Mobile is not a better ui than tapa. It just isn’t.

 

It def has better functionality, I’ll give you that. And as a long time tapa user who finally got comfortable with mobile at your insistence, I’m now pretty familiar with it but I do switch back and forth. The tapa ui is just straight up easier to follow and use.

I used tapa before mainly and then it fell off a cliff. They stopped doing active development and the experience is pretty much just dogshit. 

Oh yea I get that.

 

im just saying their ui design is better. I realize the nuts and bolts are borked. 

I've been on shaggy/surly for probably 20 years and I still have no idea what tapatalk is.  it's an app?  not a browser.

Unclear if it is my ATT gateway or ATT generally, but surly is blocked for me. I can not access it through any device on my network except by using a vpn, and then it works fine. I have the gateway in pass through mode going to EERO router, so I don't think it is the physical hardware.

ATT Peering issue to the whole datacenter in Dallas. ATT is fucked. 

Don’t them cocksuckers know we have important things to discuss about curtains and cryptic symbol messages?!!!?

 

Jerry Jones did this. Skeletor mother fucker. 

I mean, am I supposed to fucking work or something? It's the fucking holidays for chrissakes!

Shits probably not borked but I did something to my layout where now the avatars and username are above the post they make. I dont know if I inadvertently did something to my settings, or something?

try refreshing a bunch or switching themes down at the bottom of the page and switching back.

The constant Carters add at seemingly every click then having to "x" 5-10 times to get rid of it is a really bad experience.

It's a mac. The add only occurs on this site, but occurs on every thread on this site (for me)

I just cleared all my shit out. Gone now, I think.

Not Tapa, using the Surly UI.
 
Trying to upload pics from my phone (a process I have done via my Android devices hundreds of times) & it seems to accept the image / skips to the next step in the process (shows a preview of the image about to be inserted) it never as how's that expected "preview" Step & instead reloads the entire page with Ø image.

Has happened in Coak room & CYHMWT.



Getting an error that says "error repeatedly occured on ... and then the thread url" every time I scroll down the page on any thread on ios.

I’m getting this a fair bit. Seems to happen more when scrolling quickly through a thread.

Same 

Android chrome mobile, every time I get to a tweet embed, it hangs up now. Can't scroll down to next post for 10-20 seconds then it shoots to the bottom of the thread. Reminds me of dialup days. What am I doing wrong?

Nothing it's all fucked up because the lazy load is broken and if I fix it it does the platform.twitter.com thing. 

I think I figured it out. Keep your finger on the very edge of the screen. Dont touch the tweet. It will still scroll. Easy work around.

Twitter sucks. 

I’m not even clicking on a Tweet within a post, then all of a sudden the Surly page reloads to a page with just the Tweet. So then I click the back button and it either just reloads the same Tweet or some other Tweet. I can never go back to the original thread I was browsing prior to the Twitter post hijacking the page.

Yup. Driving me crazy. Can we just get rid of that shit sites embeds again.

Also super strange since any logged in user shouldn't have a sticky bottom at all. That unit is disabled for logged in.

Twitter embeds suck. The back swipe/button had been fixed when on iPhone and now it’s worse than ever for me.

I've only noticed it with Twitter embeds so far. And the annoying page load behavior is back where it jumps around for 30 seconds because Twitter is deep fried ass and loads slower than a Greg Davis screen pass

Getting this constantly and it fucking sucks. 

I get that as well on any page that has a lot of photos.

I cannot even get to the bottom of Uniform Porn before it boots me out.
