The story behind the new UI (Metro 2.0) is interesting.

I was building a new feature with its own UI last Aug.

I wanted to share screenshots, so I quickly designed a new Metro UI that better integrated with and would showcase this new feature more prominently.

The feature was Groups.

I assumed that I could release groups and then work on the new UI but after seeing how well the groups UI worked, I decided to delay groups to focus on what would become Metro 2.0.

Glad I did. #pixelfed

That being said, I'm debating if I should release Groups as-is or if I should update its UI.

Now the core UI looks better with Metro 2.0, I want to bring that to Groups. Thoughts?

@dansup I believe that consistency is what should be valued the most, therefore I would go for releasing Groups with the new UI already.

@dansup you can release the groups just like you did with the UI, call it Beta, users will understand that’s still being worked on

@dansup Get end-to-end encryption working for private messages, and I'll consider using Pixelfed. I don't like it how no social platforms besides Status have end-to-end encryption.
