My talks with Vanilla

[DerekJohnson]

The site will look a bit different but still function largely the same. In terms of changes, there's one good news and one bad news. The good news is that when we go to quote someone's post, the entire post will show up in the quote feature. It will be nice to have that back. The bad news is that they say there's nothing that can be done to fix the need to type "twitter" every time we embed a tweet. They say it is something that X needs to fix in order to function the way we want it to.
The old logo doesn't fit on the new banner, so it being redesigned by a new graphics contractor I hired in order to fit it properly.

Thanks Taft!

So X needs to make sure that when you hit the "share" button to come paste it here, that they give you a link that contains the old base uri?
They really can't reg-replace the value in just whatever js/webA framework they're using?
Not that I care but it definitely smells like they simply don't want to.

Seeing the new version of the site now. Things look a little odd, but nothing we can't get used to. Notifications red though. Hard to notice them…

 

[SpoonieLuv]

I don’t know the difference

It's the result of hours and hours of Vanilla devs smoking pot & hitting the bottle.

Super common really.

Thank you to glorious and benevolent leader for dealing with capitalist pig dogs of Vanilla. Without your shining guidance we surely would continue to be lost in a forest of quote errors.

[RaceBannon]

No changes were supposed to be made yet. So I do not know what is going on. I'm very unhappy.

It looks ok on my phone. Awful on the PC. Font sixe hurts my eyes. Will try the non mobile version today and see if it’s any better.

There is no non mobile version.

And bring back my Post Comment on the right like normal civilized people are used to. I've fucking saved about 15 drafts since yesterday.
Change is hard.

Oh man. Yeah, the full screen PC version is way worse than mobile browser. Yikes.

@VanillaSupport’s incompetence is quite impressive.
