Ok, let’s talk about the video player As we’ve talked about before, we know the video player is still a work in progress. We’ve heard your feedback and are working on a series of updates to address it:
Easier commenting We’re refining the player design with features such as better comment integration and gesture parity to make it easier to watch videos while scrolling the comments. There are a couple of different ways to do this, but one solution we’re looking into is making a swipe right navigation that takes you to a video’s comments where you can watch a thumbnail version of the video while joining the discussion about it.Improved performance We’re also actively working to address bug and performance issues to support different video resolutions, reduce buffering time, and improve video caching.
