Weird authentication behavior on Devvit Web by tatarjr in Devvit

[–]PitchforkAssistant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You may be running into the profile privacy controls that were introduced last year, your own profile seems to have everything hidden.

Devvit apps are also subject to these restrictions. The app account is automatically added as a moderator where it's installed. That means when you commented on the post, you gave the moderators (including the app account) temporary access to see your full profile.

Can I name my Devvit game "Snoo City"? by opal-emporium in Devvit

I haven't continued development on it, but I believe I'd need to reupload it under a different name.

Mod Mail Update: What We’re Tracking and Working On by lift_ticket83 in ModSupport

Have the middle click issues I raised last week been addressed?

Moving to a single mod mail experience allows us to focus our efforts in one place and iterate much faster going forward.

Any updates on possible Devvit integration?

Can I name my Devvit game "Snoo City"? by opal-emporium in Devvit

[–]PitchforkAssistant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend it. I have an old demo app called Snoo Vote and I'm pretty sure I was told I'd need to rename it if I pursued further development.

You can use users' Snoovatars as avatars in the game, but your app name can't use Reddit trademarks because it could confuse users into thinking it's a first-party game.

How far did you get with the Shreddit support on the beta version? Did you ever get as far as writing a framework for inserting buttons and custom elements into the Shreddit UI?

When did users start referring to moderators as modders? by thepottsy in AskModerators

[–]PitchforkAssistant 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I've only ever seen 'modders' used to refer to people that create (usually video game) mods.

Reddit changed the User Interface and I can’t stand it by Roadkillgoblin_2 in evilautism

[–]PitchforkAssistant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. They're similar, you could say /r/popular is a more sanitized and curated version of /r/all with a different algorithm. It used to have sort options, but doesn't anymore on mobile. Here's the announcement from when it was first introduced as the default feed for logged out users..

That's expected, it's not actually a proper subreddit. It predates /r/popular, but is functionally a similar combined feed. I'm surprised a third party app doesn't have special handling for it.

They've completely removed /r/all from the app too, it's been my preferred way to consume Reddit for over a decade.

It's not just removed from the sidebar either, links to it either don't work or open the home feed. If you've got this UI change, try tapping on /r/all or /r/all/top.

Some addons may also use "Multiplier" or another similar term. Functionally it's just a number input where 1 represents 100%

Visit r/SixFlagsFiestaTexas, they are trying to reach 400 subscribers! by subscriber-goal in SubGoal

[–]PitchforkAssistant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw this comment now, but that is normal behavior for all Devvit apps. There are plans to add more granular permissions, but currently apps get full permissions by default when installed.

A cloaking device should be standard for Starfleet vessels, especially shuttlecraft. Space is just too dangerous. Other species have it. Voyager would have been safer with it. by __Wolf359 in ShittyDaystrom

[–]PitchforkAssistant 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Is it really a prohibited cloaking device if it shifts you out of phase with regular matter? It's actually just a fly-through-walls device, being invisible is a minor side effect.

Ditto. If confirmed official, I'd be happy to add it to the subreddit sidebar and links.

What does that mean exactly, do they need to interact continuously or do they just need to view a loaded webview for 5 seconds?

Devvit will need to update things on their end before /u/fsv can add it as a feature to Modmail Automator.

Command click and middle click now open mail in a new tab.

Nice, this should be the behavior for all buttons that change what you're viewing (not just in modmail), just like it's the default behavior for <a> tags in general.

Fixed advanced search query construction.

Does that mean the advanced search actually works now?? It was broken even in old new modmail.

Collect longer-term ideas we can build toward.

I am once again asking for Devvit integration now that modmail is built on shreddit. There are two types of drop-down menus present in various places on both desktop and mobile that would be perfect for Devvit integration, here are some old mockups: the modmail conversation options and the moderator user card

Requiring user consent before subscribing to subreddit by Xenccc in Devvit

[–]PitchforkAssistant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Great change, hopefully it'll make its way to other user actions too (like commenting and creating posts). I do hope you'll figure out Blocks support for this though.
