It asks me to complete a Captcha Robot test and then works fine after that. So I'm guessing the Captcha is confusing Awful app but, I don't know how to stop it from happening. It's a new thing.

Looks like Lowtax sticked a post about moving the forums eventually from vB to Xenforo. I would imagine when (if) this eventually happens, it would gently caress up the app real bad :(

Yeah that's it. I'm connecting from Moscow so, my best guess is Lowtax decided to flag Russia in the settings. I haven't seen Cloudflare connecting from a VPN so I'll try configuring one on my phone and see if that helps.

Maybe it's because the URL is malformed (don't have a PC to check right now) but I don't think Awful can handle the filter by username.

Well son, a funny thing about regret is that it's better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done
Found a minor bug I don't think I've seen mentioned - If I open Awful via a link to a thread from a browser (Chrome), that thread opens instead of my bookmarks page when I try to access my bookmarks from the menu. The bookmarks link from the main forums screen still works, though. Closing and reopening the app fixes it.

Running version 3.2.5.0c on Android 5.1 Droid Turbo.

The app is great though, it's my primary SA browser. Thanks!

Same. Though, I do that so infrequently, I just decided to live with it. Not opposed to it being fixed though, if y'all have the time.

One (probably quick fix) thing I don't think I've seen mentioned: embedded tweets remain bright white on OLED, but are black on POS themes.

Thanks for the app.

The image menu downloads the attachment.php instead of the actual image file, for pictures attached directly to a post instead of linked via [img] eg. Is there a way to change that?

Oh wow thanks, it's been so long since I've been to GBS that I had to open my laptop to figure out how to get there, since I basically only live in my bookmarks screen in this app.

So they're doing a whole new quasi open source forums software? That's pretty ambitious.

I read it more as bbcode is dead and dreadful and a lot of effort to maintain, if we're going to modernise we may as well go open source at the same time so that when Lowtax finally gets sick of us and wants to call it quits on SA he can do so without feeling like he's killing the community.

I know you're joking but Awful for Windows (Awful.appx?) works on the Hololens. Drastic Actions is amazing.


As for the announcements, my interpretation is that they'll be employing the new xenForo forums software and will write (and open-source) extensions that will mimic current forum features like timed probation and, well, feature purchases.

In meteorology, vorticity often refers to a measurement of the spin of horizontally flowing air about a vertical axis.
I just caught up on the thread, and now I'm posting from the Amazon® Approved™ Awful app! Before I just downloaded and installed the Android apk on my Kindle when you posted a link to the updates, but this will be easier. Thanks!

I was hoping the display image function would smooth out large gifs, but it seems it has the opposite effect and they just don't play at all.

Since gif now seems to able to refer to at least three distinct formats (:argh:), here's the latest post I'm having trouble with. Device is 2013 N7 running Android 6.0.1

Having a bug the last week or so and I'm not sure where to start troubleshooting on my end.

Lately the app has just been failing to load while I'm on 3g etc, even though I can still Google poo poo and get other programs working. Works fine on wifi
