Hello! I have been using Trello for ages, and I have always been finding comments having poor usability: they are not clearly distinguishable in the card - empty field and filled comments look almost identical, and in general the Activity part of the card looks cluttered, so it is hard to notice the updates. For this reason, I usually use the Description field for all updates.
It would be great if the comments get a new design because they are much faster to add and have a time stamp.
Sounds interesting! I will try to sketch some more concrete ideas then, perhaps next week.
I agree. They could definitely take some inspiration from how comments are managed in Jira.
