(Suggested Feature) Improve End-User Accessibility

Suggestion:

I have noticed that within the last weeks, the dark / light mode option has been removed from the "burger" menu (browser interface) and is now only available via the usage of a mouse over operation within the top left logo image.

As far as I can see, the redaction of this ("burger") menu option further limits accessibility of this functionality.

I also consider that the limited amount of links for both the Terms of Service, the Minds Teespring store and the Android mobile application (as well as other links), which are only displayed within the bottom portion of the left hand sidebar of the Newsfeed page also reduces end-user accessibility (and can be easily missed by users).

Also, I consider that the limited access to the Minds Teespring store restricts the promotion of associated Minds merchandising and reduces the ability for Minds Inc. to have an extra revenue stream.

Therefore I suggest including the various links within the "burger" menu (or produce a new page containing all associated links which is associated with the "burger" menu).

Finally, since the last update, many users have been critical about the lack of easy access to both their own blog articles and an overview of all groups. I further recommand that both the "legacy" group and blog pages are included within the "burger" menu.

    Agreed fully Mark. Was chatting with @javanick yesterday about this yesterday - this might however need breaking up into seperate issues so that we can address them one by one.

    The only bit I have an issue with is

    Finally, since the last update, many users have been critical about the lack of easy access to both their own blog articles and an overview of all groups. I further recommend that both the "legacy" group and blog pages are included within the "burger" menu."

    No issue on my end with giving users this ability, but I feel that would overpopulate the hamburger menu, and perhaps we could find a simpler way to take care of it.

    @benhayward.ben,
    I agree about the overcrowding issue but also think that there should be some form of persistent availability to both the "legacy" group and blog sections, as well as the ToS, Teespring store and Android download page.

    The "burger" menu is becoming fairly crowded already and I am going have a further think about this issue.
