Why did the title field go above the URL field?

    I’m talking about the post creation UI. Previously, the URL field was above the title field, but ever since the last update, they got reversed

      Oh I was completely off then. My first guess was that you were talking about Lemmygrad but I couldn’t find where it would be relevant in the context of Lemmygrad.

      I think I agree with you, because if there is a URL, it’ll be the first thing you are determined to post, before finalising the title and body. But as a counter argument, often there is no URL, and it’s more natural for fields other than the top field to be left blank. It also biases you towards feeling all posts need to link somewhere.
