Any chance you could make posts from ignored users smaller? I know currently it's displaying a link to show the ignored post but maybe you could word it so it only takes up a line?




This probably has to do with your font settings too. Mine probably takes 3 lines because I’m an old man and have my font size jacked up. :corsair:

Jerk detected! User ignored.

Or just

User ignored.

Would work even with a huge font. It's clearly a pushable link so the rest isn't needed.

The thing is I don't think Awful.app does anything special for ignored posts. So it would have to start doing something special since right now it just renders the post as is.

Do we have any data on how many people are still stuck on those ancient devices?

We're at something like 95% iOS 11, which only supports non-ancient devices. There's still a couple hundred devices on iOS 9.

We switched to the version recommended by the twitter api of injecting the latest twitter.js and ours didn't break. Not sure if that's something the apple app store release people allow.

Didn't even occur to me, but of course that's a thing. I'll check it out!

I’m on Public Beta 1 of iOS 12 and this may be related to what you were talking about in the beginning of your last post Pokey.

My app settings are to open twitter links in the twitter app and use the Awful app as my browser for other links. Everything opens in safari.

I'll make sure that's on the list. I've mostly written those off as the not-entirely-intuitive iOS system behaviour, but it seems like there's enough smoke here to go searching for fire.

tanky posted:

Bumping the min requirement to 12 would be convenient, but maybe too aggressive. iOS 11 adoption has been real slow, iPhone 5 is still fairly common, and we'd lose the long tail of people's old iPads. Unless iOS 12 goes gangbusters from the start or our userbase is way ahead of the adoption curve, it'd probably make sense to do the bare minimum work to keep those updating (I like the idea of just fixing preview/theme).

What kind of analytics do we have? I didn't see hw.machine being logged, but percentage on iOS 10.3.3 from connect or crashlytics might be a useful proxy for device breakdown.

iOS 12 doesn't drop any devices though, so if we were gonna do 11 we might as well just go right to 12.

I managed to screw up the build script just enough to ship the most recent App Store release with no Crashlytics. The numbers above come from App Store Connect. (24% opt-in rate, bunch of paranoid goons!)

I'd accept a change that shrinks the font size. Not so sure about rewording it; I try to stay faithful to the Forums proper in showing content. Also this:

I've posted about this before but I have an issue where forums will auto-refresh but the thread list is messed up and there will be dead threads listed. Instead of the standard number of threads on the first page there are like two pages worth and at the end the "pull up to go to next page" doesn't work. Manually pulling down at the top of the thread list to refresh fixes it. Ive only noticed it in GBS and PYF (I know, lol don't read those forums problem solved lol).

Not a huge deal and maybe just me but wanted to report

Just wanted to mention that the "[/..]" keyboard button while posting still doesn't understand nested bbcode tags, and instead repeatedly attempts to re-close an already closed tag. So if you write bold-italics and try to close both tags with the "[/..]" button, and then hit it a few more times for fun, you'll get:
code:
[b][i]for closers[/i][//i][///i][////i][/////i]
I know I've mentioned this before (and iirc it cropped up after switching to Swift for the regexes, possibly?) but I think that was all in the old thread.

Crash report

Iphone 7, ios 11.newest

I had an image copied to the clipboard (an actual image from the camera roll, not a url). I started composing an empty reply and tapped the textview to bring up the copy/paste bubble. I selected the img option and accidentally picked the option that inserts the [img] bbcode tags. I then selected all so the tags' text was highlighted, selected the img option from the bubble and selected paste to paste my image and the app crashed.

1. Copy image data to clipboard from Photos app
2. Compose empty reply
3. Insert img tags
4. Select all
5. Paste image
6. Crash

Fwiw the image data didn't seem messed up, i opened the app again and successfully pasted and posted without re-copying the image from Photos. Here is the image i hope you like it

Workflow (and likely siri shortcuts in ios 12) works

Heres one i made for when images dont load when you're on the train or whatever, if you long-touch a blank inage to get to the fullscreen loading view this will kick it out to safari so you can go back to reading and then check the image in safari when you have service

A very bad regex substitution would take (.*)\? and replace it with $1

There's also "forwarded". I stole them from the site proper, assuming that people would know what they meant in that case (if they know at all), but I'm open to new icons.

Hey, I've made these now. They're named unread-msg, read-msg, rep-msg and fwd-msg.

(In the 2x & 3x folders)

I've also made changes to the others in the set (still same naming and dimensions) so if you could pop those into the next beta that'd be great!

e: Some other things - Share URL could maybe just be Share. I've changed that icon to the more typical share icon.

The brightness sun icons in settings currently appear black on the dark theme.

I still have the issue where every now and then the screen will not be responsive unless I open threads with 3D Touch.

Not a huge inconvenience since it’s easy to just close the app and reopen, which has fixed it 100% of the time, just something I figured the dev would like to know.

iOS 11.4 and the most recent release of awful app.
