New Editor Interface
I love the new editor interface. It's much more intuitive. I like that the status menu bar thingy at the top stays in place - it makes navigation much easier. I miss being able to see previous frames when drawing new frames, but I think that is probably an improvement and will get used to the change.
On the bookmark column on the left side of the interface, each frame gets a bookmark, which defaults to being called "Frame 1". I wonder if this is a problem.
Also, the "Add Text", "Add Frame", and "Preview" buttons on the top right corner of the interface cover over part of my comic making it hard to edit existing frames in that space.
Overall, great work y'all!

Re: Reader - Classic view - zoom
I just tried it, and double-tap-to-zoom does work (though the transition is a bit jumpy, as is scrolling in zoomed-view). I would prefer to be able to pinch-to-zoom since then I could dictate how much to zoom in. The default zooms in more than I would like. Zoom also works in frame view, though with similar issues.
FYI, I was reading https://globalcomix.com/c/i-m-inside-you. I'm actually using the latest version of Lineage OS (previously CyanogenMod) with the latest version of Firefox for mobile. That probably complicates things a bit :)

Re: Reader - Classic view - zoom
Huh. I tried that and couldn't get it to work. Firefox on Android.
Re: Translators
FYI: I received a notification via email about this thread even though I never commented on it.
Reader - Classic view - zoom
When reading in Classic mode in either auto or fixed mode, I would like to have the ability to zoom in and scroll through the page as if it were a PDF. I'd like to be able to pinch-to-zoom and swipe-to-scroll on mobile. You'd need some sort of toggle to do the same on desktop.
Creator mode - edit frame - edit edge
I would like to be able drag an entire edge when editing my comic's frames in Creator mode.
Currently, I can only edit frames by dragging corner anchor points.

Re: Confused about follow button
Hi!
Sorry, those were two unrelated issues I put in the same comment.
The "follow yourself" issue was just confusing to me. I wasn't sure why I had two separate profiles I could switch between even though I only signed up for one account.
The follow button confused me because the plus-sign indicates to me that the section is going to expand to show me more information. That assumption was enhanced by the number in parenthesis, which indicated there was more information to show.
Why not just have a simple button that says "follow" a la Twitter or Tumblr?
These are just my personal impressions. Take them with however many grains of salt you want :)

Re: Can't figure out how to save in Creator mode
Cool.
Maybe consider having some sort of indicator that it's saved? I dunno.
Also, maybe have a more obvious way to get back to the main edit screen. A "back" button or a "close editor" button or something.

I selected my frames. There is no "save" button. How do I get back to the "Edit Release Settings" page without losing my changes?

I'm following myself!
Agh! My user profile just followed my artist profile! Why do I have two profiles on the same account? Is this like a yin-yang zen thing?

Confused about follow button
On artist pages, the button on the left that says "Follow".
It has a "plus-sign" icon on the left and lists the user's number of followers(?) in parenthesis on the right. This indicates to me that if I click the plus sign it'll display a drop-down of the user's followers. Instead, clicking it adds me as a follower. It's just an unexpected behavior.
Also, why can't I follow you, Nimloth? And why do I have a "user" profile and a separate "artist" profile? What's the difference?

Reader cuts off left side of pages
In reader view, in Classic mode and Fixed width, the reader cuts off the left side of the page. I can't scroll all the way left, but I can overscroll on the right side.
