45 minute turn-around time on a bug fix, I'm getting rough around the edges :(
Anyway, the flip-and-move bug is now fixed. Go hog wild.

Extending the contest a bit 'cos why not. I'll gift a tacnayn to the chosen user in addition to stickering with one.

We can pick our own. If wickedly devilish enough maybe we'll all choose the same.

This was a mistake, sorry about that. You were one of a very few unlucky ones affected by that bug.

Yea we also have "Hide known reposts" and "I've seen it" lab features that will help mitigate the problem for those …

We've been planning this for a while, and made some small steps toward it. I updated the UserVoice item to reflect its current status, s…

Not many people used it, but we think the idea of it has some value so we're thinking about a better and cleaner way to bring it back.

No blacklisting - we're working on a more elegant solution than that. Image zooming would be nice, but also a lot of work so it's no…

We removed the outlines on anything but white text for now - we're rethinking the text tool now though as it does need more work. Saving…

It's not a bug though - we've removed any "context" or modality from the navigation bar.

We're working on a fix for that. We always have multiple things in the pipeline at once. Thanks.

Don't think it's been posted already, but the short 12 Monkeys is based on is great (La Jetee).

Thanks for the feedback. You're right there are more clicks involved now, but also less noise/clutter - each step is clearer. We'll …

Great point about the moving undo button, thanks. I hadn't realized that was an issue.
Also, that bug was a side-effect of an improveme…

Yeah I'd like to make the "start a thread" flow work with the browser back button, good point.

Awesome. There's a mini version of Legos? :O

Heh a minecraft file manager would be.. interesting. Move files around, destroy them, set them on fire.

Going even deeper, now the web browser itself can run Quake, emulate x86 (and run Linux), etc.

Some people genuinely don't know what they're posting is a repost that most everyone's seen before.

If you give someone an "epic sticker", you can choose to attach a message with it. See: https://canv.as/p/ppm7p

No stickers are actually lost, it's just reporting the count incorrectly for some people. Sorry about that.

Sorry about that. Which version of Chrome are you using (and is it beta / canary), and on what OS?

Odd. Yea, please let me know - I was just messing around with some activity-related stuff yesterday so I thought it might be related.

Realtime stickers are gone for now - they were pretty cool but confused some users (like when you scroll down in the browse pages). I really…

The sticker message is not exposed. The message you see there is the caption given in the post that was stickered.

You're welcome :) Here's the official announcement thread: https://canv.as/p/il0nq

Attaching a private message to a sticker is not anonymous because it would be too ripe for abuse / trolling.

What if this caused neighbors to catch on fire :O
(If this wins, I'm not the one implementing this idea :p)

Pinned is gone - the Dashboard and your activity stream replace it. We're planning some nice updates to the activity notifications that …

We're overhauling the activity stream and this is one of the things I'd like to improve, thanks.

You also get to see things that get epic stickers from people you follow in your feed, so you can be exposed to a wider variety of content.
