As seen in the screenshot, there’s a lot of wasted space in landscape mode on my tablet. I don’t see this issue in the feed. I’ve only noticed it when viewing it editing posts and comments.

    Having my eyes have the jump back and forth between two columns doesn’t seem like a great user experience imo

      ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i’d find it much better as it’s more information dense. that’s why apps have preferences.

      but i was just pointing out that there’s definitely a “sensible alternative”

        Fair enough 👍 My main point was really about basic typographic principles, and that (empty) space is fine and often preferable in UI design

          i think it depends

          i mean it looks shitty on my screenshot, but that’s because it’s a phone not a tablet. my eyes can move easier than my thumbs, so i’d rather glance than have to scroll twice as far

          i disagree with empty space usually, but i don’t disagree that it would be better filled with, say actionable buttons rather than text that needs to be read
