Couldn't we be free at least  here from any american politics? I'm pretty sure most of us aren't from the US anyway. It's supposed to be a safe space. A form of escapism. Stop shoving such things down our throats FOR FUCK'S SAKE. Or at least stop hijacking the whole site with that. We don't need that here. 

If you want to make any personal statement regarding those elections on your official profile, so be it. But don't force it upon us. You can't even see the recent posts, because that covered it all.

But having no style override for them is even worse :\ Since such posts started appearing  I had to create a style override so the site would work again. Below is stylus rule exported to mozilla format, use an import function in the extension if you want to use it.

@-moz-document domain("loforo.com") {
div.media.pic > img {
    object-position: unset !important;
    max-width: 100% !important;
    height: auto !important;
    position: unset !important;
    top: unset !important;
    left: unset !important;
    object-fit: unset !important;
    transition-duration: unset !important;
    transition-timing-function: unset !important; Read More »

Is gone from all posts, every post is now appearing like it was an original post w/o an attribution to an original poster included in it. Not so recently ago it was still working fine when suddenly it stopped doing that. Not sure if this is a bug but if it is it is a very big one.

Some times when using loforo (e.g. scrolling) it suddently stops connecting. Mostly happen when using VPN server hosted in same country (Lithuania) that I'm connecting from. Images and next page loads slower than usual and some times it does not connect at all. Very anoying. Happens multiple times for at least a few days. Not sure what is the cause. Speed test on vpn shows it's ~100 on both up and down Mbps

Edit: It does not appear to be a big slowdown compared to direct connection, as I've tested on a new browser profile, though page load speed decreases on later pages, probably due to browser lag. Read More »

Suddently the everyone feed just stopped working. Only nsfw feed has posts, including those that aren't nsfw.

I see that there are a few new link farm bots posting spam here in loforo. They are annoying. They usually make text posts with a links to external sites including some with domains names repeating multiple times. They rarely post original content w/o including overly long text walls and external links, such content looks too much like spam to me.

Some posts on loforo appears incorrect. There are styles makes them appear incorrect and loforo does not strip such styles. This makes the ui potentially unusable and/or very annoying to the users who might see those posts. For example there posts that anchor to the top of the page and also take all screen space where it might be impossible to interact with other posts nearby when they are present. Using latest version of Mozilla Firefox on Linux.

Workaround for Firefox users: Add a css to override some styles to userContent.css (located in chrome folder of your Firefox profile), e.g. add something similar to one shown below, also make sure firefox preference Read More »

If a certain bugged post would show on on timeline no further posts would load and it would also break infinite scroll as shown in screenshot below where next page navigation is also broken.

All addons are disabled, using latest Mozilla Firefox version on Linux

To upload random file from current working directory on Linux use a command similar to shown below, also do not forget to quote html as not doing so might cause bugs and this is just an example:

mkdir -p uploaded
FILE=$(find *.* -type f | shuf -n 1); curl -F 'key=<your api key>' -F "media=@$FILE" -F 'content="<p>some html here</p>"' https://loforo.com/api/post/create; mv -v $FILE uploaded

You can copy files you want to upload to a temporary directory by using a command below as example and run above command from there:

for arg in {1..10}; do FILE="$(find -type f|shuf -n 1|cut -d\/ -f2-)"; cp -v --backup=numbered "$FILE" /path/to/tmp/dir/; done Read More »

The image upload example shown below (w/o space added before MyTestPicture so it would not be auto-linked),

curl -d 'key=<your key>' -F 'media=@ MyTestPicture.jpg' -d 'content=<p>A picture is attached to this post</p>' https://loforo.com/api/post/create

also included in api description page does not work, curl fails with messages shown below and no request is sent.

Warning: You can only select one HTTP request method! You asked for both POST 
Warning: (-d, --data) and multipart formpost (-F, --form).

Use this instead (change -d to -F where needed, remove space before MyTestPicture, don't forget to quote html): Read More »

A blog page of a group I'm in is set to private. This group is visible in group list and has not disappeared from there. The group is for content that is popular on the internet everywhere but the owner set it to private. This is annoying and should never be done for such groups. At least the page should disappear from the group list and the members should to be removed from it in such cases.

It does not fit the width of the mobile browser viewport (Mozilla Firefox Beta 118). To view everything the browser must be zoomed out.
