I'd also say from the UX perspective there's a bit of an expectation that [ left side in a list right side in expanded view ] tends to denote a relationship between the two when in fact there is none.
Feels like an aggregator that didn't want to just be an aggregator. It does look pretty, though.
I agree. I clicked the links on the left expecting some sort of in-page action, but was met with tabs being opened which is counter-intuitive to what one has come to expect with in-site/in-app menus.
Or perhaps I've just been spoiled by UI's like that of Alien Blue for Reddit?
If you're going to split the screen I think it needs to be split in half for there to be an expectation that they're independent, unrelated elements.
I think its because when you first load it the left is smaller than the right and you dont notice the site titles.
Been clicking for a few minutes and still unsure whats going to happen when I click something
