So the hover cards landed on mastodon.social… I didn't even make it a full day before creating a userstyle to forcibly disable them >_>

mcc

@forza4galicia Because otherwise it covers up site content like this

@mcc Yes. I think hover cards should have another design or only being displayed in screens with sufficient room for that without hide anything
@mcc I am having an idea. I hope to get that. Why don't put all cards in the right or left margin (if there are place for that) and erase then when one exit from the zone of that contact's article/commentary? Or is that not so good idea?

@forza4galicia That's interesting, maybe you should suggest that to the Mastodon project! But it doesn't really make sense in the advanced mode, which is what I use.

Advanced mode is basically already like that but with clicking instead of hovering.

@mcc Then is better, by default, deactivate that in advanced mode, and, in general, have a setting to deactivate hover cards... (a moment)
