Pure off-topic fun: what is physically on your desk as you read this? I will start — cold coffee, a rubber duck, and far too many sticky notes.

Thanks for writing this up. Bookmarking it — the kind of thing I will want to reference again in a month.

Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

This deserves more votes. It is a small change with an outsized impact on day-to-day use.

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.

This matches my experience exactly. The hard part is staying consistent once the initial novelty wears off.
