Hi devs, thread regulars. is it normal for the app to crash on three out of four thread loads? iOS12.1 XR

i had been using the app on my old mini for years fine but now it's super prone to crash and I wonder if it's my phone/os' fault or what

e: weird but it got better, disregard but with that Bob Hoskins quote from Brazil "machines don't fix themselves"

Random bug that bugs me (hah) because I browse from places with lovely cell reception: When you tap next page and the page fails to load, the page number updates to what would have loaded.

glad to hear it. Right now I'm basically confined to one thread (changing pages works fine) and if I want to switch threads I need to log out, log in, crash, load back at the log in screen, log in, then I can click into one thread before having to repeat the process to change threads. It's not ideal

Anyone who's had spoilers stop working, or Twitter embeds fail, or they can't tap a post author to get some user actions: hit me up with a link to the thread/post where you see it happen. If I'm right about what's going on, there's a good chance it'll suddenly Start Working the next time you head into the thread, but it might help me reproduce it if I'm on a page of a thread where I know it's happened. Thanks!

EL BROMANCE posted:

I’m not sure if this is old, because I don’t use it that often, but what happened to the thing where if you click a username in a post it would give you option to see just their posts, view profile etc? I’ve clicked/long pressed everything I can see and can’t find that stuff. I’m on a 6 so not sure if it’s behind a 3D Touch now?

E: a force kill and reopen brought it back, how odd.

I think I know vaguely what's going on here, trick will be reproducing it and actually fixing it. I think it's related to

Gunshow Poophole posted:

well now twitter linking works (THANK YOU) but embedding does not :(

Grace Baiting posted:

Here's a new minor bug: if you have only one post visible on a page and you tap in the blank space below that post (if it's the last page in the thread, you'll need to tap below the "End of the thread" text as well), the entire scrollable post view darkens for the duration of your tap, although the header or footer remain non-darkened. It looks like there's a tappable target down there which covers the entire scrollable posts view and rejects (or just passes through) taps on the posts themselves, but can be activated by itself to do nothing.

Ah yeah, that's a weird one. Thanks for the reminder to put it on the list.

along with it being seemingly more difficult to swipe back to where you were, but that might just be my imagination.

Just to double-check, this is swiping from the left screen edge to pop back to the thread list or bookmarks or whatever?

The app was crashing on my iPhone 4s when I tried to open a thread from bookmarks. I cleared the cache in settings and it seems better now

e: ok sometimes it needs clearing each time to open a thread

Should be fixed in the next version, sorry.

Not normal, no, but I made a big change to how posts are rendered so there's every chance I hosed something up here! I'll peruse the crash logs.

Yeah, it feels like it needs to be a bit more specific than usual now, but it could just be me so unless others chime in, probably safe to ignore.

I noticed this today as well. I’ve been hitting the back arrow icon because swipe right is too finicky

Swipe seems to register from the very edge of the screen, which is hard with a case that isn’t flush with the screen surface

Current version, iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 12.1:

Tapping quote-block header links does not jump back to the quoted post.

Holding them brings up the link handling menu like normal, and Open in Awful does what it should. [/workaround]

Normal hyperlinks in open text are unaffected, but I haven't tried hyperlinks in the body of quote blocks.

Pretty good

Today it came back and that didn't work.

I'm actually still on iOS version 12.0.1 if that helps work it out somehow. iPhone 6s.

Tweets aren't embedding properly on iOS 10.3.3 (this was true of the previous update as well). Only the text shows up. This happened every so often before, but now they never display right.

Edit: and I just noticed that the image for the menu in the lower right of posts is just displaying as an empty box.

Whenever you aren’t able to click a spoiler, you will also be unable to click a profile. But, if I close and restart, I can do both again no problem.

Just had a weird bug where I wasn’t able to tap any of the threads in my bookmarks page. Force closing the app and restarting fixed it

iPhone 8, iOS 12.1

E: happening a lot now. Long pressing to open the unread menu still works, and using 3D Touch to get into the thread works, but regular taps do nothing. Only happening in the bookmark tab.
