With the new board and a few extra-eventful weeks, I'm hitting the Message Center a lot more than I have in a while, and one thing I realize is that I have a ton of old closed threads on my subscribed list.
The quickest way to clean them up is to do it from the nice shiny buttons in the subscriptions tab in my profile, but it would be helpful to have some kind of closed/locked indicator (either the locked icon or a text [closed], don't really mind which) on the expired threads there so I could clean them up all at once without accidentally unsubbing from any active ones.
Also, if it would be better to file issues on Gitlab, just let me know. One of these days, I might even try to get set up to contribute code, which I think I made vague gestures about many months ago.
Thanks Dana.
Reporting issues on Gitlab is good. It keeps things organized. Contribution would be very much welcome :)
Gud, is is possible to pin posts, here? I'm just thinking if you would like us (all) to report on GitLab, or at least review the issues list there, a pinned tweet might serve as a reminder to do so.
Adding a link to gitlab in the thread description would do the same thing without requiring any technical changes - Gud, would that work for your process?
That's a good idea. I didn't mean to sound like I was requesting pinned post functionality, if it doesn't already exist. I just don't want to swamp the thread with known issues.
Is it possible for the threads in which I have unread posts can appear before those that don't?
This is a thing that I though possibly was me, but it is happening a lot. When I hit read new, the page breifly flashes on the previous thread I was reading before going to read new. So if I read Spike's Bitches, I am in Natter, I hit read new, and I briefly flash on Spike's Bitches before going to Marvel's infinite Chrises. Anyone else?
ETA: It is not consistant. because I just did two read news after this one, and that did not happen.
I see it happen. I figured it was rechecking for messages, or something like that, which is probably completely wrong.
I have also experienced that
That's what I figured too, and it is a think that is not make or break for me at all, just weird.
