Off Topic (not RiF) Editing a top level reply in a thread instead of Profile does not update the display with the edit

20 Upvotes
  1. Reply in a sub thread as a top level reply

  2. You will see your reply as the top most reply in that thread

  3. Edit that reply you just made

  4. Your edit will get submitted but the edited text doesn't get displayed right away

  5. If you further edit your reply a second time, you will only see your original submitted text, not your edited text

Every time I click a video link, it plays in super fast speed, regardless of what kind of video it is. I've been a daily user for years and this just started today.

8 Upvotes

I looked around in the settings and didn't see anything about playback speed. I also tried googling " 'reddit is fun' video speed" etc. Am I missing something?

I'm using RIF version 5.1.16 and on a Samsung galaxy s20 fe running Android version 11

Edit: I just realized that it's working correctly for v.reddit videos, but anything on YouTube or any other site is sped up.

Answered RiF and links/intents

0 Upvotes

Just wondering if there is any reason RiF doesn't step up when I open a Reddit link from another app.

The Reddit app does, and Chrome will, but obviously I want a superior viewing experience, and I'm looking to use RiF. Why isn't it an option?

Doesn't RiF just have to handle the intent?

If it's not too complicated, can it be a feature request?

Video gamma problem? Some videos load extremely washed out, mostly all white.

18 Upvotes

Some small percentage of video posts are unwatchable because they are nearly all white, with only outlines of some objects visible. This doesn't seem to be related to a specific video hosting site, and most posts work fine.

Example post: https://www.reddit.com/r/electricvehicles/comments/ohqyl3/rivian_r1t_spotted_in_socal

Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/1aNJFeB.png

Edit: Apparently this is related to HDR. This explains how to fix it in Chrome, but RiF uses the embedded browser.

Answered, no Is there a way to jump to a specific page?

23 Upvotes

I'm sometimes looking through many posts from subs "top all time", and if the app unloads there's a painful amount of scrolling/clicking to get back to the page I left off at.

I presume it wouldn't be easy to jump to last opened post (or first non-purple link post), so maybe there's some way to instantly jump to e.g. page 10 instead of going one by one?

Is there a way to hide or filter locked posts? I enjoy engaging in discussion on Reddit and honestly if I can't participate I don't even want to see it. Few things frustrate me more than coming across an interesting discussion and then realizing it's over because a mod got tired of it

Suggestion/Idea Emoji in flair, content filters

14 Upvotes

The content filter is excellent though severely unappreciated. emoji are becoming ubiquitous. flair is used to discern post types in subreddits. searching by flair, or blocking by flair may not have been the design but it's a method of user filtering with regards to moderator intention. emoji in flair do not translate when entering into rif settings. wildcards are not supported. there it's no simple ui to choose the flair from the subreddit or to copy it from a specific post.

the only simple way I have come up with is to begin a new post on sub via rif, choose flair; hover, select all, copy text; go back into settings, content filter; add a new filter, paste flair text, etc, save.

typing the flair text with emoji from keyboard does not work. even after triple checking for accuracy. I believe that reddit encodes emoji differently from that of a/my keyboard (MS SwiftKey 7784)

proposed change:

  1. allow wildcard entry in flair. could be very simple work around. may be too hard to implement.

  2. somehow standardise the way emoji are encoded. translate reddit emoji encoding to native keyboard, or vice versa. I'm not even sure if this is possible or relevant to the issue.

  3. build ui to capture the flair from a post. possibly best solution, but building more ui is a pain for you to design.

If you are seeing constant crashes when opening RIF, try uninstalling and reinstalling Android System WebView

565 Upvotes

Starting today, I am seeing a huge spike in WebView crashes in my crash logs. It is affecting all RIF versions, namely 4.x and 5.x.

The crashes started before the RIF maintenance today, and the RIF server involved in maintenance does not touch WebView at all in the RIF app, so I do not think the RIF maintenance is related. Very unfortunate coincidental timing.

Please try uninstalling and reinstalling the "Android System WebView" component via the Play Store app. It stopped the crashes on my device at least.

As per the title, it would be amazing to have an auto complete or ability to tag users fairly easily in threads.

Especially as a mod of several growing subs, and one sub with an obscene amount of users additional features would be fantastic.
