What's the reasoning behind removing the chat button?

The chat and follow buttons were replaced by the small gear icon. My test users loved the chat button, and used it right away. I don't think they would notice that the chat button is a couple clicks away using the gear icon.

@Kamal-Patel Buttons were much better.

Yup...in fact let's have a chat about this now. Hold on, I can't find the chat button!

Bump! Removing the chat button in favor of the gear icon ... thoughts? I like/love the chat button and follow button being prominent.

I was experimenting with the profile page yesterday so that's why they were gone, I added them back although they are smaller than before now. I'm still not 100% convinced about their location though.

Where were you thinking for alternate locations? I'll probably just enlarge the buttons if they're smaller by default -- I want to push push push people to chat

Chatting is the strength of Node.js, no? Actually, I have no idea.

I'm not sure where to put them to be honest, I just don't like where they are right now

Node.js doesn't have out of the box chat support, we used socket.io for that.
