Feedback ยท Make Context on Interests more eyecatching (accepted)

I think it'd be great if profiles that had a context to them were highlighted to stand out, and that they would be listed at the top, rather than alphabetical order like the others.

Could be an issue if there's a lot of things which get highlighted, e.g you have context on every interest in your mandatory and core.

If you had context on everything, things would still be alphabetical, so no issue on that end. If everything was highlighted, that's still useful. It shows the reader "wow, they have a lot of detail on their interests!" that's unique from just having a list of mandatory/customs.

Maybe, but if everything is highlighted, then nothing really is, as it just creates visual noise.

Griz

It's not noise, because you could look at two profiles side by side and see quite clearly that one has a bunch of context and the other doesn't, and that's useful information.

We might be able to use the "light" emphasis color (the copyright in the bottom right) instead of the full one so alleviate issues with all of them being highlighted being visually distracting. Would still be clear.

Griz

Sounds good to me. The major thing is that it simply jumps compared to the normal interests.

Contexts aren't eyecatching enough right now, especially on light themes and in the Traits section. Fixing this will be done at some point.
