Less features or the same features in a simplified UI?

Less features. The menu is full of weird things I haven't played with and which I'm kind of not interested in playing with.
Maybe reorganising the features would suffice, but it feels like I have a multi-tool where I just use the mini screwdriver.
Actually it's worse now, I just looked at it again and realised it's gotten bigger.
Don't make me think. Great UX book.
Maybe I just give you an AI chat bot :)
What do you use from Amethyst? My issue in the past is that each user wanted to use a different feature. Trying to please them all maybe made us please nobody.. 🤔
Maybe move the "feeds" section somewhere else, none of that is important enough to be taking up that much space from the menu.
Making that main Manu shorter would make it less overwhelming for people
New feature! You can customise your menu (and bottom bar) to only the features you use!
No need to create a simpler client ♥️♥️
Maybe the default is simple and people can activate "new features"?
I think would be great, if there are toggles to disable features.
Settings / side menu
Yes would be great.
A lot of what I use, I set up and forget:
- amber auth
- tor
- relays
- profile
- qr/camera profile sharing
- bookmarks
- drafts
Things I explored but didn't use eventually:
- live streams
- scrolling mode shorts (rarely use)
- custom feeds
My suggestion, for new users, have a limited featureset and introduce a wizard which is nice ux for promoting the other features and enabling them. And then an easy way to turn them off... Its not an easy problem honestly imo.
If this is what the average user sees when they log in, I would personally be little scared off. Like a flight passenger seeing the pilots flight controls.
