mr.yuck Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Have been getting this little message kicked to me on multiple threads when trying to like content. Generally it's only one react that backfires. The rest work fine. I can go back to the original react after cycling through different ones several times. Oh shit. Like @fat ralphysaid, I'm also having trouble uploading this PNG screen shot.

misteraven Posted March 27 Author Share Posted March 27 I believe it’s actually latency issues but unsure. Could be a slow connection or server issues. Very likely also amplified by how true apps handle that as well as caching so that all remains smooth. Anyhow, looking like the big forum update is pushed to April so will be a little longer before I can get too much deeper into it. Hopefully it remains usable and fun in the meantime. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat ralphy Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 @misteravenyeah for sure this is a huge leap in the right direction - looking forward to April. Also it has been good seeing an increase in traffic over the last weeks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppa.k Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Tried out the beta, here's my initial feedback. Platform: Android, Google Pixel, Firefox - All updated with the latest. - FF install was smooth. open the UI menu, tap install, add to homescreen. Boing boing. - I was already logged in through FF, that carries through. Boing. - Opens full screen with phone UI buttons visible. - I tried to write feedback here within the PWA but couldn't get the keyboard to stay active, it kept disappearing. Had to go back to browser tab version to do this. - Surfing around has a 4-5 second delay from tap to execute when tapping links. All links, not just the odd one. - Scrolling performance is pretty laggy. A little choppy, jumps around sometimes, and 50% of the time the initial swipe-to-scroll doesn't register, requiring multiple swipe attempts to continue down the screen. With longer photo threads it's pretty annoying. Some JS performance benchmarking and testing is in order for sure, but probably not worth it with this version as the new one is launching soon? Definitely need to keep on top of memory leaks, and some flame chart audits are good. I have a love/hate relationship with offloading everything into the front end, and much prefer native server, and nowadays SSR. Overall baseline performance is just better with SSR and progressive enhancement. I really like the caching opportunities and installation aspects of the PWA, but the caching can be a bit of a maintenance hair pulling lol. Solid first beta, but for now will have to stick to the browser tab version as it's much more performant. Boing Boing. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the details feedback and again, great to see you on here - Welcome back! Indeed, everything you mentioned makes sense and I've seen the same. As a PWA, the content being loaded isn't truly optimized to function this way. Needs more visual feedback and a lot more optimization. Sounds to me like you might be involved int his or something similar as a profession? Wondering what your experience is? Feel free to message me if you don't want to post on the board. Regardless, appreciate it and indeed, the next update will remedy a lot of this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tag1 2: Electric Boogaloo Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 If you did it in swift IIRC it would just need to send out WebRPC or Ajax or whatever requests to the site to get a bunch of json formatted database info that you'd need to display in webkit containers to make the HTML in posts work right, I wouldn't even bother. It's barely better on Android since the main language everyone uses is Java (fragmented into a bunch of stupid languages nobody has heard of that run on the Dalvik JVM like Groovy, Kotlin, etc) even though you can just write the whole program in C or C++ if you feel like it. The only advantage android has for stuff like this are things like the F-Droid repositories that let you distribute your stuff without getting it signed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super fast response between page loads etc I noticed an improvement on images loads from yesterday. I couldn’t get my bench page to load most of the times, images would be question marks and not load. You could click on them and the image would open, but it was really annoying and prevented me from posting when I wanted to. Seems to load fine now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteraven Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 The big update promised hasn’t happened yet. Still waiting on an update from the developers. But hoping the small refinements and optimizations to the environment help. Hopefully it’ll all dial in soon. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteraven Posted May 13 Author Share Posted May 13 @T4M* Yeah, there's been some issues with Amazon Web Services that borked the four a bit last week. Should be sorted out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteraven Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 Just an update... We're still waiting on the next major forum software release. Was supposed to be in March, then rolled into April and recently found out that it'll be a bit longer. Since they blew the original deadlines, they aren't setting a date due to all the complaints, but if I had to guess, should still be something in the summer. I'll keep you guys posted, but just wanted to mention this so you don't think it's fallen in the cracks. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat ralphy Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 (edited) Has the app always had this feature that lets you sort by All Topics? Does it push up all the threads with most recent posts? Edited June 19 by fat ralphy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it push up all the threads with most recent posts? Yes, it's always been there. There's nothing that's been added since it launched and as mentioned deeper in this thread, this is essentially a progressive web app, meaning its a mobile optimized version of this actual website, same as what's served up in a browser that has been contained into a package.

simon sandleshit Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Really liking using the app, besides the delay on clicking links into the specific forums everything else loads pretty quickly for me. It is definitely less clunkier for me than going through a phone browser. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4M* Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 12oz not acting right. Pages take two clicks to load and it power post for ya (double posts). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteraven Posted August 11 Author Share Posted August 11 Wonder if it’s actually just a lag? There’s no visual feedback on loading and as mentioned before, this doesn’t have the advanced caching that most finished mobile apps have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
