How long?
Hopefully an hour, no more than 2 hoursWhy?
Backups are getting out of date and we have installed any software updates for a few monthsWhat is changing?
Probably very little. Looks like the software updates are bug fixes and a lot of backend changesThere is a major UI update coming in the next couple of months, the backend changes seem to be in preparation for that. Nodebb will look a bit more like Discourse or Flarum from what I've seen.. not much change for phone users but an improvement for tablet & computer users

There's a few minor issues (it's been a long time since the last update)
There may be some small ~5sec outages as I fix those

Like the new symbol which makes it clearer you've upvoted something.
Both times I've gone to open my notifications bar, it's defaulted to the status tab and I then have to go to tap on the notifications tab. Make sense?
Edit, scratch that, just tried again and it's ok.

Full page chat view has a few issues. Plus some buttons are the wrong colour in dark mode
Will get around to fixing this stuff eventually

Stuff articles still don't embed. Or is that caused by something on the Stuff website?

They used to, then they stopped with no changes at this end.

I was wondering if it was to do with the i-stuff Vs stuff URL?
Edit, seems not.

@Duluth The
icon at the top of the sceen to search for "tags" has disappeared. Is it possible to get that back?

Another thing: on the "Categories" page, under "Provinces", the four South Island provinces have disappeared.

More difficult to fix this. I've turned off that area for now

All looks very different on my iPad now and has lost the date/time stamps on posts.
No dark mode either. -

No dark mode either.But it looks correct on other devices/computers?
Have you tried clearing your browser cache?
I often use chrome on an ipad and just tested with safari and it seems fine. Does anyone else have a similar problem?

I'm having this happen every time I open the "app". Mildly annoying. I have the website saved as an app on the "desktop". Chrome on android phone.

I'll give it a try. It is only on the very old ipad mini that I use as bedtime reading. Could be that I am past available Safari versions that this is now optimised for.
