This is an alternative to the proposed redesign of Random on T127899: As an iOS user the Random feature is hard to find and use
User story
As a user I want to get the surprise factor of a complete random article loading when pressing a button/link to view a random article, and be able to keep selecting a "random" button/link to refresh random complete articles.
Problem
The solution proposed in T127899: As an iOS user the Random feature is hard to find and use means loading the entire Random article each time the random button is pressed.
- This is performance heavy.
- It may be confusing to add an additional random function on the article view.
Proposed alternative solution
- There is a random tile/button on the Feed
- Tapping on it brings up a separate "Random article" view with only a single preview card for a random article. Users may tap on the card to read that article in full, or else tap on the die button to generate a new random article preview in this view.
