Yeah, though I think this information currently isn’t available on a post-page when following links. My guess is we should just add it to the hover-preview somewhere, probably by just applying the same grey/black distinction to the title in there.
I guess you guys running the site like monochrome. While it’s ok enough to differentiate on the homepage, where blog titles are big and bold, I doubt using that scheme will be effective with hover.
Besides, that will requires readers to reach out and move their mouse over the link for 1 second, squint for a while to find whether it’s grey or black, and then move it out and wait another 1 second for the preview to go off; in contrast to just glance at the circle icon to find out. No-brainer IMO.
Yeah, it seems pretty plausible to me that read status should be indicated by that circle, though we were also considering using the circle for other things, like epistemic status for example.
When I use the site it shows posts I’ve already visited as a lighter grey while unvisited posts a dark grey/black.
