The active server arrow is bugged. It’s also not enough of an indicator. The entire list item should be highlighted.
-
I find these tabs annoying. I only have a handful of servers and contacts, and would find this list to be much more useful if it just listed them all at the same time.
-
The list items are too short and the letters overflow the highlight effect.
Also, the text contrast levels for the titles are too low.
-
The channels just don’t look good. The icons are way too big and bright, and are more eye catching than the text. Also, the gradient effect isn’t very good.
-
The chat bubbles are unnecessary. They are bright with dark text, on a dark theme. This makes them very hard to look at and read in contrast to the rest of the UI.
-
This header looks like in input.
-
The contrast levels between text, icons, and background are very straining for the eye.
-
Font sizes are all over the place. Channel names are tiny, client names are massive and bold.
-
Off toggles should have the bar be gray as well.
-
It’s almost impossible to see that “24” is actually an input.
-
The hex pattern is super intrusive in chat windows.
-
Overall color and contrast levels are all over the place. The bright colors are very neon, and at the same time some of the text is very washed out and hard to read.
I made my own custom theme that fixes all of these problems. I modified font sizes, font color contrast, and removed intrusive neon colored things that make it difficult to read text. Made active menu items more prominent, and the inactive ones less contrasted so they don’t draw as much attention. Also adjusted padding and list item sizes to feel less crowded.
Here’s a sample of what that looks like for reference:
