scrolling to the beginning of a Flow topic is uncomfortable on mobile when on Topic page
Open, MediumPublic

Description

This is a rather generic issue: I've been playing with Flow a lot on my phone, and the thing that repeatedly causes me the most discomfort is having to scroll back and forth a lot, especially from the middle of a topic to its beginning. Some ideas:

  • Sticky top toolbar
  • Auto-hidden or auto-compacted posts in long conversations (say, over 10 posts, or X lines of texts, or X pixels)

Sticky top toolbar

There is a sticky top toolbar (the one with the three lines in decreasing length order). After clicking that, you can navigate to the beginning of any topic in one touch (including the topic you're already reading).

Alright with marking this fixed?

Nope - this works on board pages, but not on topic pages.
