would say this makes me a bit more at ease once I have a negative encounter on the platform. I can just mark the users and be sure I don’t make the same mistake again. And I make sure to factor in positive encounters, too, so I know whom to pay attention to and invest some time in a good answer. I’m not sure where this is going long-term. In the few weeks I’ve been using it, I randomly had some note pop up and remind me both to be nice, or to ignore other discussions.
We could make it easier to find by adding it to the popup that appears when hovering over a username?
Good idea. It’s going to be a few lines of code, though. I believe we need to add a bit of handling and pass down urls through htmlx so we can navigate back after the note got set. Other than that it should be pretty straightforward and a really good place for that button.
i think a little pencil next to people’s usernames would be more convenient and obvious. I didnt know hovering over a username even did something and hovering on mobile wont work
