Since you last signed into the Tech Community
New email notification looks nice from graphical design point of view, but less useful on practice. If in old style notification I may see who, when and, most important, about supplied the post witho...
When i am not the first one to complain, then it must be really bad 🙂
Since you last signed into doesn't make sense when it comes for every notification. This is not summary.
Same title is very not helpful
I also don't like that huge image at the top. Now i always have to scroll down to get to the part i really care about. And on mobile this is just horrible. It puts that "Since you last" vertically. So it looks like
S
i
n
c
e
etc. So i have to scroll a lot to get to the message. Pixel XL, stock Android 10.
I can try the plain text format, but i like to have links in the emails and some sort of formatting. And why do i have to change to plain text. Just use some sort of focus groups to test your changes. I want to focus on getting information and discussion things with people here instead of fighting through your never changing design experiments lately..

I know Allen will you please listen to us users, we liked the old title for the subscriptions. Will you please put it back to the way it was??
With you wroot SergeiBaklan SusanBradleyGeek NunoAriasSilva
I dunno if only they would listen 😛
- AllenHopefully you have now all seen that put the subject of the email back to the old way is exactly what we have done.
The issue with the text getting squashed on mobile devices is actually an issue with how some mail clients handle the scaling of mail and we are looking to see what we can do to help here. Unfortunately its not like a website where we can simply hide the image for certain screensizes.
Allen- Have you only done this for html variant? I have switched to plain text and notification for this message came with "Since you".
Btw, i am using Outlook on my phone 😛
