A link embedded in the UI in some way would work. Apps can install shortcut steps of their own but idk if they can automatically install shortcuts composed of steps.

Since this is yes is it possible to have it in the same place as before with the long press?

I am not an app programmer but in theory it must be possible -- Drafts on iOS can be programmed to https://docs.getdrafts.com/docs/actions/steps/advanced#run-shortcut

That part can work but I’m not sure how to create the shortcut or know what it’s called on a given device. I just LARP as an iOS developer though, so an actually informed person may have a solution.

It is approximately impossible to Google for a way that an app can create a Shortcut, but it might be out there.

While I do thank you folks for the shortcut, it still smacks of having to create a boot floppy for every game you own because MS-DOS can't allocate EMS and XMS memory on its own, let alone see if there's a sound card.

I didn't like having to do it back then, and I'm just too stubborn to develop Stockholm Syndrome about stuff like that.

Yeah it’s not nearly that bad and like I said before it auto converts everything to a jpg which helps immensely.

I will say that implementing the shortcut into the app would be very helpful but I can see it being a nightmare.

YouTube embeds no longer open, it just highlights the name of the video when you try to open it.

Edit: Should clarify this is in the TestFlight beta, the regular app still works fine.

(Dunno how long Discord keeps files around but that's a problem for future goons!)

Note that my drag started on Edit, dragged down to Quote, and then released there; I didn't actually drag back up to Edit! It looks like I did because I guess the Edit button highlights again because the Edit action is being fired, right as post sheet starts appearing and just before the crash itself.

(Also this does indeed still occur when loading a thread from a forums view, not just your bookmarks page.)

Looks like my crash there has been fixed in the just-released TestFlight beta!!! :peanut:

(I also see that the hamburger menu has a title of the overall thread title; could the ellipsis menu on each individual post also have a title of the poster's name??)

Test flight bug report: long-press on images doesn’t pop up the image view any more.

Seconded, although if you long-press on an image, then release and immediately start long-pressing again, then it will pop up the image view. (It also works if you long-press an image to start dragging it around, and then drop-but-immediately-restart-longpressing on a DIFFERENT image, interestingly enough.) Still seems like a significant bug even with this One Weird Trick of a workaround!! :ohdear:

e: basically the expected functionality is still there, but can only activate during the animation while another image is sliding back to its original location, so you have about a... quarter second or so? Some brief window when the image viewer can be actually be activated.

e2 but as a new post instead:

Actually this issue may affect all "longpress to activate some different UI feature" functionality in the latest TestFlight beta!! That being the issue Subjunctive identified: if you longpress on an image, you get the scenario I described above, with the awkward workaround of "stop longpress, immediately restart longpress within a fraction of a second" to get the old image viewer.

Turns out the same holds for hyperlinks too though!!! Longpressing a hyperlink should pop up the "Open in Awful, [in other browsers...], Copy URL, Share URL" menu, but currently just either starts a drag-n-drop action or begins selecting the words of the link. The same workaround though seems to work to activate that Open/Share/Copy menu though!

Plz 2 fix thx pl0x

I had the same experience, to the point where holding the image and dragging around made it ‘go small’ (and in one case duplicated the image and put a ‘2’ next to it). I then scrolled down the page and saw this ha.



The second one appeared later too, on a different page I believe!

Long press behavior on images and links are broken, possibly on more than that but I haven't tried an embedded YouTube video yet.

Edit: okay YouTube embeds are not affected :)
