Colonel_mortis Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Needing an "Other Settings" panel in Account Settings is a bit of a red flag that maybe all of those settings-related things should be unified to make them more coherent. I see no reason for ignored users to be separate Notification settings has a slightly more complex UI, but I can't see any blockers to bringing that UI into settings, and doing so would bring it inline with other sites (GitHub, Stack Overflow, reddit, and iirc also facebook etc) Profile settings is more arguable because having it as a dialog when viewing your own profile is good, but the profile settings is also where I think the most benefit can be gained - users expect their signature settings to be in their profile, because that's where their other public-facing things are configured, and they expect to be able to change other things by going to settings. This probably needs more consideration of the tradeoffs, and maybe finding a neat solution, but my feeling at the moment is that unifying them would make sense.
