@SMCJB raised an issue elsewhere that made me realize there is room for improvement with search to consider the number of replies in a thread, not just recency and relevancy, to try to weigh more on bigger threads.
I will think about the right way to weight it. I have added to my list.
Test search phrase should be 'cl' or 'crude'.

Well, that took a while longer than expected. Datacenter ended up installing water cooling to make sure we don't run into future thermal problems again.
Sorry for the downtime.

@
Eubie could you refresh our homepage and send me another
screenshot of activity flow, in both orientations if possible.
I duplicated the "jumping" bug and will try to resolve, but made other changes that may have helped.
What model phone do you have?
It seems to have helped! I have a Samsung Galaxy S21.

Awesome thank you for sharing. I'm still working on why it resizes when changing view to online members. The default view should collapse more than it does by default instead, I think.

Thanks to @bobwest , I found and fixed a serious problem having to do with our newsletters and the links being displayed correctly.
My prior method that provides the helper to login was truncating the style element of the <a> tag. That is now no longer the case.
I mention it here just in case it broke something new, so if you see weird link behavior inside emails after now, please do let me know.

Everyone,
I have disabled the ability to mention me (@Big Mike). I did this because I cannot read them all, sorry. If you need to reach me, the best way is here in the changelog thread.

A recent newsletter email raised some red flags and questions from certain members ( @wldman ie).
I was boxed in on this particular email, but won't allow such a thing to happen again.
We do have content guidelines and they will be enforced for future sponsored newsletter content. I encourage you to view it, attached as PDF.
I welcome any further discussion on the topic.

Mike. My objection was not even tangentially aimed at you. I am sorry if I came across as finding fault or taking issue with you. I'll do better to think it through before I type.
