Just some quick features!

When creating a post there’s now a button to suggest a title based on the URL you entered. Just enter a URL then click “Suggest Title”

Then if you want to use that title hit the button!

You can create a post without first visiting the community by clicking the new “+” button in the header. The menu looks a little bit empty right now, but I’ll add more stuff here later.

Also:

  • Added the ability to edit/delete/report private messages
  • Links to external sites in markdown now open in a new tab
  • If you have the “Keep navigation sidebar open” setting enabled, it will now open by default

    Thanks for giving it so much thought!

    I agree that it’s super annoying when stuff moves on the page. I like the idea of putting the URL first, since it matches the flow. Pasting the URL first also lets you compose your thoughts and the fetched title would probably help with that.

    Perhaps there could be two textboxes, one for the user to edit from scratch, and one fetched automatically (but also editable). Clicking on one disables the other. This doesn’t move or change the UI for the user unexpectedly, and still let’s us fetch the title automatically.

    Something like this:

    alternative input UI with additional textbox

    This might add complexity though.

    Edit: the “Suggest title” button would go away too, of course

      I’ve been considering something similar to that too, I’ll give it some more thought. Might end up switching those textboxes around. Also when I someday am able to add image uploading I might need to move things around anyway so anything here could change lol
