So I'm a little confused. Did anyone else who has updated discord get this weird new layout?

@Kaliah So my iPhone 8 doesn't have it, so it'll be interesting to see if my 2020 SE gets it.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@BTyson That's so weird. Why did I get it then

Brandon Tyson
Quiet public

@Kaliah It could be a gradual rollout. As an example, the App Store only showed that I could update to 193.1 even though you have 194.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@BTyson Yeah. Maybe it is. I really wish I could go back though because I don't like or want it, like I've said 35 thousand times.

Brandon Tyson
Quiet public

@Kaliah You could write a review in the App Store about it.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@BTyson as if that'll go anywhere. Still probably not going to make a difference because it probably looks good, and that's what matters to people. Forget accessibility, this looks better, so it must be better

@Kaliah @BTyson Okay but like actually what's your problem with the new interface? I'd very much like DMs to be their own tab. I haven't tried it yet, but that sounds nice as hell. No more wasting like 45 seconds trying to find the god damn DM button.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@TheQuinbox @BTyson My problem is exactly that. I don't want DM's in their own tab. I really don't. I prefer them at the top above the servers. And I also don't want my servers at the bottom of the screen as a second tab bar. Oh and did I mention that, if you have more than like 4 servers, you have to click an extra button to see the rest? I have lots of problems with the new interface.

Quin

@Kaliah @BTyson No, you didn't, hence my utter and complete confusion. Sending 50 replies to different people just saying that you don't like it is a very ineffective strategy for letting people actually know *why* to avoid it.

Quin
Quiet public

@Kaliah @BTyson Also, why the hell would you want DMs above the servers? That was always *super* buggy for me. Like, I'd hit the direct messages button, and get like 2 of them, then a random fuckin' server. Like what?

Kaliah
Quiet public

@TheQuinbox @BTyson I never had any problems with that. The servers were scrolled down the left side of the screen and I could touch on them, and the channels were in the right. Clicking on servers and stuff would change the channels in the right. That's simple and easy. This just makes it complicated.

Quin
Quiet public

@Kaliah @BTyson Yeah no, it never worked like that for me, the swipe order was always weird. I *never* explore by touch though, so maybe that's why? I had no idea servers were down the left side for example.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@TheQuinbox @BTyson Nope, they totally are. And I liked them by that. Also you think the swipe order was weird in the old layout, just wait until you see the new one. It's completely fucked up there too. I used the old interface by touch exploring, which is why I liked it.

Brandon Tyson
Quiet public

@Kaliah @TheQuinbox I have to incorporate explore by touch into my use of Discord even to not run the risk of the app crashing if there's a long message.

Quin
Quiet public

@BTyson @Kaliah Oh yeah, once again welcome to iOS. Not sure if that's an iOS problem but it doesn't happen on Android and it's build with a cross-platform SDK so shrugs.

Brandon Tyson
Quiet public

@Kaliah @TheQuinbox It's still weird that you never had the app crash completely when hitting a long message, whereas both me and Kaliah do, I think. Although 194 hasn't been offered for my SE yet.

Quin
Quiet public

@BTyson @Kaliah Oh I have. Just on iOS though. That was my whole point.

Quin
Quiet public

@BTyson @Kaliah Although I don't think that's an app crash. It apparently stays rendered visually.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@TheQuinbox @BTyson If there is a good way to submit feedback where people will actually see it and care, I'd gladly do that. App store reviews have never gone anywhere for me though, which is why I didn't. But if they have some other better way I'll bring this up for sure.

Brandon Tyson
Quiet public

@Kaliah @TheQuinbox It would probably be good to try that link Quin just sent.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@BTyson @TheQuinbox I am right now. I'm not sure which category it'd go in though, help and support maybe. Also does this link have any ties to email? If it does I won't be able to do it because my discord is linked to my old email I can't access.

Quin
Quiet public

@Kaliah @BTyson Help and support is what I did before. Well, before, I pinged them on Twitter, but y'know. Can't really do that now.

Brandon Tyson
Quiet public

@Kaliah @TheQuinbox I'm a bit nervous though, because I did use a page to try to report the lack of a way to change TTS voices and they just pinged it back that it's Microsoft's fault. I was really dissatisfied.

Quin
Quiet public

@BTyson @Kaliah Wait um. So my phone is on 194.17. I have no new interface.

Kaliah
Quiet public

@TheQuinbox @BTyson WTF? I'm on 194.0 and have it.

@Kaliah @BTyson It's not tied to app version; it's tied to accounts I think.
