I can’t recall, but was it hidden when empty for everyone but the staff and uploader?
 
I’ve essentially zero knowledge about all the code details behind the recent changes, so if there’s some technical aspect for why the Description needs to stay all the time, then that’s just how it has to be.  
Or even just keeping it there so there isn’t an appearing/disappearing UI element is fair enough too.
 
My only big issue with it personally is the magical flying Edit button. Dang thing is always at the end of whatever text is in the description. So it floats around from image to image. Very annoying to update descriptions.  
That’s my main reason for wanting the description header back.

I can’t really code anything for the site at the moment. Could you at least add unique classnames to the Download/DS/View/VS links so that I can make a userscript to restore them to what was the default for over six years?

I’m good with the description being visible when empty for OP’s purposes - gives a place for that edit button - but for everyone else it does feel vestigial.
 
Putting the “Description” header back on would also be a good thing, but would also exacerbate the problem of an empty description taking up space. I think, then, that the empty description might just be to reinforce that space as being where to find the description, which is too indirect for my liking. That is, you either know that’s where the description would be, or you have a description with no label. I would much prefer the description to have a title when it is visible, and hidden any other time, as you suggest.

What’s the reasoning for having the Description visible even when it’s empty?  
Also: Is returning the header bar to the description for the edit icon and “Description” text on the “to do” list?

Yes. Artist credit is currently stalled for a bit for backend reasons, but the UI of it is essentially figured out. Screenshots will come soon.
 
In regards to future plans and that post: 1 is rather annoying, I don’t think we have a generic class right now to kill on limited desktop widths. 2 will probably be resolved by a complete rethink of styling of links on headers. 3 is intentional.

I’m cool with that executive decision, but please don’t extend that to everything else that’s been brought up. It’s been a couple days since anything’s changed, and I know you said you were probably going to revisit the metabar after a week or so, but with things in their current state it’d be nice to go over what the game plan is.
 
From my understanding, artist credit is the next big priority, after which you’ll focus on UI tweaking, right? I didn’t want this dev comment to get lost in the shuffle after discussion of the view dropdown.

Swapping the full and short positions. Short will be referred to on the button as “Tagless”. I’ll go back to a cookie-based or even JS storage-based solution if it turns out short is the common use case.  
I’d prefer to have statistics and thus to know if this is really the way to go, but unfortunately it’ll have to be experimental in nature.
 
Scratch that, we’ll leave it alone for the time being.

I don’t see how “post” on both posts and comments is more consistent than “post” on posts and “comment” on comments. “Post on both message input fields” is but I think most people are going to mentally separate the two.

Well, the metabar hasn’t had any additional icons added except technically the down-arrows (which came along with moving the icon-buttons into the dropdowns, for a net change of smaller icons).

The premium I was referring to was the uploader and meta-bars.  
And I had never heard of any staff having issues with the post/sticky buttons until you brought up that fix the other day. [Which, yes, I know that doesn’t mean it wasn’t happening.]  
And yeah “write” with an icon is technically taking up less space. But looks like it’s taking up more due to the icon standing out as something separate.
 
And as I said: Most of this is just personal observation/taste. Not something concrete/functional I have an issue with.

Space isn’t at a premium in the comment box area at all, and Write used to be, on comments “Leave a Comment”. The idea was to replace inconsistent and redundant wording with quickly-recognizable icons (in part because us moderators were managing to mistake “Stick topic” for “Post a reply”; a big sign that buttons had issues with immediate recognition).  
I suspect actually that your feeling of clutter comes from the extra stuff moderators have; most people don’t have to contend with a loose pile of topic-control tools under the post box. I’ll fix that eventually, but it’s low priority unless we still hit the wrong buttons.

Btw, the icons on comments and forum posts look much better now, way less confusing.
 
I dunno. For me at least, it’s starting to make things look kinda cluttered.  
And especially unessesary on things like the “write” and “preview” tabs.
 
It was said that space was a premium and some of the recent organization issues was because there wasn’t enough space to fit the info, and now MORE space is being taken up by adding pictures next to everything.
 
But I can admit that’s mostly a personal aesthetic issue.

This is my idea of my ideal, best-of-all-worlds situation for the view buttons:  
  1. User setting for preferred link type, to dictate which button becomes the default when things get narrow  
  2. Keep dropdowns for mobile and narrow views  
  3. Shrink labels off of metabar in general for limited desktop and reduce view buttons to dropdown as space becomes a premium  
  4. Expand view buttons to all four (and return VS/DS labels) if space permits
     
    Btw, the icons on comments and forum posts look much better now, way less confusing.

Having one option as a dropdown menu is only going to piss off the people who use the one that gets put under the dropdown. I think it should either be an option, or made separate buttons again.
 
In the event that the separate buttons are brought back, I suppose if you want to keep them as icons you could add an “S” or something to the short-filename buttons to distinguish them, if that’s possible.

I already made a comment in the other thread, but I suppose this is the actual feedback one, so I just want to add that I too would prefer separate buttons or a settings option, particularly while things like “subscribe” and “related,” options I never use, take up so much room.

Either that, or an option for users to choose which one should be default.
