When I started writing this post I was initially not going to come with examples and just see what you guys would say without my input.

But I decided to inspect a few ideas visually and document them.

One issue is that if I make it savable from the front page it might look weird saying '1 comment save'. Then I realized this will look different depending if someone has the 'username on right' theme (which I run).

It also needs to look right if it's their own post and there are also options to edit and delete.

Then I also experimented with and idea of having '...' be like a drop down menu you could open. And then a similar idea of using a caron (opposite of a carot) to indicate a menu.

I decided to put this in a poll format, one because I want to test images in polls, two because it will randomize the order and I don't really want to present these in any order. I don't know if voting on them will be productive or not because some of the options will result in a few of these cases depending on if they are OP. I'm more interested in your thoughts than your votes.

Recommendation:

My saved faves tab says "The Goat Matrix".

Perhaps "Goat Matrix Faves" or "Goat Matrix Saved"?

My preference would be to divide everything with pipes:

My last line is alphabetical, if you decide to add more.

As I've stated before, IMO every GUI should have light/dark and basic/advanced/expert modes. Perhaps also clean/cluttered/custom too - or phone/desktop/custom. I like my version above, but if more features were added, I'd like the ... or a hamburger.

I have not tried GoatMatrix on my phone yet. I try to use my phone as little as possible.

I guess those are votable. I should change the max width of images when they are in a poll.
