Link to this talk page is buried and hard to find

I almost did not leave any new messages here, because I only accidentally found the link to this talk page.

The link should not be buried in the closed "Filter changes" menu.

Many people may want to give feedback here, or ask questions, but will never scroll down to the bottom of that menu, or will forget that the link is buried there.

Put the link at the top of the menu, and out of the menu.

A feedback link was available during the whole Beta process. We have received many comments that have allowed the development tram to improve that tool. In theory, the feedback link you used was supposed to be removed, now that the filters are default for every user.

The Filter menu is the most used element of the tool for people who take action. It is the best place to put the feedback link. That link is always visible: the bottom of the menu is stick to the bottom of your browser window. There is no need to scroll, even if the page is really compact.

Thanks. That is an improvement making it always visible in the filter menu without scrolling. I hope you didn't mean that developers were no longer accepting or wanting feedback. Please don't remove the feedback link. Most people will not hunt around for Phabricator threads to give feedback. Or come to Mediawiki. Unless a feedback link from Wikipedia takes them there.

We don't plan to remove that link. We still need it to have a way to be aware of bugs.

If someone wants to suggest a change or an improvement, we will look at it but it may be implemented later.

Have a like like that is done on more and more tools because of the reason you mention: people won't come to Phabricator or elsewhere because they aren't aware of it.
