Research direction
Start by examining the RES codebase to understand the structure of the right sidebar. Look for any existing collapse/expand functionality in other components (e.g., the multireddit navbar). Check the linked Reddit post for user expectations. After understanding the DOM structure, propose a toggle button with CSS transitions. Finally, open a draft PR for feedback.
