General tracker for HL things we can do to make widgets more usable:

  • Show them expanded by default when you add them to a room
  • Support more than 2 widgets at a time
  • Make the widgets resizeable (remembering the size requested)
  • Support maximising/minimising per-widget
  • Rationalise the two buttons (appstore button at the top right, versus 'show widgets' button next to the composer). I don't think I have ever used the 'show widgets button' in practice in my life.

As a data point: I often forget that the show widgets button exists, and am only reminded of it when someone asks "what does it do?".

sorry redesign, you missed out on a bunch of options :(

Just a drive-by comment: matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk#4493 sounds related to this ticket. It claims to implement #6785 which sounds a lot like the two remaining points here.
