#959 Remove comments from /feed and redesign the page

Opened by keeb · 7/4/2026

Problem statement

Comments on /feed add clutter without pulling their weight — the feed's job is surfacing what operatives are shipping, not hosting threads. The page layout as a whole is due for a rethink.

Proposed solution

Two parts:

  1. Remove comments from /feed. Drop the comment UI (composer, threads, counts) from feed posts. Discussion already has a home on lab issues via ripples.
  2. Redesign the feed. Rework the page around scanning and discovery — stronger post presentation, clearer author/tier treatment, better density and hierarchy on mobile and desktop. Open to design exploration rather than a prescribed layout.

Alternatives

  • Keep comments but collapse them behind a click (still carries the feature's weight).
  • Redesign without removing comments (misses the simplification that motivates the redesign).
  • Remove comments only, defer the redesign (splits the work but leaves the page dated).
