I wanted to suggest a small UI/UX tweak that might help streamline the posting experience.
Currently, when creating a post, Summit displays a horizontal formatting bar above the keyboard with options like:
Italic
Bold
Numbered List
Spoiler Text
Text Emojis
Add Link
Add Image
(etc.)
While this is functional, having to swipe through the bar to find the desired option can feel a bit clunky, especially on smaller screens or when you're quickly trying to format something.
My Suggestion:
Instead of a swipeable bar, what if there was a single expandable button above the keyboard? When tapped, it could expand into a radial menu (or option wheel). The most commonly used options (like Bold, Italic, Image, etc.) could be placed in the center circle, with the rest arranged around it in an outer ring. Think of it as a compact, gesture-friendly hub for quick formatting.
This could:
Reduce screen clutter
Speed up post composition
Be more visually intuitive for users already familiar with similar UIs in mobile games or design apps
The app currently offers a way to reorder the list of formatting options as a solution for this problem. I think most screens, even the smallest ones, can easily fit 7 different formatting options. If you want easier access to formatting tools you use often you can reorder the tools so tools you often use are at the front of the list. If there is any particular reason you cannot do this or if there is a different use case let me know.
