Explore rooms doesn't make good use of space

[kittykat]

Steps to reproduce

1. Where are you starting? What can you see?
2. What do you click?
3. More steps…

Intended result and actual result

What did you expect?

Explore rooms shows me list of rooms in a space (ideally it also tells me what space I'm looking at)

I am not expecting to know how many members a space has from the explore rooms view

e.g.

What happened instead?

A large portion of the view is taken up with unused space and as a user, when I want to explore rooms, I'm not interested in the information about the space

Application version and app store

Element 1.3.4 (RC)

Will you send logs?

No

I think that's a good enough improvement to ship but, there are some things missing that would help people exploring:

• Search
• Labelling of 'subspaces'

There are some extra places where same layout/design is used

When user tap on link invite to room

when user tap on link invite to space

@niquewoodhouse do we want to update all of them at once, or only "explore room" screen?

I suggest change everywhere but leave description and "people you might now" section visible for invites.

@fedrunov that sounds good, thanks for suggesting

@niquewoodhouse small problem:

member count group has background and on black theme it's not visible at "explore room" screen. Since there is padding for image, it breaks left alignment of views

Invite	Explore

There is no problem on light theme - background is always visible.

I suggest we file this as a separate ticket with minor priority

Will be in Element 1.3.18
