It makes sense if you consider that every post needs a title but not a link.
But usually you would find the source material and then come up with a title, so for a better flow, the URL box should go on top
I'm not sure what you're talking about. So I have to make some assumption.
Are you asking why the buttons in your browser chrome are above the URL field in your web browser? The thinking for that is that everything at the top of the application affects the things underneath. Some buttons in the browser chrome are used to interact with the web browser application itself and not with the website, so it doesn't matter what the current URL is. Similarly, tabs control the URL, so they're also above the URL text field. Is this what you were asking?My Firefox has a non-standard layout so I'm not 100% confident on what the chrome normally looks like or what it looks like in other web browsers. But I'm confused by "title field", because the title field chrome is controlled by your desktop environment, and I'd think it's very rare for this to be inserted anywhere but the very edge of a window. So I must've misunderstood what you mean with title 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.
