Question for Summit users. Since I'm adding dim read posts as a setting per "layout type", do people think dim read posts should be on by default for all layout types or just the card based ones or maybe only the ones where the image occupies the entire width of the screen.
I think personally dim read posts works the best for layouts with views that are large as they make it way more obvious when a post is read. However for tiny views such as compact or any of the list views, dimming just the title is enough and it is actually kind of detrimental to the viewing experience if the entire card is dimmed as it makes things like the image harder to see.
So to reiterate, should dim read posts be on by default for (1) all layouts types, (2) only card based layout types or (3) only layout types with full width images?
Maybe make it available for all layouts but keep it turned off by default.
I use compact view and I'm fine with only the title being dimmed.
