Coming soon:

  1. Updating the 'hot' algorithm to be about 35% faster so the front page changes more frequently now that we have more content.

  2. "Block user" capability, to completely remove a user and their posts and comments from appearing on your view of the site. Currently users can be blocked from private messages, but nothing else.

  3. "Do not show sub CSS" checkbox on the right bar of every sub. Currently it can only be disabled for all subs at once in your user preferences.

/s/internet will be exempt, as clearly it'd be a sin to not gaze upon its loveliness.

You know nothing about branding, Jon Snow.

What does it hinder?

it makes me feel like a tweaker that's been up for two weeks getting chased by shadow people. the saidit logo is the shadow people chasing me.

branding schmamding, it's like printing Pepsi on the inside of cups so you can see it while you are drinking.

Trust me. I have not been excessive with SaidIt branding.

Thnks 4 the good work bro. This might yet become something really good (until it goes full business mode like it seems to happen to all good companies)

I'd rather block a user's posts than block their messages, since messages are often pretty important.

That's a great point, 'block' already has a meaning which is 'block messages' and a page for it: https://saidit.net/prefs/blocked/

I propose we rename the existing 'block' to 'block messages' and have the new link read and 'block' and mean 'block posts and comments'. And both types of blocks could be listed separately on https://saidit.net/prefs/blocked/ I wonder how RES does it and their terminology. Maybe 'block user' is fine.

Sound like 3 options:

  • block posts
  • block comments
  • block user

I think it's just fine still. But I'm not a pro-user.

Can you try 10% first?

Or maybe lay out a chart of the past and future? Then we can weigh in and collectively determine the rate.

Can you add a user CSS preference to view a single CSS site wide?

Maybe with the option to override all subs, as well as the option to be overwritten only by subs' custom CSS?
