Virion posted:Has there been any talk about adding keyboard shortcuts and navigation? I bought a keyboard to make my tiny laptop dreams come true and button scrolling is the one thing I miss from browsers. I think you're the first to mention it, though in retrospect it's a pretty obvious addition! I'll add it to the list. Lazyhound posted:Feature request: if you hold on a forum emoticon, show the bbcode for it instead of showing it full-screen. This is definitely on the list and it's a great idea so lemme put it on that list once more. Abjad Soup posted:Tweet embedding (tweembedding) is neat but I have some complaints about it already!!!

The apps are too dependent on nothing major changing with the html Yeah, joys of informal APIs if I can get a preview of the HTML changes I'd be more than happy to test them out. And of course if you decide to throw the switch for good we'll just figure it out!

That's odd, when you flipped the switch before and I came up with the fix it appeared to work fine with images. Now they quit showing up?

You prob already got this one, but if I scroll to the end of a thread with no new replies I get error code 999 instead of just refreshing to the bottom.

zen death robot posted:You can't really do anything to make the tweets look different that isn't supported by Twitter's own API unless you move to API v1.1 with requires app authentication and also rate limits the number of tweets you can query in a 15 minute window. It gets really complex really quick - which is why I haven't bothered to implement that on the forums themselves. Also I know the site would eat the 150 tweet per 15 minute thing up too fast and not work most of the time. Yeah, Twitter happily provides a dark theme in the JS embed API, but for other things we'd need to move to user auth to keep up with the traffic. Then people need to tie their Twitter account to the app/forums, and things get gross fast. I looked into this for imgur as well, in my unsuccessful quest to diagnose the posting-too-fast error.

Can links to YouTube be made to open in the YouTube app immediately rather than via the browser and that annoying prompt?

Pissflaps posted:Can links to YouTube be made to open in the YouTube app immediately rather than via the browser and that annoying prompt? Ya, it's in the options screen, set "open youtube in youtube" to on. I used to hate that poo poo because the middleman step made it so it dont say "back to awful" up the top. If you set that slider to on itll open em and you can go back to the app via iOS which makes browsing video heavy threads much more fun.

If I tap the link in the post below, it opens fine in awful browser. If I long-tap and open in safari, I get a 404. Something messing up the url escaping I guess? https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3548182&perpage=40&pagenumber=760#post458545691

A,axing work on the app everyone. Has something changed today to make bookmarks not work? Because bookmarks totally don't work for me now. The bookmark sidebar appears to load data but shows blank. Forums display works. Also I see Handoff support, which is awesome, but what does it handoff to? A browser or some app I need?

Bookmarks are back so thanks? Would be interesting to hear how handoff works.

It will open the current thread and page in Awful on other iOS devices with it installed, or Safari on iOS without Awful (I think) and OS X.

pokeyman posted:Jotted these down, thanks! Add another to the initial tweembedding bugs pile: long-pressing a tweet and then choosing the "Copy URL" button seems to do nothing but place "https://forums.somethingawful.com" into your clipboard, regardless of the tweet, which I don't think is the correct behavior. Same result when long-pressing on a link within the embedded tweet. Also +1 to re-adding the simple "Open" choice to the popup menu when you long-press on a link in a thread. Everyone who has previously made this suggestion is undoubtedly strong and physically attractive!

Apple removed them from the store over nsfw content being accessible on them. Yes, it makes no sense. The Bacon Reader devs (in their subreddit) said it wasn't Reddit's doing and that Reddit's reached out to them to help them get back in business. Just FYI.

The official Reddit app has NSFW disabled by default, so yeah they probably did pull some strings.

Yeah, Apple rejections got pretty out of hand a while back...even when we submitted the AMA app (when I worked on it) we had to take some rather extreme measures. For AMAs. I mean, really, c'mon, Apple. Definitely Apple's agenda, not Reddit's. (for the record, I no longer work there)

I mentioned it here because I thought it might impact Awful but it looks to be related to NSFW content and I guess we don't have that much of that compare to Reddit.

Also Northern European, Eastern European, Southern European, Asian (Japan and china at least, russia if you want to count russia as asia rather than Eastern Europe), South america, Australia - basically any country that isn't the United states, or predominantly Muslim.
