[Feature Request] Reddit Image: Option to keep Metadata about xextension-redditimage HOT 8 CLOSED

I have made some tests and I can indeed see the subreddit information!

from xextension-redditimage.

Sure, thats "Metadaten anzeigen"

from xextension-redditimage.

@rom-1 A new release is available.

from xextension-redditimage.

@rom-1 I've made something that seems to work properly. Here is a screenshot so you can give me your thoughts. If you think this is usable, I'll make a version with that.

Metadata are now in a detail section (you can customize it with CSS if needed). It is collapsed by default.

Here is the view once you clicked on it.

Let me know what you think!

On the side note, thank you for that idea. It was much needed with the new reddit rss format.

@aledeg Thank you for the implementation. Here are my thoughts:

• The subreddit information seems to be missing? Your solution works if the rss feed only consists of one subreddit (i.e. /r/funny), but if you have a more general approach (i.e. /top/.rss) where multiple different subreddit posts are accumulated, the information about the subreddit is missing. In my screenshot above, the subreddit is mentioned. (/r/interestingasfuck)

• I understand the effort to hide the metadata within a dropdown to keep the post free of clutter. But for better usability, I would prefer to not hide it. Just keep it "boring" simple and simply show the information. At least for these 3 reasons:

  • I have no idea how a Smartphone RSS Reader App (e.g. FeedMe) might react if you hide it like this. You may run into compatibility issues with Smartphone Apps. Most apps are not compatible with dynamic elements within posts.
  • If the user decides do enable the RedditImageExtention option "show metadata", I would think he wants to see the metadata. It is important to him. Don't hide it. ;)
  • Personally, I am using the "[comments]" button very often to get directly to the comments section or to show videos (as the FeedMe Smartphone App is somehow not able to read the path to embedded video files). Having to unfold the metadata first would be an unnecessary extra-step in my workflow.

Hope this makes sense. ;)

Thank you for your insight. I will keep it boring simple :)
For the subreddit information, I haven't done a thing to manipulate the content. I took it as-is so if there is some information about it. My guess is it will be displayed. I'll check that and I'll get back to you.

Great, thanks for double-checking. :)

@rom-1 could you translate "Display metadata" in German for me?
