Feedback Technical Grievances

At the risk of pissing Null off - which I really don't want to do, sounds like he's already had a fucking day - I wanted to post while I am finally sitting at a computer. I have not been able to reply to any messages while using mobile for the past 3 days. I saw someone in best chat saying they were having the same issue. Neither of us have really fucked up and been banned (as far as we know) and can't figure out why the only issue is limited to replying.

@Null, I commented in the Telegram chat but I figured you post then get the fuck out of there as quickly as you can because that chat is retarded most of the time. Whatever you did today was pure fucking magic. The site has not run this fast and flawless for me in a bit. Even the KiwiFlare page zooms by super fast. As always, amazing fucking work at always the worst possible fucking time. You're a legend!
 
I'm probably not the first one to ask about this but would it be possible to implement relative links within the forum? Either on the current version or on SneedForo.
For example, linking "/threads/technical-grievances.16928/page-324" would work for a user regardless of whether they're using the .net/.onion/.whatever after ICANN fucks everything up.

This isn't much of a problem nowadays but I recall a lot of people complained how they had to manually change each link to whatever domain we were on after Cloudflare cucked. Figured it would make a decent QoL improvement.
 
I had to load Kiwi Farms in Tor (not onion) to make this work, but for me accessing the Farms on the clearnet meant that I couldn't post anything, there literally wasn't a space for it. The other day this only showed up on a few threads but it seemed to be affecting most if not all of the threads I could see.

?? try and write the developers, idk what the fuck im supposed to do about that, we have an https redirect up
I just said it as a piece of info for people who might experience something like that to know that the issue might me on their browser's side, not on the server's.
 
For the past couple of days the site has been failing to keep me logged in and sometimes gives me an error when trying to reset my password
 
I am not developing new extensions for XenForo.

XenForo banned us years ago. I am not adding to their ecosystem. I am not spending a single minute developing their product.
Would you consider it as a feature request for the forum software you're developing? Assuming, of course, that you're planning to replace XenForo with the one you're creating from the ground up at some point.

You can stop the site from sucking up all your CPU by blocking ||kiwifarms.net/test-chat$subdocument with uBlock Origin. Suddenly everything is smooth as silk.
Unfortunately mobile browsers are iffy on extensions and whitelists, so my phone is still getting the grand mal seizures from this site 😔

Got so annoyed with this on TOR I hacked together a basic userscript.
JavaScript:
// ==UserScript==
// @name     Replace Kiwi Farms links to TOR
// @version  1
// @grant    none
// ==/UserScript==

window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", ()=>{
  var kf_links = document.querySelectorAll(".link");
  for (let l = 0; l < kf_links.length; l++) {
      if (kf_links[l].href.startsWith("https://kiwifarms.net/")) {
           kf_links[l].href = kf_links[l].href.replace("https://kiwifarms.net/", "http://kiwifarmsaaf4t2h7gc3dfc5ojhmqruw2nit3uejrpiagrxeuxiyxcyd.onion/")
      }
  }
})
 
For whatever it’s worth to anyone, I get the kiwi flare challenge constantly on iOS safari and the “oops”’ message trying to react, respond, etc. but everything works fine on iOS Firefox.

Check that your safari/iOS isn't in "block all cookies" mode or "oh my god I'm a journalist and gonna die" mode. Safari really likes to eat cookies.

Yeah, block all cookies is turned off and I wasn’t in private browsing. I cleared all KF cookies and tokens since null said he logged everyone out and I was never prompted for a login. Even after that and a new login, safari was the same experience.

It doesn’t matter to me, just posted that in case anyone else has the same experience.
