#1764·Dennis HackethalOP, 10 days agoThe way IG solves this is by rendering the form in a fixed position. It’s still on the bottom but always remains visible.
Facebook does it this way, too.
#453·Dennis HackethalOP, about 1 year agoThe more ideas there are in a discussion, the further the form for top-level ideas is pushed down. Then people don’t know how to submit a new idea and comment on an existing one instead, even if it’s unrelated, as happened with #448. So I need to make this clearer.
Reddit is a bit different because they have multiple subreddits/communities, but each community has top-level posts which people can then comment on. They have a completely separate page/UI for top-level posts. And then directly underneath a top-level post, there’s a textarea saying “Join the conversation”.
#1765·Dennis HackethalOP, 10 days agoThat would make idea URLs more meaningful, but there’s something simple and beautiful about the shorter URLs that only have the numeric ID.
Could have backwards compatibility for the short version and continue using the hashtag in the UI. Best of both worlds?
#1763·Dennis HackethalOP, 10 days agoUse friendly IDs for ideas? A ‘mixture’ where URLs say '/ideas/123-first-30-or-so-chars-of-idea-here'.

#1761·Dennis HackethalOP, 10 days agoFriendly IDs for discussions would be nice. With automatic redirects for numeric ID from legacy links.

All emails have unsubscribe links, but people shouldn’t be able to unsubscribe from system emails like password resets.
#1753·Dennis HackethalOP, 11 days agoI should revisit this now that I have email infrastructure in place.

#1752·Dennis HackethalOP, 11 days agoSee #595. The form for new ideas is pushed to the very bottom of the discussion page. For long discussion, that means users won’t know where to submit new ideas.
Duplicate of #453.
#1136·Dennis HackethalOP, 8 months agoWorkaround: have users email me for password reset for now. Re-evaluate when I have enough users to merit additional infrastructure for sending emails.

#417·Dennis HackethalOP, about 1 year agoThere’s a bug where hovering over a link in the markdown preview removes the form and all typed text. Hovering over a link should have no effect on the form.

If we use thecorrespondancecorrespondence theory of truth, then truth consists of explanations that correspond "perfectly" to reality. In that sense all our statements are false: we don't have those explanations that perfectly correspond, all our actual statements are approximations, or deductions from approximations (1+1=2 is a deduction from a set of explanations, but that set is not entirely true - since the set is inconsistent and incomplete)
