Feedback Technical Grievances

people have been complaining about this for years. it's an intermittent issue and I don't watch enough threads to see it.

edit: no this feature definitely still works.
I only noticed it because before it seemed to work perfectly and now it's hit or miss for me. Not a huge problem either way, I just got ninja'd on a reply a few minutes ago because I didn't know someone else had already answered.

Monica is just telling you what you want to hear because she doesn't want to be beaten with a remote.
And Let's not forget that Vic also played the most wholesome Marvel hero in a fan film.

Both of these posts have one of the "You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action." attachments that I was complaining about yesterday:
When I paste image data, it says that it uploaded and attached, and it shows up in the post, but once I post, the attachment isn't available anymore.
 
When will the old subforum icons be restored? Cuz I thought the change from UI.X to this was for fixing that, but it's not so I'm now mildly annoyed.
 
I just want to upload a 10sec gif and I am having issues, unsure if its me or the site :( Tried multiple times and with 3 different gif makers, just a wee bit frustrated.

IDK if I'm just being retarded and missing something, but inserting images in chat almost always doesn't work. Click on the little picture icon, get the box to paste a URL but I never get the button to insert.

Browsing with whatever the latest version of Vivaldi is on a little 1800x1200 Surface Go. Also doesn't seem to work on mobile.
 
I seem to be sporadically not getting alerts. I've noticed a few times now that I was quoted but I never got an alert for it.
 
The default font renders ń (a polack letter) incorrectly. It should just be the same as n but with the diactric, not this bullshit

It looks like an n with the accent to me, just like you described it should look like, here's a screenshot:

What does it look like for you? Screenshot?

Their shapes don't match up the same at all. They're completely different fonts. The accented one has thicker strokes, and look at the serif on the top edge of the n.

Here's the font stack:
Quattrocento,"Palatino Linotype","Book Antiqua",Palatino,serif

Right click on it, inspect it, and go to the "Computed" tab of the styles. Scroll all the way down to "Rendered Fonts," where it tells you which fonts are actually used and how many glyphs from each font... one glyph from Quattrocento (that's the n), and one from whichever next font is available on your system (that's the ń).

edit for relevant technical grievance... the image I pasted doesn't show up. It worked fine while I was drafting the message, but after posting the message it just shows "View attachment 1963589" and that doesn't work. Here it is pasted again, since it always seems to like the second take for some reason:

Ah, I see the problem now. I guess I'm pretty blind then because I only noticed the thing in the top-left being a different shape, and even then I needed to be zoomed in, lol.

It actually seems more noticeable to me at the default size.



The accented n looks significantly bolder than the unaccented one does.
