My first reaction to the new page was: What is happening now!?! My second impression was: why is everything 50% bigger, did I Ctrl+Scroll to zoom by accident? And my third was: where are the diff count squares? Also I just found the first bug: when having text selected and trying to extend that selection with shift, that no longer works. Also I was just searching a bit for a commit message because since it is now completely grey, I kinda missed it. |

The problem (as mentioned by others), isn't the scaling, the scaling is actually the same as before. The issue is the If this is for accessibility purposes, then it should be it's own feature preview or option that the user can toggle. Another issue that's not mentioned yet is that commits with really long descriptions now have a "Show more" button instead of just showing the full description. If I'm clicking on a commit, I probably want to read the description. Please don't make me click multiple times. The text could also be made brighter and easier to read as it was before. See with this example commit: mpv-player/mpv@d2f3b66 |

Honestly, I liked the old design better. I hope there will be an option to switch between them. |

The new design seems to struggle with tab indentation in files. For the sake of completeness I'll mention that the below screenshots are using 4-space tabs in my user settings but the effect in the new design is the same with the default of 8. |

The default-collapsed commit text seems to utterly miss the point of the commit details page. It's also much harder to read – the previous page used #1f2328 on #f1f8ff, which has an excellent contrast of Lc 98.0, but the new page uses #59636e on #fff which works out to only Lc 80.5, which is well below the preliminary APCA Bronze threshold of Lc 90. In conjunction with the smaller font size (was 13px, now 12px), the commit text is now very difficult for me to read. Duplicating the first line of the commit text (once in the big heading, once in the monospace body) seems a bit odd: Lastly, the line-height of the code is uncomfortably large, I really hope you don't intend to use this style across the whole website going forwards. |

When you start writing a comment, the textbox now expands off-screen: so you have to scroll down again to see the button to submit the comment now. If the comment box were not collapsed by default, this would be solved. The page also doesn't seem to have the standard GitHub footer, which doesn't help. On wide screens (and by "wide" I mean "16:9 1440p"), having to mouse all the way over to the right-hand side to add a comment makes it really hard to see which line you're commenting on (unless you want to open the dialog, check the line number on the right (which says "R" for some reason?), pull your eyes back to the left-hand side to check the line number there, and try again if you aimed wrong): And the tooltips on the comment widget buttons ("Heading", "Bold", etc.) appear to have been dropped, which sucks. |

feat: Custom Endpoint Agents (experimental) with Stable Diffusion When using the custom endpoint agent with Ollama and a model that supports tools, the API call to Stable Diffusion is not executed, and here is what is returned by Librechat. I also do not see any errors in the logs. When using it with OpenAI, the request is sent to the Stable Diffusion API. |

Comments which were made weren't being shown and instead were showing an infinite loading panel. Switching back to the regular view, I could see the comments and was able to add a new one. |

regarding relative dates, obviously github users are mostly programmers, it's not the average social network crowd. Obviously they expect detail and punctuality. |

Hi sorry this is the wrong place, I'm not familiar with etiquette on GitHub, but need eyes on a proposed UI/UX change, premise: Metamask has two major terminology issues that have caused damage over the years to noobs. calling it "create account" when really it isn't creating anything, it is simply revealing the next (derivation) account from the index (always the same always in the same order). If Metamask would have changed that to "reveal account" and "manage external key" for adding a private key, years back, it would have saved thousands of people from rugging themselves and aided people understanding seeds much more intuitively and easily without their first exposure to DEFI being misleading terminology. Metamask isn't the standard that should be followed in this regard but every wallet does. Metamask changing its terminology could do alot of simple good, to simple folk. Conclusion: change "create account" to "reveal account" and change "import private key/seed" to "manage external key/seed" (I believe people looking to add another seed or key to Metamask will inherently know this means add, without stating "add" which can confuse those unfamiliar with how the wallet basically works as an interface not a storage facility. |

More about compact line height
* Compact line height user setting 🆕: * **What's our plan?** Based on your feedback about the height of diff lines in the new parge, we are adding a user setting under the ⚙️ that you can enable if you want more compact lines. When enabled, the height of diff lines will be `20px` (same as the classic commit details page), otherwise (and by default) they will be `24px`. * **Why a user setting?** It is important that this (and every) page on GitHub is accessible to everyone. [WCAG recommends a minimum of `24x24px` for click targets](https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/Understanding/target-size-minimum.html) because _some people with physical impairments cannot click small buttons that are close together_. The avatar (which appear when there are comments on a line) and button to add a comment are both important click targets on the line, which is why the default height of the line is 24px. We recognize that some users prefer (and are able to interact with) more compact lines and click targets, which is why we are introducing a user setting.
