Design

fc-updates

Shout out to @blockheim and @deodad who did 15 variations of this over the last 3 weeks.

Here’s a quick behind-the-scenes summary of all these variations and how we arrived at the final design. 

We went through 3 phases in this process:

✨Phase 1✨ 
Main priority was updating channel labels (low risk, as we could always revert to this version if Phase 2 didn’t work out).

We tested a few variations throughout the week and ultimately decided that chips were the best option. During this process made minor adjustments to dark mode colors and said goodbye display names (and emojis)

my phase 1 image didn't upload 🥲 so here it is

I'm glad you're adjusting dark mode color.  I only use dark mode on mobile, and the dark purple (linked) channel names / user names against black is just too dark for me to read comfortably, so hopefully that contrast becomes clearer.
