Jul 17, 2018 at 21:40 comment added Joe Friend Staff @Rinzwind As mentioned by others, footer is unchanged in terms of size. Stack Exchange top bar (the black one) is cross-site and can't be integrated with the site branding (orange one on AU).
Jul 14, 2018 at 15:10 comment added Andrea Lazzarotto @Seth not to play the designer's advocate here (I am a developer, after all, not a designer) but whitespace also makes sense sometimes. I know for sure that developers often tend to try and cover every pixel with something, forgetting to leave space so the content can breath. IMHO the bar is not that bad.

Jul 11, 2018 at 2:42 comment added RobotHumans I like the top bar more than the bottom bar. The header is intrinsically more important than the footer. Outright removing one without at least hide until scroll the other seems very very odd.
Jul 10, 2018 at 17:58 comment added Seth Mod @Dan It is? I didn't see that in the post. That's really not cool..
Jul 10, 2018 at 6:55 comment added Rinzwind @Seth oh that's correct but I always thought it was too high :D :D Had to sneak it in there :D
Jul 10, 2018 at 6:46 comment added Dan Those changes are network wide, and I strongly think they will not address them, at least not in this post. Also, the top bar (the Ubuntu sites navigation bar) is going to be dropped, so that's a quite a bit of extra vertical space already.
Jul 10, 2018 at 1:18 comment added Seth Mod It's hard to tell from the picture, but I think the footer hasn't actually been made any bigger, if you look at how big it is now. I agree with your points about the orange bar though. It looks really bad right now with all that empty space there. Not to mention all the wasted space in the sidebar.
