SFOS Forum Viewer - feedback thread

Overall my experience is good.
Sometimes it bothers me that the number of Unread or New post is to big. That happens when the number is there but when I tap that there are no topics there.

Since few weeks all community posts are marked as spam
What did i fuck up?

My guess, you’ve rubbed someone or a bunch of someone’s, the wrong way.

You probably added rainemak to the filter list, clearing it should fix it

What is the filter list?
What does it do?

App’s alternative to discourse filtering/muting options that doesn’t require an account

Did clear my filters and seems to be gone

Is it possible to add a feature to the “Show replied-to post” functionality?

It would be useful to be able to choose to scroll to the post, so you can see it in the full context of the thread.

Maybe in the separate view where the post is shown there could be a menu that lets you scroll to the post in the thread.

I logged myself out by mistake by selecting the wrong item in the pulley menu.
And my password is horrible to type :cry:

I think a confirmation is not just useful, but needed to avoid what I did :grin:

I believe since a few versions the coloring for read/unread threads is reversed (white/grey). And I believe I have a fix for this somewhere but am unsure:
Have people become accustomed to that and would dislike a change?

Is there a way to pass the login information to the webview when opening a thread directly?

I’m logged into the app, but when I open the thread directly in the webview, I’m logged out and I have to log in to do whatever I couldn’t do directly in the app.

This breaks my immersion in Sailfish because I go and do that on a different phone with a different OS.

I don’t think that’s easily possible because authentification is very different (API token vs Browser session/cookie).

Webview is intended for quickly viewing images and such. For proper logged in interaction, use the ‘Open in External Browser’ function, that’s why it’s there.

Yeah, I don’t see any other way if it’s technically impossible.

Any feedback on the other suggestions I made?
Are any of them doable?

Not sure i get you.
For me bold white are threads with news, red the followed ones with news, greyish or darker white the rest

The webview used to keep the session untill recently too.
Since few months not. Can see this in songkick too. Asked in forum, no answer

Maybe it’s this, not sure: Fix session history restore from embedlite-components · Issue #1042 · sailfishos/sailfish-browser · GitHub
