Minor dashboard redesign (activity update layout + colors)

Chris Oelmueller requested to merge dashboard-redesign into master

What does this MR do?

Very small design and layout adjustments to activity updates on dashboard:

  • better color contrast
  • more bold elements in low-contrast situations
  • truncate posts later (display longer snippet)
  • improve post structure and quickreply position to avoid some linebreaks
  • small CSS refactoring included (just getting rid of duplicate definition)

How confident are you it won't break things if deployed?

I'm confident it's improving the overall layout!

How to test

Login as local testuser with dashboard updates and check the different types, quickreply etc in various screen widths and with short/long content

Release notes text

Die Anzeige von Updates auf dem Dashboard ist jetzt visuell strukturierter als zuvor. Euch wird sicher der fett gedruckte Text für die Informationen in der Kopfzeile auffallen. Es gab an der Stelle Verbesserungswünsche, da der recht helle Text teils zu dünn präsentiert wurde, um noch gut lesbar zu sein. Sehr wahrscheinlich passen wir in Zukunft das Aussehen dieser Texte nochmal ein wenig an.
