missing post
I don't really like the titles on replies, either.
I consider it to be a minor annoyance, but one that I can live with by simply doing as I am told and entering 'title here' when it says to 'enter title here'. 😉
However, this afternoon when I returned and was checking email, I got a notification of a reply in a thread I was subscribed to (the 'More than one printer') thread which had, in the email, a partial included text of: 'Oh - I have just realised how to bypass the title!'
Of course I clicked on the link to the message as soon as I saw it.
However, rather than taking me to the message that was quoted, it took me to the top of the thread, indicating that someone (??) had removed the message, after it was posted, for some (??) reason.
Now, having, in a previous life, actually done coding for web fora in PHP and 'c', I thought back to some of the code I have written in the past to take user input (such as a title of a post) and sanity check it and correct minor issues, specifically some of the common things that some programmers forget to do, and also what might be an easy way to 'fake out' things and result in an apparently blank or null title.
Hint: It's all but trivial. Think about it. 😉
Now let's see if this message gets removed. 😉 😉 😉 (Do I need to post a note every so often saying that the 'canary' is still alive?) 😉 😉 😉
I wondered what happened to that post. I got it also.

Removal
I doubt it will. There must be a reason they have kept it.

I am not sure we can rule that out entirely.

Something changed on mobile?
I seem to have to do a lot of scrolling to log in when using mobile. That button seems to be non-responsive.
Is it just me, or is the bar with the login button now responsive, but the list of new posts requires scrolling on mobile?

I thought that might just be me. I have seen it also.

Resizing images in mobile?
Can anybody resize images on mobile without having to open them in a new tab?

Re: Resizing images in mobile?
Resize the whole post, check
Click on picture and then resize, check
Open in new tab and resize, check

Looks like Team Prusa is fixing things as we speak!
They seem to be making changes as we type. Now both the login AND article lists are responsive and resizing properly. Nice!
On a Pixel 3 phone, I am unable to resize anything by pinch & zoom in either landscape or portrait mode. I wonder if the "responsive" template is not handling smaller displays properly. The overall layout and ability to login is much better now (IMO).

Hey Team Prusa! If you're reading this!
Please restore the ability to paste formatted text with links. I have a few paragraphs of text with helpful links saved that I like to post in response to frequently asked questions. Having to manually reformat and recreate links takes a LOT of extra time.

Markdown
And while we're on that topic, Markdown support. I totally understand the interest in providing a visual editor but copying/pasting links and formatted text in Markdown is so much easier.

Interesting note: If you post, then EDIT your post, the ability to paste formatted text containing links works again. No idea why the font is completely different, etc. but it works.

There are a variety of apps that will allow you to format and then cut and past into a forum.

Which the new edit box promptly strips out! 😩😩😩

Yes, but since the "upgrade" that formatting is stripped out when you create a new post or reply. If you then edit your post, it works as before.
Try pasting in some formatted text with embedded links to see. Hopefully, they'll fix it quietly and you'll think I'm daft! 😩

Here's an example of my standard "Life Adjust" tip. I'm pasting this line when creating this post:
If you have not already done so, try Jeff Jordan's "Life Adjust" procedure for calibrating your Live-Z setting.
Notice no link. Now I'm going to paste that same line when EDITING the post:
