Auto-save for "quick-reply", bugs, other tedious stuff

May 9, 201510 yr

When you write a message, it'll auto-save. This is only available in the full editor. I hardly use the full editor due to the fact that I can't see other messages while replying. When on my phone, it's hard avoiding all the ads and other clickable links/buttons while posing, so I tend to waste a lot of time writing messages. Please, add auto-save to the quick-reply editor. There's no reason to even use the full editor in my eyes, seeing how I can format my text just the same in the quick-reply editor.

While using the generic Quote button, the blinking cursor will randomly get out of sync with my mouse clicks. To fix it, I gotta click on something else (so the text box loses focus), then click on it again. Tedious stuff.

The navigation doesn't appear on your homepage while on mobile. To access the forums, I have to include /forum at the end of the url. Tedious stuff.

Mobile doesn't have formatting tools (not even in the full editor). When I request for desktop site, it appears.

This has been going on for a while now (ever since I joined the community), and it doesn't seem like anyone is pointing it out. I use my phone 90% of the time I'm accessing the internet. Please, make the site functional for mobile. I don't care about the viewport, as long as I don't have to jump through hoops to do some basic stuff.

Chrome on Android may refresh a tab as well, depending on how long you've been away from it. My guides are sometimes long, and I write them in chunks (I'm a busy guy, gotta pace myself). When I go back and notice all my work is gone, I don't even bother re-writing it. All those guides down the drain

Thanks for reading. I'm simply asking for fixes; for all I care, they could be cheap fixes. I just want to be able to use this site without worrying about leaving the page by clicking the wrong button, with all my work going to waste. By the time I'm finished writing a guide on my phone, I pop out the good ol S Pen, zoom in all the way and make sure i hold down the send button until a fragment pops up asking me "open in new tab?" confirming the link. I feel like a paranoid freak just trying to publish my stuff. As the scroll bar gets smaller (and my guides get longer), I start getting anxious, questioning "is it worth it? should i continue?" and "why do i keep putting myself through this". You know, questioning life and stuff... Auto-saving on quick reply and fixing the formatting system (and auto save system) for mobile would do wonders. I'm sure others use their phones as well!

Idk if they have control over that stuff. I think it follows a relatively strict format

I've never used IP, but I'm aware that such modifications are possible for other forum providers.

Hopefully we'll get some kind of statement on this, cause the "homepage navigation not appearing on mobile" issue is extremely tedious /: (and I just noticed your message; replying now )
