Why can't you have the app fetch the required xpath strings at runtime (or when updated) from a centralized source (github) so if the forum updates you don't need an entire new version of the app? Does the App Store not allow this?

It's a good idea and it's definitely on the list, as mentioned. I've even talked with devs for other platforms' Awful apps about collaborating on a common repository and test suite. We're all for it (or at least, nobody objected), it's just not terribly high on the list. Since it affects Awful.app the most, because of the lead time for pushing out an update, if anyone starts that project it'll be us.

The current issue with the announcement was entirely a stupid change on my part, and it would've worked fine just a few versions ago.

Hello,

I'm getting constant 1002 errors, and nows threads don't appear listed in forums

tried deleting and redownloading app, have no idea why there would be a network problem as data flows freely for other things..

Suggestions welcome

I made the mistake of deleting/dowloading the app again and yeah, nothing works now. Oh what desperate times these be.
Is there a dark mode in Chrome/Safari? It's the best feature ever invented.

Why would that be odd? The announcement is what breaks parsing of the (sub/)forums. Threads themselves are fine, and since there are no announcements on the bookmarks page, so are those.

You said you were going to get a new version to the app store soon, is there an ETA for that? Not trying to like, rush you or anything, I realize you're not getting paid for this, I'm just curious.

I've been getting the 1002 error as well. I was able to load forums occasionally, but I removed and reloaded the app to see if that would fix it and now I can't get past the forums main page.

Appreciate all the work you're putting into this.

He already did at the beginning of last week. It's not getting the update to the Apple that is the bottleneck, it's Apple crack team approving the update and releasing it to the store.

Well, since one announcement required one update, obviously two announcements would require two updates. Duh.
