Always assumed it was a deliberate choice by stet to let I stand in for Q to keep the interface less crowded.

I’m biased, I use block quotes all the time and today I noticed there’s room for it
― El Tomboto, Sunday, 15 October 2017 19:52 (six years ago) link
I would IAP this feature fwiw (for $2 even!! Cause I’m rich)
― El Tomboto, Sunday, 15 October 2017 19:54 (six years ago) link
the q might not fit on an se

the U is indeed hard right on my SE

^ tell yr mom
then the IAP approach works great; the rich people without headphone jacks can buy in, the rest can just use italics (signaling their desperate hardscrabble existence)
― El Tomboto, Monday, 16 October 2017 15:16 (six years ago) link
The reply button automatically adds block quotes
― "The" Blink-182 (wins), Monday, 16 October 2017 15:29 (six years ago) link
yes and I would much prefer that it do italics instead

inability to back out of threads is saddest bug ever. donating monies.
― Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Saturday, 21 October 2017 16:23 (six years ago) link
Yeah I've been wondering about that. Doesn't seem like a consistent bug.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 21 October 2017 16:32 (six years ago) link
The “back” button should totally be an IAP Stet just missing out on opportunities all over the place
― El Tomboto, Saturday, 21 October 2017 16:39 (six years ago) link
If you want quotes formatted in italics that’s a job for your style sheet. Quotes are quotes.

You have misconstrued my User Story. Back to the Scrumgeons with you
― El Tomboto, Saturday, 21 October 2017 17:40 (six years ago) link
I can’t reproduce the back bug, argh
― stet, Saturday, 21 October 2017 20:48 (six years ago) link
neither can i fwiw (iphone 8+, ios 11.0.3)
― rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 21 October 2017 21:39 (six years ago) link
Is it the one where you have to click the little arrow on the left? Seems like the target area got smaller in the latest update...
― DJI, Saturday, 21 October 2017 22:52 (six years ago) link
Yeah I assume folks are just talking about the left caret being harder to hit
― El Tomboto, Saturday, 21 October 2017 23:07 (six years ago) link
it's worse than that. like Ned said, sometimes it works as expected and sometimes there's no choice but to close the app.
― Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Sunday, 22 October 2017 02:07 (six years ago) link
I’ll show you it on my phone, Stet.
― Madchen, Monday, 23 October 2017 05:03 (six years ago) link
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.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 23 October 2017 08:10 (six years ago) link
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
― direct to consumer online mattress brand (silby), Saturday, 24 February 2018 01:15 (six years ago) link
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?
― i remember the corned beef of my childhood (Karl Malone), Sunday, 25 February 2018 21:18 (six years ago) link
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
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.

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+

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.
