User feedback about rfc-vote HOT 9 OPEN

Many people (including me) like the voting var on the page, it looks nice

Just to clarify: I do love the bar as well, it looks great and its a nice indicator, I just don't find it very intuitive as a "vote action".

Hey @vsergiu93, @MohammadAlhallaq, @Plytas, @joshbonnick, and @brendt. Can someone provide feedback? What are your thoughts on adding 2 buttons for voting? If yes, where should they be placed? If no, how do we make the voting more intuitive? Your opinion is significant guys. Here are a couple of options

Hey @SerhiiCho, honestly to me all of the options look good, but if I have to pick one I would pick this one:

In any case nice work.

• When checking another RFCs, currently you see the small box with "Read more" and need to click on the "Read more" link to get there. Maybe the whole thumbnail could be a link instead?

That what we had before, some people prefer link for some reason. I can change it back, I liked it more. We'll see

when click on the "Yes" or "No" button counts, you could be redirect to the submit form

Totally agree on that one!

the form opens but there is no scroll down so if the bar is on the bottom part of the screen, you may not see the form extending.

Also, a great point!

Maybe this whole part could be resolved by having a "vote" button that opens a new dedicated form (in a new page)?

I don't know about this one. Many people (including me) like the voting var on the page, it looks nice. But I get your point, it would have been nice to make it more clear.

Thank you, @theofidry, for these tips, I'll definitely consider your suggestions. You are a huge help 👍🏻 We'll keep this issue open

I'm thinking to add a feature discovery popover like this to make it more clear about how to vote:

It basically shows up only once, and after you click "Got it!" button, it will not bother anymore.

If the intent is to keep the current design definitely. But as stated, I questioned that feature [using the vote bar as an action – the bar itself is cool] because it does not feel intuitive (to the point where a help message is welcomed).

That said it also has the benefit of requiring less efforts.

Here is another solution, adding 2 buttons like you suggested.

I'm not 100% sure about these styles, might think of something else. Maybe placing them above the bar or something.

Oh looks awesome!

Maybe I would also add a vote button next to in-between "no" and "edit"? In the current screenshot this would feel a bit superfluous but when the RFC is much longer, could help to jump to that section? But then again maybe you don't want people to "skip"... So actually not sure about this

Having gray buttons does look better IMO, but it's just my cup of tea
