Here are my suggestions
1. Use machine learning to for sentiment analysis to analyse comments, instead of the bots banning unnecessary based on keywords.
2. Have a score card for every users based on the number of users comment likes and shares for that particular users comments to give credibility to each users who commented reasonably over time. This could help users with good scores to avoid the mandated 40 character comments.
3. Their should be a dislike button for a users comment, this is like a vote down which will affect users scores over time. Although this could be abused by users who dislike someone who shares views that doesn't sit well with them.
4. Add a button for bookmarking posts I may want to view later maybe follow post is enough for that.
5. Let users have the options of viewing post from catégories they like or commented most.
Or notification of hot topics from that categories is good
Seun, whatever you do,dont add a dislike button. It will be abused. The bullying will rise exponentially. Put them through the pains of explaining why they dislike the comment. You will give the mob food when you add a dislike button.

Dear Nairalanders,

We are ramping things up. Here are some things we have done recently:

1. We gave Nairaland's theme a little facelift, fixing buttons, pagination, separators, and other little things.

2. We implemented a dark mode for Nairaland with the most intuitive UX: a sun toggle on your upper right.

3. We further relaxed the minimum character rule because many people were still struggling with it.

We are also trying to make our moderation bot (aka antispam bot) more accurate. Bear with us on that.

What else do you want us to work on?

Best Regards.
Omo, the way my eyes relax as I toggle the dark mode, eh. We needed this 10 years ago but thanks, sir.
That said, sir. The dark mode button is not intuitive as you said o. If you did not mention where it was, I won't have seen it.

Also, the borders on the buttons in dark mode are not that distinctive. I was searching for submit button just now.

One thing you can do is create the option of users choosing a style or UI of their choice. Multiple CSS file load options to signify choice of UI design every user prefers to style their dynamically loaded contents like posts, signatures, date time, site statistics, and more.

Mr Seun

That #1457.?? Dollar sign on the heading of the front page is weird. When I saw it for the first time, i thought it was the new cost of advertising.

Clicking on it then shows it's CBN's exchange rate. It would just be better if it has it's own bar just before the topics list, than has the exchange rate for the Top 3 currencies

E.g

USD-NGN: 1457.55 | EUR-NGN: 1495.33 GBP-NGN: 1965.44
