First thing you'll probably notice when commenting is that it doesn't take an extra new line for EVERY linebreak now :)
Linebreaks should work identically to how they look visually in the textbox now, none of this 'hit enter 3 times for a new line' bullshit.'
Post-expansion of selfposts and posts w/ thumbnails (and in future video) is now supported site wide. Additionally, when viewing the comment page of a post, the selfposts/images/(future videos) now load expanded by default.
Thirdly, I often get requests on stats, so here you go. I wrote a stat page, and added a link to it in README.md (the about page).
You could go to the about page and find the link, but I'll just include it here :)
This page deals with a LOT of data, so don't be surprised if it takes awile on first load. After first load, it will be cached for 10 minutes though, and will be much faster :)
Good progress was made in only a few hours today. God bless adderall.
EDIT: the site has video expansion now, but right now the only videos that can be expanded are youtube links. the expansion functionality will work retroactively for every youtube video that was posted here too.
EDIT2: So I had an idea of how to implement caching without a large time investment. As of now, pretty much EVERYTHING is cached, and the cache is cleared on every POST request. While at first this doesn't seem like it would be very useful, as it certainly is not the proper (and time consuming...) way to do things, the ratio of reads to updates on this site is often above 500:1. While I'll still have to implement shit properly in the future, this was basically a free across-the-board performance gain with no sacrifices.
EDIT3: I finally added moz-fill-avaliable, in addition to webkit-fill-available, so the issue of some elements not being full width in some browsers should be dramatically reduced.
right now it's halfway between two designs. one is a red border, one is red 'nsfw' text that shows up in the post. not sure which one would be superior
not yet. i intentionally go out of my way to collect as little data as possible, but I don't see that as too privacy violating and will probably offer it in the future.
