These are today's Win updates:
- continued stability improvements to Win's image hosting
- can now resize textareas (when submitting comments and messages)
- can now see the total number of comments in a thread from inbox and profile
- added social media icons to desktop site's header
- fixed dark mode sidebar background on mobile
- made visited links a different color in dark mode, and a slight adjustment on light mode
- "http" links are no longer eligible to be embedded
- clicking post title on post page (as opposed to within a listing) now respects your "open links in new tab" setting
- fixed pagination in inbox (previously pressing "next page" would revert you to sorting all messages, rather than your selection such as just comment replies, or just private messages)
- fixed some issues caused by yesterday's font change (such as private message title no longer appearing bold)
As always, leave feedback, suggestions, and bug reports in the comments - and share TheDonald.win everywhere.
I have seen this request a couple times but never get enough upvotes to merit a response, so I'll give it a shot:
Please implement a soft "hide" for posts that you have upvoted or commented.
Yes there is a hide function already, the problem is that it doesn't actually change the post's order on the page. If I hide every post I've read on the front page, instead of getting 25 new posts I just get a blank page. I would like some way to tell the website, "I've seen this, read it, contributed, please show me new stuff" so I don't have to constantly go four or five pages deep to get "New" content (I'm not really patient enough to sort wheat from chaff in the actual New queue).
Basically every hour that I revisit TDw I would like to see things I haven't seen on my front page. I also don't want the front page to cycle too quickly and people miss important things. The best compromise, I feel, is to give people the option to hide things without it actually still taking up a slot on the page.
Bonus: it encourages people to upvote and comment.
