Tunga posted:For what it's worth I think Awful (Android) looks kind of silly on the default theme. Sort of childish somehow. The blue and white gives it a kind of edutainment look. And those iOS screenshots have the same effect on me. That's how I feel about iOS UI in general. The blues and whites feel childish and 2005 to me. FWIW, I'm with LastInLine. I don't understand why you'd devote so much screen space to something as relatively unimportant as thread tags. That being said, the only reason I said anything was so he didn't feel lonely, otherwise it's not important enough to me to have even brought it up.

Basically, any time you have a bug you should send Sereri your device or an identical one.

You can get the HTC Zoe app now . I don't know what it works on, but the play store says it's incompatible with my Moto X.

Mustache Ride posted:That platform that had the huge security flaw when it was installed in the Starbucks app last year? No, that's not a flaw with crashlytics, it's a flaw with the Starbucks app. Starbucks chose to log that data in a plain text format. That doesn't have anything to do with Crashlytics other than the fact that that happened to be the logging platform Starbucks used.

pinegala posted:The new update is pretty spiffy but it suffers from the same bad trends that Google seems to have started and won't stop. Why is there so much white space everywhere? This is a nerd affliction where they see space without text in it and go "but I could have words there!". This totally disregards what a century of UI design has taught us...white space improves readability. Of course, you could make the argument that white space is misused, but that's a different complaint that no one has yet made. New update looks great all around.

RandomPauI posted:I'm using the latest version from Google play. There's a thread where only two posts show on the latest, penultimate, and third most recent pages. Also, several threads still won't show the new content that was posted to the threads. Maybe you should share which thread it is? Also, I'm not sure if this is an Awful-specific issue. There's an SA bug where sometimes you can't see any recent posts in a thread unless you make a post in it yourself.

Sometimes when I enter a YOSPOS thread from my bookmarks the YOSPOS theme applies, and sometimes it doesn't. If I had to guess I'd say it's 50/50 applies/doesn't-apply. edit: when I made this post it just gave me a blank view with the page indicator showing 52/51. Clicking refresh fixed it.

I can't even remember if I'm on the beta or not. Probably be nice to have some indication in-app of that. Today, I entered a YOSPOS thread from my bookmarks, and it didn't get the YOSPOS theme. Then the next several threads from my bookmarks, which was not in YOSPOS, did get the YOSPOS theme. After 2 or 3 threads, it fixed itself.

Knuc U Kinte posted:Why wouldn't you care about one of the most basic features of using a forum along side making posts and looking at the forum. Because none of the many people who have volunteered their time on developing this app care about it and in fact people caring about it are pretty rare...it hardly ever gets brought up. In the megathread-centric environment of SA, making threads seems to be pretty rare.

The problem is that for some reason like 90 percent of the people who bring it up act like they're entitled and that the very idea of an app without posting is ludicrous.

Dieting Hippo posted:you gotta admit its a little silly that an app you can post with can't make the main post. i mean its free with all work volunteered so i cant really demand anything, but it is odd. No, I don't, because I don't think it's odd. Posting in a thread is both conceptually and technically different from creating a thread. I mean, I get there's some percentage of people who do think it's odd, but the reason they get such pushback is because some portion of them act like it's obvious that it should be in and that everyone should think it's odd. Would it be better if those who act entitled didn't make it harder for the more reasonable people? Sure. Is it surprising? No.

Sereri posted:Yeah. I wish you could stay at a single version like a library. It seems pretty terrible that you can't. I mean, really, if updates can change the behavior and break things, it should definitely be able to be pinned at a certain version. But then again, I guess you could end up with apps pinning at a version of the webview that has security issues...

There used to be a Firefox extension I used that added all sorts of bbcode stuff to the right click menu or something... I'm a little fuzzy on the details as it's been many years since I last used it. I do remember I was really disappointed when it disappeared.
