Description

  • After opening media (images, video, galleries) in the full screen lightbox display, a user should be able to swipe up to open another media in full screen from users, hashtags or lists one follows.
  • Media in full screen would, at the bottom, show the user, a follow button, first line from any text in the container post, a "more" link to open the main post, and post action buttons (fave, reshare/quote, bookmark, reply).
  • Alt text would display above the post summary text
  • Swiping up may either pull from the latest posts or random posts from the aforementioned sources.

This can work like how Tumblr's app currently works. This should also be an optional setting which can be turned on/off in settings. Reaction buttons can also be switched in settings from bottom to lower or upper corners.

Usefulness

  • Would allow users who are more interested in image/video to scroll mostly in fullscreen;
  • Would be a benefit to artists.
