[Dashboard] Usability fixes

See original GitHub issue
  • Order criteria in the Datasets view should match (most of) the options in the headers:
    • Favorites first
    • Updated (Newest / Oldest)
    • Name (asc / desc)
    • Rows (asc / desc)
    • Size (asc / desc)
    • Usage (asc / desc)

It should say “O MB” (instead of -22.3 MB):

  • Make the “checkbox” to select maps / datasets more evident.
  • Make “hoverable” items more “hoverable” (it’s not easy to discover you can move the mouse over what look like text):
    • List of tags: “X tags”
    • List of maps where a dataset is used: “X maps”.
  • ~Privacy Lock icon is confusing (can be understood as lock).~

Are we sure that we want to change Lock to Archive? 😂

Not really. I don’t think they are the same thing.

lock = restrict access to the full functionality or data of (a computer, mobile phone, file, etc.), especially by requiring a user to verify their identity with a passcode or other form of authentication: my computer is locked and I've forgotten my login info | I don't want people to read my emails—that's why I lock my phone.

archive = place or store (something) in an archive. • Computing transfer (data) to a less frequently used storage medium such as magnetic tape: the entire directory will be archived.

I have the feeling that we’ll have to revisit the locking workflow once we investigate a bit further how people are using CARTO, so I think we can forget about this for now. I will remove the task.
