Smaller update (trying to get into a shorter dev cycle)
Images – We have a quick-and-dirty solution to most of the missing images from the sequences. Longterm, we plan to replace them with the higher res images from Said Achmiz’s ReadTheSequences.com. Some non-sequence image links are still broken, which will be a bit more annoying to get up and running.
Events in Recent Discussion – We’re still thinking about how to properly incorporate meetups (both in having them appear on the frontpage, and in having the community page be a place that people have a reason to check regularly).
But, meanwhile, we added Event posts to the Recent Discussion section, to help give them a bit more visibility. (They’ll show up when someone first posts an event, and again if they event is commented on)
Shorter window of comments appearing in Recent Discussion – Some people have complained that some comments in Recent Discussion are old, which makes it harder to quickly check if you’ve seen all the latest things in that section. Previously, I’d made it so that if a post was recently commented on, in appeared in Discussion with all comments from the past 2 days visible.
I just shortened that window to 18 hours, hoping that’d capture enough recent comments to see the latest chunk of conversation, but no so much that you’ll see a bunch of old comments over and over.
Slight Tweak to Padding on mobile – Special thanks to James Lamine who did his first open source contribution to site, updating the padding on mobile-size screens to look a bit nicer.
