New features? New features!

I just upgraded to the latest version of the site software and it didn’t even crash which was a refreshing change.

Apparently the latest version has these new features. They look interesting, so I’m passing them along. I haven’t tested, looked at, or investigated any of these new features. My sole contribution was a cut and paste.

User Status

Users can set a custom emoji and message to share their current status with the community.

:sparkles:

Customizable Sidebar

Community members can add categories, tags, and chat channels to their sidebar for easy access to the discussions they care most about.

:speech_balloon:

Chat in real time

Create channels for community members to chat more informally and build relationships.

I was in probably fifth grade when we got our VCR. I read the manual and learned how to program the clock, as well as program it to record a specific channel at a specific date and time. Flash Gordon was one of the first VHS tapes that my family borrowed from the library. Good times.

Can we please get an option besides the heart option? I would like to have a heart, hug, and cry reaction option so that I can react according to the sentiment of the post.

We will take this under advisement.

And you know what that means.

:heart:, :people_hugging:, and :rofl: options are the one’s I’d vote for.

Was something tweaked to affect the layout of the “landing” page? I used to just see the broad category forums and their sub-forums. Now this is squished to one side and I see a listing of “threads” with new posts.

For me, this is way too busy and I’m not sure if I can change it.

yeah doing some tinkering on the Google problems. I’ll set it back shortly.

I realize that it’s likely just built into the upgrade, but I applaud and appreciate our new capability to give reactions beyond just the simple heart/like! Thank you!

Less feature! Some images are not showing up. Might be my machine, but I’m guessing it’s your machine.

example?

Yes, images are a problem.

There is one in “Republicans say the darndest” in a post by Rastiln.

15

it would be helpful if you could point to a specific post, I don’t see any issues in that thread.

This one.
I don’t see an image.

EDIT:
OK, on my personal PC, I see the image.
