been feeling like it was time for an avatar change. something that feels more like me. if you're thinking 'who is this?' here’s a before and after

I’ve been thinking about how to make Linear’s overlay sheets more familiar yet still powerful.
v2:
- Multiple detents for focus/multitasking
- Optional gestures for added efficiency that don’t interfere with expected behaviors
- Familiar transitions
Feedback welcome

This deserves some follow up now that OpenAI has made a bunch of updates and my opinions have changed.
- New message input gives more space to add labels to the controls which is needed for the consumer market.

This is fun—adjusted the interpolation like you suggested so you can peek at the background while still touching down and if you flick up with enough velocity, you can cancel the dismiss as if you dragged it back up.
Thanks again for the detailed feedback!

Some other examples:
- Tapping on a property itself to jump directly to the selection menu (status in this demo)
- Displaying customer requests (dismiss is a bit janky here 😵💫)

Curious if this version makes the connection stronger for you? (Bluesky compression is probably going to make a lot of this hard to see...)
- Interpolate background scale, blur, and opacity relative to the dismiss gesture
- More vertical movement on entrance and exit
- Less background blur

- More vertical movement on entrance and exit
- Less background blur

A new overlay sheet pattern I've been designing for Linear.
- Smooth entrance + snappy exit
- Lightweight visuals
- Gesture driven: drag down to dismiss, swipe back to pop (or dismiss!)

I’ve seen apps using progressive blurs to transition content off-screen or behind elements and they often end up looking messy and making the exiting content a focal point.
One way you can avoid this is to reduce the max blur radius, and combine it with a gradient fade-out.

The latest ChatGPT app updates feel a bit off. Removing avatars makes sense for more text width, but it makes the conversation much harder to parse and changes the… vibe…
New iOS composer too feels like a step backwards right as the platforms seemed to be aligning on a consistent design.

My favorite way to fine-tune transitions is to build a set of sliders into a prototype to tweak timing parameters on device, as you're using it.

I’d love to remove this control from Bluesky. I’m losing a lot of scroll gestures because they originate from its hit target and tapping on the Home tab (immediately below it!) serves the same function.
Also, it’s weirdly not a circle?
