onions on new like UI

the new like UI is... confusing <--- guy who likes to hoard notifications

can't tell what likes are actually new. I have 4 new notifs but all I see is a wall of likes, most of which i know are old because i hoard notifs like a dragon. i know from context clues that the order is new-old but maybe it'd be nice to have 'unread' likes highlighted a different color.

can't seemingly delete specific like notifs? maybe i only want to hoard notifs for a certain chicken, now i can only delete all of them.

i know the way i play is a bit of an edge case but this is my impression to seeing this change when i rolled around

As someone who also hoards notifs I agree with this ^^

It was pretty confusing to understand and now I gotta pay extra attention to see who's been liked

I can make these changes yeah! Both deleting likes individually and also indicating which ones are read/unread. Thanks for the feedback yes emoji

I feel like the top bar of the site is also getting very crowded think emoji I have to pull my browser width pretty wide to not have all the links overflow onto a second line. Could we possibly have some of the icons pared down or shrunk? I feel like things like the chicken background toggle (camera icon) are options that don't need to be toggled so frequently they couldn't just be in the settings menu.

Oh coincidentally I just happened to push a change to condense the top bar a little - timestamp now pops into the menu bar below on smaller screens, and the margin is smaller on smaller screens. Will poll about the toggle buttons!

For me at least this still makes it a bit chunky/weird-aligned! My window isn't especially small (this is ~1575 px wide) but it just comes out odd-looking unless I bump the window out by about 20 pixels:

Edit: New update has fixed this!

@infel happy that it helps with the issues! Figured giving people the option to toggle between the two views might make the most sense.
