Go directly to talk page comment instead of scrolling
Closed, ResolvedPublicFeature

Description

Feature summary (what you would like to be able to do and where):
As a user on Android, I want to click a talk page notification and be brought to the most recent part of the conversation quickly but in a way that makes it clear what I should focus on, so that I can quickly respond but understand the context of the conversation.

Use case(s) (list the steps that you performed to discover that problem, and describe the actual underlying problem which you want to solve. Do not describe only a solution):
When clicking a talk page notification to a thread that is long, the slow scroll takes a significant amount of time to get to the most recent update. (See video)

Benefits (why should this be implemented?):

  • Behavior that is expected on apps (and mobile generally)
  • Limit wasted time
  • Less load on device

It looks like it is still scrolling for me when tested on 2.7.50422-beta-2022-10-24

Hi @JTannerWMF

It looks like it is still scrolling for me when tested on 2.7.50422-beta-2022-10-24

Got it. I just created another PR to fix it.

Will this ticket be a blocker for the production release? or should we merge the fix and then re-release it to beta and production?

It doesn't seem like it has the highlight animation to show where the new message is?

Hi @JTannerWMF, I can see the highlight animation (turning from grey to transparent in dark mode). Would you be able to check it again or post the recording video for me to check?
