"Shared" label takes a lot of space in Files list #41620

Description

@jancborchardt

There are some drawbacks to the recent change for the "Shared" label that came with the Vue rewrite:

  • The "Shared" label takes a lot of space in the files list and makes it look very busy
  • Now a lot of entries have the "Shared" label, making it actually more difficult to distinguish your "own" files and files of others at a glance
  • Somehow the avatars got smaller

Now we shouldn’t remove the "Shared" label altogether since it is an important indicator of state and it has also been there in prior versions.

Here are 2 other options we could go for:

  1. Medium with avatars + icons For internal shares coming from others, we use the proposal by @Clementine46 from Sharing icon not displayed for files shared to the user #38156
  2. Remove label for shares from others: This is basically back to how it was before, but keeping the layout and color improvement of the "Shared" label.
Current Medium with avatars + icons Remove label for shares from others
