Replace glitch-soc's collapsed toots with upstream's “Read more” #2916

Merged

Conversation

glitch-soc implemented “collapsed toots”, a way of reducing long posts to a few pixels of height.

While practical, this design has a few issues:

  • it can be quite confusing to users
  • auto-collapsed long posts lack any context, and it is easy to miss them
  • the fade design is very subtle and difficult to notice

Furthermore, this feature increases glitch-soc's code complexity quite a bit and is one of the large source of differences with upstream.

Therefore, this PR removes the feature, to replace it with upstream's “Read more” design.
