52 badges per page seems a very odd choice if the idea is to have 3 column display (3*17+1), it makes sense for a 4 column display though (4*13), perhaps this is a legacy of an older 4 column design?

Followed posts no longer indicate post status

The Followed list previously highlighted some posts with red background when they were either closed or deleted (I don't remember if closed were included but definitely deleted). This highlighting no longer exists.

The "[closed]" that appears in main page list titles does not appear in the new followed UI either.

This makes trying to clean up and unfollow useless posts a tiresome task now not to mention that unfollow used to work with a single click and now requires two.

Please add some decent front end filtering tools to all these lists. Overall the level of user interactivity in the UI is not up to modern day standards.

When selecting a badge to track, tag badges for tags with long names overflow their container. Here are two examples:

I suggest some tweaks to the CSS of the post summary class: On the left I changed the border from 16 to 10 px, and the font-size from 1.46...rem to 1.16....rem (only changed the 4 for a 1). This makes so much more room available on the page.

Another great option would be to prevent the post score (why is it called votes btw?) from going onto a new line at lower screen widths. There really isn't any use for that too happen, it will only create a lot of whitespace. This can easily be done by switching flex-direction of the post-summary from column to row.

Doing that I'm able to fit both 5 answers and 5 questions on the same place that only had 5 answer and half a question in the original:

Please remove "Navigation View all activity pages".

I feel that the text is superfluous. The drop-down menu makes it obvious to the user that it is related to navigation.

It's a bit weird that the drop down also is repeated in the section heading. I think the overall design of the navigation among the sections could be improved, although I think it makes sense to try to get version 1.0 of the responsive page done with as little structural change as possible.

@αλεχολυτ Which to place first, questions or answers, is based on the activity of the user whose profile is being displayed. It has nothing to do with which site, just what the user has done on the site (i.e. if the system thinks that the user's activity on that site is more weighted towards answers or questions.

Can the activity tab on the profile page please be made to remember the last sub?

Like this:

I usually visit "All actions" or "Votes" to go back to posts I've been interacting with. Now that takes two clicks every time, because it defaults to "Summary".

While I'm at it: if I'm at the "Comments" sub-sub-tab, it doesn't need to tell me that each comment is a comment. Could do with some more content there.

Clicking the "next tag badge" cog icon incorrectly brings up the "next badge" pop-up instead.

I noticed this because I was tracking another tag badge which has been replaced by what I guess is the system's automatic recommendation.

@Glorfindel It's definitely similar and related as they both incorrectly link to "next badge" instead of "next tag badge", but I don't think it's a 100% duplicate as the "available" tab in my pop-up is populated unlike the one in your link which is empty.

I see the same on "all" sites. However... on other sites, apart from SO, having switched to tracking "my next privilege" and switching back to "a tag badge instead", clicking the "Next tag badge" cog now doesn't do anything; no popup at all!? However, another weird thing... I see the option for "Next tag badge" when viewing someone else's profile! Clicking the cog (on someone else's profile) displays my own "next (normal) badge" popup!? And selecting one changes the next (normal) badge I'm tracking on my profile.

I think it's worth mentioning that, should devs and readers not have noticed, the "Research Assistant" badge can be line wrapped due to having a whitespace in the middle. I don't know if it's necessary given the available space. I also haven't seen this happen for any other badges like "Strunk & White" for example.

The Answers and Questions boxes are almost useless now, because they cut off almost all questions short. Here are mine from my biggest profile. Just 1 out of 10 are readable in full. And the others? It's not just that they're cut off at the end, but they're cut off in the middle, before you can tell what they're about. The important part of each question is not visible!

After all the bugs are ironed out, this is what the conclusion will boil down to: Is it better to have a row of tabs, or a side column with those tabs (- links being the same)? The effects on seeing text truncated in the summaries (given the average title length) is an annoyance that can only be mitigated by going back to a row of tabs, or expanding those already short rows to accommodate and wrap the title (which would impact the section on the side visually, since e.g. Answers could have all long titles and Questions all short (or none) - creating a 2x row imbalance.) Ahh, the conundrum.

Thing is, in the reputation section rows aren't aligned with the neighboring Tags section so it's easier wrapping them. (They also don't have an ending timestamp which further cramps the character count - I haven't found an maximum character count title post yet to see how it looks.) But the front-end team have thus far always found a solution for everything :)

In the tabs of the All actions page the labels have varying alignments with the subsequent text that give an overall sense of inconsistency and a more or less varying impression of being misaligned depending on the tab.

feature-request bug?

On desktop the top of my profile looks like:

As you can see there is a lot of wasted space in badges area. Despite this the new and the next badges are placed on the single row producing word wrapping for the name of next badge.

At the same time on narrow screen same blocks look much better:

My suggestion here is to place "new badge" and "next badge" items on the different rows on wide screen, e.g.:

Or take other actions to prevent word wrapping on wide screens that makes narrow design much better than in desktop mode.

Update:

It seems that on some cases there are two rows already, but has another issue that the text may overlap the next badge item border:

The amount of whitespace on the "All actions" page is extreme.

Why is the timestamp on its own line? Why is there a massive left gutter?

Moving the timestamp into the flexbox row and reducing the left column width from 96px to 70px IMO makes this much easier to read and maximises information density

@bad_coder you're right; I missed yours because I was searching for "all actions". Looks like some of the pages have been revised since your screenshots with the type ("comment", "revision", etc) now on the same row as the title albeit with a ridiculous amount of left padding

I think the left padding is because the names of some review items can be very long. So to keep the items in all the tabs of the "all actions" page with the same alignment the items with shorter names end up having that distance to the left edge. I don't know what the solution for this could be....

Please let me see the status of my flags even if I don't have any "helpful actions".

I joined a new site to raise a flag. With no prior history (especially no helpful flags) this is how my activity page looks:

There's a placeholder where my stats should be, providing a link to my flag summary. If my flag gets declined I'll probably be stuck with this state too. As a power user I know where to find the flags without a link, but this is something that users might miss. I don't know how the UI could accommodate this, which is why I think this is a feature request. UX-wise it's more like a bug.

Voting corrections/reversals for votes on questions only, when you are the one who cast the votes, don't clearly indicate what happened there. Per a moderator on the site, the case depicted below was one where I cast votes on questions (so, no change in reputation on my part) that were then reversed by the script. Usually, voting reversal includes some votes on answers, or is seen by the person who was voted _upon, so there is some indication of a reputation change.

Given that this is unclear/confusing, could the entry/line item here for such reversals either:

Not be shown at all when there is no reputation change (probably the best option since this is the Reputation view?

or
Indicate that the reversal was on questions only, thus there was no rep change to record here (could be preferable if you want there to be a public record for all reversals regardless of rep change for the user)?

voting corrected message on the reputation page, but no indication of the amount or direction

In this case, based on public information, this is three votes which you made to questions by a single user which were reversed by the automatic reversal script when it was run at 03:00UTC on 2022-01-26 (which usually means the votes were in the 24 hours prior to that time). Given that they were votes you made on questions, the reversal of them has no impact on your reputation, so no reputation change is indicated. Overall, the displayed information is accurate. So, not a bug. OTOH, it's not clear to me that the system should show that to the voter when it doesn't impact their reputation.
