Just noticed this today but anytime I have the app open it’s continuously using data in the background, whether on WiFi or cellular. It’s definitely the app and not anything else, it stops when I go out to home screen or another app.

Could you try long-pressing the home button into Siri and backing out, to see if that makes the spinner stop?

Going into Siri and backing out didn’t work, but manually closing the app and restarting seems to have fixed it for now, even though it didn’t before. I’ll check in if it starts up again.

New post view: when advancing to the next page of a thread, I get a black view while things are loaded, then a flash of the old content, then it’s replaced by the new content.

This got a little bit better on the latest beta but it's still bad. I'm pondering how to handle it; apparently waiting for document.readyState === 'interactive' doesn't cut it.

Made this better on master branch. Turns out .xcconfig files have a conditional include!

I like the "Copy Title" button on thread listings (including the icon!), but could you add some similar functionality when you're already viewing a single thread? Like adding the same "itt..." button within the share thread menu form the bottom-right ⬆️-button -- or take a page from embedded-Safari where a long-press on the disabled URL field opens a "copy" button box. Or both! Both would also be nice 👍

Good point! I'll add it to the list.

Another request I have is to restore the simple "Open" button when you long-press on a link! [a good example]

Yeah I think I'm finally sold on this.

Nude posted:

Since we are talking about requests, I would like to mention having the option for when you start scrolling in a long thread the ui fades away. Similar to how scrolling works in the safari app.

Always been a good idea! It's surprisingly (or maybe not surprisingly) difficult to do this well, but I do still want to do it.

It's possible Awful is doing networking things, but it's also possible I hosed up hiding the indicator :) I'll make a note! If you happen to notice it goes back to always-spinning mode after doing something in particular in the app, definitely let me know.

If it doesn’t work from other apps you need to reset the universal link. You might be able to do it via long press, or scrolling down in safari and hitting the open button, but I think I had to uninstall twitter to fix it when I had the issue.

I reinstalled twitter, no dice - whenever I long press a twitter link and tap “open in twitter”, it goes to safari instead. Any ideas?

This might just be those particular gifs, which may not even be gifs (or at least Imgur is refusing to send an actual animated gif)? They're busted in the App Store version too. I'll make a note but probably won't be fixed in the beta.

When it goes to Safari, if you scroll down a bit do you get the app banner at the top that says "Open in Twitter"? If you tap that, it might switch back to opening in Twitter.

I'm pretty sure Lowtax or somebody added the couple of lines of CSS that make timg unnecessary several years ago anyway. (I almost never use the forums outside of the app these days though, so I wouldn't know if it had been reverted at some point.)

The only reason I leave it in, and would keep it as the default after adding a setting, is because it’s still in the rules, and I don’t want someone to get punished because Awful wasn’t following the rules.

It makes sense to overrule the default via a setting though. And it might make sense to allow changing it case-by-case (not sure of the UI for it, or whether it’d be worth the effort).

Yep. Part of a big (though ideally invisible) change to the posts view, so I'm giving some time to ironing out the bugs. At this rate I’ll probably send it off to App Review this weekend?

edit: also there’s plenty of room on the beta if anyone wants in, just PM me an email address (doesn’t need to be associated with an Apple ID).

Not a huge deal but is it possible to have animated images continue to animate while scrolling? I have a habit of reading while just scrolling really slowly constantly and that makes animated images not work. They work fine the moment I stop scrolling, of course.

I'm using the app store version if that helps.
