Remove wasteful top header, chat and other elements. If I'm to use the website instead of the apps as default, it needs to be more efficient - not pretty.

Right now saidit is bad browsing on a non FullHD PC, and by the looks of your mockups, 30ish% of the screen is still wasted with the new proposal.

Edit: Its more like 70% is wasted space.

You can turn off chat in your user preferences.

On non-full PCs, try browsing m.saidit.net, it's designed for narrower screens. Or try the apps https://saidit.net/s/SaidIt/wiki/index#wiki_apps_.26amp.3B_clients

I'm currently using the android app from fdroid and having a great true black user experience on my AMOLED. 😎

The header has about 10 critical links in it.. where would those go? Also chat does not show on mobile by default.

The header doesn't have to be 5-6 rows tall to still display two rows of menus etc.

The problem is header.bottom. left which seems to have since sort of locked expando or else I'd just block the elements myself.

I love it man. It just needs a little SaidIt logo somewhere.
