Patchwork: Mouseover of profiles should include some of the user bio

[celesteh]

The who to follow side bar is interesting, but mousing over a particular suggestion only gives me their profile picture and name. Including a bit of their bio/description would make this feature more useful and I might start using it to figure out who to follow.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?

[Cornelius-Sheahan]

This would be my first contribution to this project so I'd like to start with something small like this.

I assume the best place would be between the Name and Public Key, or is there a alternate spot?

How much of the Description should be shown?

• split on the first new line ('/n')
• character limit approx equal to the public key
• the smallest between these first two
• the entire length

For reference, here's how it currently looks:

I think the description would be cool, and I think this is the right heuristic:

• split on the first new line ('/n')
• character limit approx equal to the public key
• the smallest between these first two

I'd also be interested to see some basic friend info, like "blocked by 4 people you're following and followed by 42".

[mmckegg]

It currently looks different if you don’t follow the person.

You’ll see number of mutual friends or if people block them.

[lluisemper]

I am willing to help, what should I do? a fork of it, implement it and merge it?

[christianbundy]

Yep! There's more info in the contributing guide.

@lluisemper If you want help getting started with the implementation we could set up a call and I could sort of show you the ropes :)

[lluisemper]

Very kind your offer, let me a couple of days to try it out by myself and If I can not figure that out I let you know :) @Powersource

Kind regards

Not sure if you all got notifications for this but #1277 does something like this and seems to work fine for me locally, but I wouldn't want to merge it without at least someone else checking it out to see if it runs. :P

[black-puppydog]

@celesteh I hope this version does something along the lines of what you thought when you started it. I'll be happy to iterate on this. I've been using this myself for a few days now and have to say even though it's a bit hap-hazard, I don't want to miss it any longer. :)
