I had a small UI/UX feature suggestion for Summit that I think could be helpful.

Currently, Summit already does a great job visually distinguishing roles:

  • Community Mods are shown in green
  • Instance Admin are shown in red

I was wondering if it would be possible to add a distinct colour for the Head Mod / Top Mod of a community.

For example:

  • Instance Admin: Red
  • Head Mod: Yellow
  • Other Mods: Green

Kind of like a stoplight system (red, yellow, green).

This would make it easier at a glance to tell who ultimately runs a community, especially in larger mod teams or when reading mod comments in threads.

Totally optional, but I think it could be a nice improvement.

    This still has the downside though that one additional fetch will be needed per community to determine who the head mod is. I personally don’t think the additional network call is worth it for this information :/

    To be clear, when browsing a community feed, that information is already there so it’s easy. It’s more for any of the feeds that contain more than one community.
