I don't like the new design, i think it's ASS (゚血゚#) Or rather, sore for the eyes
At least let "Heyuri classic" be actual Heyuri classic pls

The quick reply box is kind of lame too. Using the big reply box at the top of the page was one of those Heyuri-distinctive things that only now that it's gone i realize is part of our identity :cry:

And while i'm firmly atop of my soap box, let's resurrect the netiquette page. Oh, and no more boards :nyaoo-closedeyes:

>I don't like the new design, i think it's ASS (゚血゚#)
I SHALL HAS U KNOW that Sakomoto is teh original Heyuri design as used on our original Sakomoto software, which was (previously very poorly) ported over to our later software! "Heyuri Classic" is actually the newer one! and the latter totally sucked ballz (until now) cuz it used to use a retarded site-hosted MacOS font that had been converted to TTF and generally looked like shit despite being a totally generic sans-serif font - now it at least has a sensible font-family that uses your system's own fonts!

Just disable quick reply in the settings. BTW, this is a feature we had from the start, and it was only disabled because "somebody" b0rk'd it a few years ago and never fixed it

>let's resurrect the netiquette page
Let's not... but we should probably add moar stuff to teh FAQ

I actually find the older Heyuri design better on smartphones somehow

There's a lot of room for improvement with the quick reply box, but JS is hard to make compatible with everything else.

>we should probably add moar stuff to teh FAQ
The FAQ is quite outdated (I didn't rly touch since I became the admin), there's a lot to change there... It's a work that's being stalled for years now :nyaoo-closedeyes:

>I actually find the older Heyuri design better on smartphones somehow
Old design was better at emulating the desktop experience but that's not what u expect by default (and you can always request desktop view). Stuff like unwanted margins are removed now
But feel free to share what exactly you think used to be better on smartphones b4 the change

When overhauling teh HTML/CSS, I was primarily testing on PC, but also frequently testing on phone and tablet along the way (and occasionally other things liek terminal browsers, Raspberry Pi, and Windows XP too - I would have tested on TV as well if I had access to one that's less than 10 years old!). The same cannot be said for anyone who previously touched kokonotsuba - sans things that were changed at my suggestion :sweat2:

I'll be the first to admit it's not yet perfect (10"+ tablet in particular is still kinda awkward), but I strongly believe that a well-designed site should look good on any display without ghey compromises or an entirely different UI. A site that works poorly at various resolutions just has shitty HTML/CSS!

Making a site worse/unusable for mobile displays (either through neglect or active countermeasures) is just plain dumb - it doesn't keep out crappy users or bad actors, nor does it ever truly prevent mobile users from accessing the site (desktop view and user-agent spoofing exist). In the worst cases, it backfires entirely and prevents users with lo-res PC monitors from accessing the site (*cough* mootxico *cough)

All it really serves to do is limit the number of users frequenting a site, which is antithetical to Heyuri's various goals and purposes:
1. be the place to be
2. attract hawt girls
3. TOTAL INTERNET DOMINATION!!!1
