Some fucked spacing that triggers my autism:
1. Breadcrubms desperately need a gap between them and the menu.
2. random.txt is in a very awkward place and creates a lot of empty space (especially if it's multiline), should probably be moved to be between menu and breadcrumbs (like it was before, I think)
3. When viewing a specific board: filters make top pagination float wierdly above the thread list.

Made my first post since the clusterfuck and there's definitely new unusual buggy behavior.

Not even getting into visual elements, this is purely a functional bug.

Browser: Brave 1.77.97 on Android phone

Task: Write reply draft, edit it, and click post reply on existing thread

Expected behavior: HTTP post goes through, the draft clears, and my post shows up on whatever page I'm currently on in the thread (but in reality posts on the last page of the thread)

Actual behavior: Clicking post reply silently submits and shows my post on the current page, but does not clear the reply draft box even though my post goes through. If I want to post again in the thread I have to manually clear the reply box from the previous draft by selecting all and hitting backspace.

Why it's a problem: The clearing of the reply draft box after reply submission is the visual signal to the end user that your post went through.

I also lost the "Quote | Reply" box when selecting text in OPs, and can't use the full post +Quote button (down in the Like +Quote Reply section) due to length.

In this thread I can select & quote text from replies, but no way to quote the OP. In other articles without replies, no way to quote at all.

Please make the right side bar "New Politisperging" the same size as it used to be. New themes are created too fast and the old ones that might be interested get buried before one can see them.

Yes you’re right, it’s only long posts (which is what it was invented for!)

Repeatable example long post:

Nick is trying to own his ex-boyfriend by shaming Aaron's idol. Or something. It's very creepy and stalkerish considering it's what Aaron covered briefly on Monday.
Click to expand...

Nowadays it probably wouldn't be to own Aaron by shaming his idol since there's not much love lost between the two lately, what with Cumia having publicly dunked on Aaron a few times over the past year including most recently superchatting Melton of all people, and Aaron seeming to push back with the clip you mention (starting at 6:48 in Stallyn19's clip from tonight's STES) by approving of Opie's funnier...

It works fine on short posts but doesn't work on the long posts you can't full quote

There’s something a bit weird going on with clicks/highlights in general too - I noticed if I want to give a different sticker than “thumbs up”, previously you’d press and hold the icon for a second to get the sticker panel. Now it seems more difficult, it always gives thumbs up or highlights the text instead
Click to expand...
Here’s an example of that. It’s like it fails to capture the “long press” - the sticker panel has appeared but then disappears as soon as I stop pressing. Definitely degraded compared to how it was before. (OK I know we hate stickers but I think this overlaps with other problems)

Y'know, I think more people would use a light theme if there was a sepia variation that wasn't so harsh on the eyes. It'd make things feel like a bit more "classic".

Also bring back the Gold theme you fucks I didn't know how much I'd miss it.

Glad I’m not the only phonefag experiencing this, it drives me nuts currently. Oddly enough the longpress is captured correctly after the initial reaction

Are you trying to switch via the new "Style Variation" button? That button only toggles the light/dark for whichever theme you're on. To switch the theme itself you need to go to user preferences and change "Style".
Click to expand...
Yes that's what I'm trying, I can go from light to dark in style variation but I can't pick any other colour like Stealth, Destiny blue, etc from style.

Might it be related to spoiler being used or too many quotes in a post?

I was about to report the same thing after I tried to quote this post and it did not work.

I'm torn if Nick is either too retarded to understand that what he did is hacking or if he knows and he's too retarded to understand that you shouldn't jokingly admit to crimes you've actually committed.

I think that he probably believes he is protected via some technicality and can't see the overall picture à la Frank's motion.

While we have you, I skimmed through Melton's last show from April 11. (I didn't have the stomach to listen to it closely.) I assume you hadn't viewed it bf releasing your edit a day later. It was FILLED with the most ridiculous copes...
