This is a thread for all of those little features on 4chan, addons, or wherever else that you miss and would like to have here.
150 replies and 42 files omitted.

Glad you like it. Feel free to give feedback on any improvements or bugs you might encounter.

Going to take a little rest from coding, and then tomorrow try to look over what all have said and my notes on other improvements that are desired.
There is a bug where the "hide image" don't save it to user settings, so on reload the image is show again, but I will look at that tomorrow.

Ok, so after using it a bit:
- scrolling should be instant instead of smooth scrolling
- should highlight the first unread comment (same as #postid does in the url)
- longer thread names should be shortened instead of braking it into multiple lines

Can we do something about the current state of /vx/? Threads from 8 years ago are still on the catalog.

I like the overboard but it doesn't actually show ALL the latest posts on the this chan. If the thread is autosaging it doesn't show up on the top of the list as the latest most recent post. I don't know if this is working as intended or something that is warranted for a change, but something I noticed.

Love the thread wather. What do people think about having the originating board of the watched thread on the left, instead of the right like in the second picture?

Did some improvements to the thread watcher. It should now update across tabs when you update it in one. Also added an option to add "remove" button next to thread links so you can easily remove from there. Also moved the /board/ to the front of links.
Will do some more tinkering later on improvements in other areas of thread watcher, scroll to last read and other areas.

Thanks for that Pupper, I appreciate it. Doing {YOUR_FAVOURITE_PONE}s work. I suppose it depends on the resolution of someones monitor or it's orientation but you can keep adding threads to the watcher past where you can interact with it, though I doubt there will be many people with a list as long as picrel.

As an aside, all tabs updated when removing all those threads from the watcher, so that works as intended.

It's a ded board, what did you expect? most people looking to get /v/ probably don't even know what /vx/ is and assume it's not vidya.

Good work, lots of little QoL bumps over the week, even if the refugees are gone this was worth it.

I added that icon due to the way resize of textarea works in the Quickreply (resize the quickreply dialog box), and people had trouble finding out how. I added it in hope that it would be a little guide/hint. It has not been there for long so could be reason you didn't notice it before.

Here's another frequently used QoL suggestion while you nail down the thread watcher.

Thread hiding from the catalog.
>Either with a [hide] button next to the others like [last 50] or with Shift+Click.

It looks like nhnb does have it but the function is broken, no surprises there. It can hide threads, but never keeps track of it in the filter list. So if you accidentally hide a thread, you're just permanently going to live with that. And if you wanted to hide a thread for a while, but look at it later can't do that either.

It's a nice addition, truth be told. The standard size of the QR box shrinks when you add a picture, which is confusing for a new user. Thank you.

When I want to hide a thread, I don't plan on revisiting it afterward, though a catalogue hide button would be helpful for the inevitable shitposting that'll be incumen in.

Granted, that is usually how most people will use it. Though for nhnb it was just testing out the function and now that thread is gone like a blackhole to me.

Clear your cache, if that doesn't work then try another browser in private mode and report back.

It worked, thread that was hidden was brought back when I cleared browser settings. However, ALL of the watched threads I had were deleted with it too. I genuinely do not like anything about that board, it's made with spaghettis code and run by a team of aspies.

At least now I might know why the thread watcher would fail at random, it was probably cache/cookie related. And all the threads I watched from here are gone too, but the ones on 4chanX remain even if I clear the browser data. This could also be why people were complaining about watched threads here not working right, more browser hiccups

Ruffle can run flash embeds on modern browsers.

If you get around to an auto-updating a thread watcher...
8moe has a counter for unread updates in their thread watcher. With the watcher set to minimized here it could benefit from a similar update like [(#) TW] the # being how many threads have updates since last opened.
