I didn't know that it worked this way.

It works on mobile now!

Yep. Thanks!

We are going to need a user manual to explain all the new changes. 

I like the board look and functionality a lot.  100% improvement.

I could actually do that pretty quickly.  A sort of woopig wiki.  But you bastards would never use it, you'd just come here and post about how gawd-awful everything is.

So is that a NO?

I wanted to get in early on the bitching.

I like the new layout.  All works fine on my iMac where it just comes up in a Safari browser window with forward/back arrows, a search field, and my favorite bookmarks. 
BUT on my iPad (about half the time) and on my iPhone (all the time) the "woopig.org" completely takes over the browser window.  The arrows and standard browser window functions are all gone. This makes navigation a bit of a pain.
Also, the "NEW" designation on a post does not go away as it once did after a post is read and the page later returned to.

I like the new embedding of Facebook videos, but is the video playing for anyone else. It just starts and stops for me.

Same here. Starts and stops.

This is a Facebook tracker problem.  I see the warning: "This will allow "facebook.com" to track your activity."  The new embedder is blocking their tracking attempts, which causes Facebook to abort the video after a couple seconds.  I'm not in love with this kind of thing.

I'll see if there's a workaround.

It works for me on my desktop for the Facebook video.

Firefox doesn't work at all
Chrome-Based works for me

Haven't tried anything on mobile.

The embedder now uses Facebook's preferred sdk.  However, many if not most ad-blocking browser extensions and DNS blockers will prohibit Facebook's invasive cross-platform tracking.  If this happens on your device, you should now see a card explaining the situation and advising you to click through to watch on Facebook.  If you want to see the video here, you can whitelist connect.facebook.net and www.facebook.com from your blocker or disable the extension.

I've also updated YouTube and Reddit embedding and tracking to current best-practices to balance performance and privacy.  Instagram and Tiktok embedding is unchanged.

Let me know if you notice any wrong behavior, or if you'd very much like to see another platform added to the media embedder.

The "UNREAD" button on the bottom of the page has turned transparent.  I noticed it on both Safari on the IPhone and Chrome on the CPUs.

Edit: this is not a bitch, complaint, or whinning.  Just an observation.  Change it.  Don't.  I'm breezy.

They're all "glassmorphic" now.  Just seeing what it looks like.

This is starting to remind me of that movie The Pentagon Wars where all the generals were like...we gotta get some fire power up on that bitch...you can't shoot anybody with that little pecker.
