When I opened SpeakBits today I had two notifications. One of them was in reply to a comment I left on a post by u/speakbits asking for feedback on how to improve the site. I left some thoughts about rss-bot. After I was done replying to that reply, I opened my notifications again where I saw I also had a reply to a comment I left in a post also by u/speakbits asking for feedback about to handle deleted content. I clicked "see their comment" and the comments on my screen changed but the post didn't change, so for a moment I thought I had left that comment on the wrong post last night.
Also, in an attempt to reproduce this so I could take a screenshot and report the bug, I clicked "see previous notifications" in my notification flyout, and on that page when I click "see their comment," nothing happens except the url updates to https://www.speakbits.com/post/undefined/undefined
Also, I actually had to write this post twice because I accidentally closed the tab. On Reddit, and in my experience in most other social media sites, when you accidentally close a tab while still typing you can re-open that tab from your browser and it will remember what you were typing up to that point. But when I tried that here on SpeakBits it just showed me an empty page with something like "this post is private" in the center of the page. I would share a screenshot of that too but I can't seem to reproduce it. I've tried intentionally closing the tab now a couple of times but now all that happens is the post form is blank so idk what happened
I'm also wondering how SpeakBits handles user images? Now that I've pasted the above screenshot into this post there's no obvious way that I can see to explicitly delete it. I was able to adjust where it was in the layout of the post by putting my caret after it and pressing backspace, then pasting it again where I wanted to move it, but that doesn't tell me it's been deleted. Is it already uploaded to SpeakBits or is it in my cache or something? If I right click on it while in this editing mode and click "open image in new tab" Firefox goes to https://media.speakbits.com/skylestia/profile/28ba350e-8628-47bc-b05d-29678507626b.webp and then automatically redirects to a local url and puts the image in my downloads folder.
Been working on these bugs the last few days! Hoping they are all fixed but I will keep testing the next few days to ensure they are.
I'm working on that accidental close feature as well. Figuring it out now, but I agree that its a bit annoying to have to redo everything.
SpeakBits uploads the inline images to the server under your profile and creates a link to use in your post. You can view all uploaded images on your profile by clicking Images in the dropdown under your username at the top right. You're able to view, delete, and get the link directly to it from there. I'm not a fan of the auto download from the media link myself and I'm seeing if there is a better interaction available than that.
They seem fixed for me! Thanks!
Ah yeah I didn't notice the images tab on my profile before, seems to work great :)
Another one too (sorry lol),The video in this post doesn't play for me on Edge, but the audio plays. On Firefox, I get the error "No video with supported format and MIME type found."Edit: this was because I was missing the HEVC video extension in Windows, not a bug in SpeakBits
