  • I think it's a bit weird to have the name of the current instance on the far left of navbar and the link to actually view it on the far right. Can we just drop the "View instance" item entirely, and use the instance name as the link?
  • The cog is the link for configuring this instance. However, it's visually very separate from the name of the instance (on the far left), and is as close to the little person thing as it is to the "View instance" text, so there's no clue that it's a thing that "belongs" to an instance. Also, mouseover says "Settings" which is pretty meaningless.
    • Perhaps just rename to "Configure instance" and ditch the icon entirely
    • Perhaps move the cog to be adjacent to the current instance on the far LHS
  • The typography for "CURRENT INSTANCE" is only ever used for filters and for the "SEARCH" placeholder text, both things that are interactive. Why are we using it here?
  • I would not have guessed that I needed to go to "Account" in order to create a new instance
