I wonder if the background of the "Platinum member" section should be light grey ( |
|
The platinum member being a clickable tile should also use the new clickable tile UX? (if only this was a component) |

The problem is the graphics at the bottom only work this way so the idea was to have the last 2 sections before that the same way since they are technically meant to be like one block. Its kinda cheating of course. The alternative is to add another section I guess :p open for ideas though. |

Quoted from a previous comment:
Here's what I was thinking, at least for my first suggestion.

have you considered also excluding TWIMs given they have their own section and don't give a huge benefit here?

I would keep the text as is, but make the whole tile clickable, like the single TWIM card above. Or drop the hover animation on the card, which seems inconsistent.

Converting back to draft after talking internally due to ongoing discussions first :) This will be put on the waitinglist to at least end of april or later. |
