Bring back Side by Side Diff View

[tclark]

I really don’t like the stacked diff views and clicking from tab to tab to see changes. It was much easier when it was in a window and I could see side-by-side diffs. Please bring it back!

Please vote here to bring this back (you can still keep everything else):

Add back full screen Compose window with side-by-side diffs

Just last week I was able to see side-by-side diffs of code changes from composer if I opened composer up full screen. But not that mode doesn’t seem to be available anymore. Can you please add it back? Looking at code diffs is a critical part of using compose, and it’s much harder to see the diffs vertically all in one pane.

Really needed

Isn’t the side-by-side view appreciated by the majority? What was the rationale behind removing it?

I also think it’s a fundamental tool for the app’s UX. And I’ll go further—if it supported implementing a diff view with the semanticDiff extension, that would be a huge differentiator.
