Loforo Suggestions

@blog @loforo

I had some ideas for features that might be considered for implementation on Loforo

1. Some posts can be very long and it can be a chore to scroll past them when on the main page. I dont think it's a problem now (I've only seen a few so far) but perhaps it's worth looking into. Some websites hide the rest of the post after a fixed height and to see the rest you need to click some 'see more' banner at the bottom of the post. Something to think about. 

2. Blocking currently works so that only direct posts are hidden. I think it makes sense to also hide any repost that was originally posted by the blocked user. Otherwise the hiding posts part of the blocking system is negated if the user is popular enough (gets reposted a lot) Read More »

Inserting paragraph after image and bugs related to it

Trying to insert paragraph after image is a very problematic. Cursor must be moved after it which is not possible in normal ways. The image must be selected, paragraph before it must be inserted and undone, only then image could be moved to the place after it. The next inserted element appears incorrect as it includes a class that should not be there. Using Mozilla Firefox ESR 102. The related behavior is shown in the gif below.

A Year of Loforo

Loforo went live a little over a year ago and we've had some pretty explosive growth thanks to you all.
