tbh a lot of my apps have been acting up since OS11 in similar ways - Kindle will freeze up and stop responding to swipes. Chrome, especially when FB is loaded on it, just randomly ignores taps on various buttons.

three weeks pass...

A way to unsubscribe from threads would be great!

I would like to request that the "reply" button append the signature line from the poster being quoted to the quote

Would contribute to a crowdfunding bounty to get stet to spend time on this particular feature, even

direct to consumer online mattress brand (silby), Saturday, 24 February 2018 01:16 (six years ago) link

It used to do that! But somebody moaned and I took it out

stet, Saturday, 24 February 2018 10:04 (six years ago) link

Boooooo them

direct to consumer online mattress brand (silby), Saturday, 24 February 2018 14:10 (six years ago) link

Yeah, always wondered where that went.

Jeff, Saturday, 24 February 2018 14:20 (six years ago) link

Apologies if wrong place to post, but what do i need to do to access 77 on iphone (have been added by mod and all good on laptop)?
have tried logging out and back in but no luck, am i looking for the board in the wrong place?

lefal junglist platton (wtev), Sunday, 25 February 2018 20:52 (six years ago) link

hmmm, it should definitely be accessible on iphone if it works on your computer. i know you logged out and back in - maybe it would help to close the app/restart it?

Have you logged in and out on Zing too? If all else fails deleting and reinstalling should sort it

stet, Sunday, 25 February 2018 23:59 (six years ago) link

Tried those suggestions but no joy.

lefal junglist platton (wtev), Monday, 26 February 2018 17:01 (six years ago) link

two months pass...

How about an option to turn off board descriptions? So much wasted space with ha ha funny descriptions. I kind of like the bookmark previews tho.

Jeff, Wednesday, 9 May 2018 23:52 (five years ago) link

Yeah, I’ve coded up settings for this. Coming next release

stet, Wednesday, 9 May 2018 23:54 (five years ago) link

this looks really g— nah, kidding.

This is lovely. Serif dark mode is a treat. Cheers.

I'm Finn thanks, don't mention it (fionnland), Thursday, 10 May 2018 12:03 (five years ago) link

Zing needs a feature analogous to the hollow dots to identify threads with new posts.

American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Thursday, 10 May 2018 12:17 (five years ago) link

Otherwise I’m impressed. I haven’t used it in a long time and it seems much improved

American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Thursday, 10 May 2018 12:18 (five years ago) link

yeah it's rock solid now when opening a thread, no funny little jumping around, just goes straight to last read post. a+

illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 10 May 2018 13:31 (five years ago) link

Looks great. Still has the bug where if you rotate your phone to landscape mode it jumps back a bunch of posts when you go back to portrait.

DJI, Thursday, 10 May 2018 14:45 (five years ago) link

Nice update. Thanks! A few comments:

In dark mode, the color of URL text is dark blue and literally impossible to read on the grey background.

I use dynamic font on an iPhone 6s and it would be cool if that applied to posts when selected - which I often do to see attachments and/ or the text formatting. Or some option to increased font for posts.

beard papa, Thursday, 10 May 2018 14:46 (five years ago) link

still doesn't sync bookmarks with my account :(((((((

gbx, Thursday, 10 May 2018 14:47 (five years ago) link

I wish I could figure that out. There’s no actual sync involved — everything just gets the list of bookmarks from the server. Somehow it is keeping two separate copies for you. There must be something in your browser thats funky.

stet, Thursday, 10 May 2018 19:52 (five years ago) link

Any chance for notifications for updated bookmarked threads?

licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Thursday, 10 May 2018 20:36 (five years ago) link

noooo don't

valorous wokelord (silby), Thursday, 10 May 2018 21:02 (five years ago) link

Bookmark preview isn’t so great when you’re intentionally not reading a thread for a TV show because you haven’t seen the ep yet.

Jeff, Thursday, 10 May 2018 21:08 (five years ago) link

yeah same with sports. sorry, hate to complain! not into it, just more to scroll through too

they call me melo gelo (Spottie), Thursday, 10 May 2018 21:14 (five years ago) link

Do people want notifications? I keep thinking about it but I don’t want to make yet another engagement-farming app.

Check out these three great challops you missed.

Xp agreed on the preview spoilers, I had to remove the Americans thread because of them. Setting to come.

stet, Thursday, 10 May 2018 21:58 (five years ago) link

i would open zing hourly for free coins

karl wallogina (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 10 May 2018 22:00 (five years ago) link

from the ghost of iPhones past: this version, like the previous one, crashes on launch on my hahaha 4s running iOS 9.3.5

Brad C., Thursday, 10 May 2018 23:21 (five years ago) link

I think I have a 4s around here somewhere, I’ll take a look!

stet, Thursday, 10 May 2018 23:30 (five years ago) link

Thanks, Stet! I've found that ilxor.com is surprisingly legible/navigable in Safari on my tiny 4s screen

Brad C., Thursday, 10 May 2018 23:40 (five years ago) link

Haha, the Americans bookmark is the one that keeps me from having a clean slate. It's been sitting there for months now as I am yet to catch up. Removing it now and feel better already ;)

lbi's life of limitless european glamour (Le Bateau Ivre), Friday, 11 May 2018 10:02 (five years ago) link

no to previews
no to notifications

everything else rly sediment? i mean awesome :)

illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Friday, 11 May 2018 13:11 (five years ago) link

I would like notifications, those could always be not allowed, or easily disabled.

Jeff, Friday, 11 May 2018 14:11 (five years ago) link

true

illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Friday, 11 May 2018 14:44 (five years ago) link

Yeah I doubt I would put notifications on rolling Netflix threads or such but could be nice to activate for some low intensity niche threads.

licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Friday, 11 May 2018 17:30 (five years ago) link

i feel like bookmarks already perform a lot of the functions that notifications would

illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Friday, 11 May 2018 18:02 (five years ago) link

seconded

dan selzer, Friday, 11 May 2018 20:32 (five years ago) link

'estela posted!' notification plz

let’s get real (alomar lines), Saturday, 12 May 2018 05:29 (five years ago) link

Latest update broke the filter threads feature within the forum for me (iPhone 6, latest iOS 11 update).

Otherwise, really like the previews.

Naive Teen Idol, Saturday, 12 May 2018 17:02 (five years ago) link

i hate to complain because i love zing and appreciate that it's there, so much, but i don't think i like the previews, or at least they're not useful for me. i guess i just don't understand the point of them - the previews show up on bookmarked threads with no replies. but in order to clear the bookmark, i'm going to have to open up the thread and read it anyway. so what is the preview for? to decide whether or not to check out the thread? but i'm one of those Inbox Zero people, so it's not like i'm just going to let unread bookmarks sit there for days. i have so many bookmarks that i'd quickly accumulate a couple dozen unread bookmarks if i didn't clear them out.

er, this may be more of an issue with how i use bookmarks than the new preview feature, but i'm wondering if anyone else is in the same boat as me.

obviously DLC (Karl Malone), Saturday, 12 May 2018 17:17 (five years ago) link

sorry, i meant

the previews show up on bookmarked threads with NEW replies.
