Outage Forum upgrade Sunday 3rd Feb

[Edge]

We'll be offline tomorrow afternoon while we perform a large update.

New features will include:-

• Push notifications - alerts for new replies to watched threads, quotes & mentions. Won't work on Apple devices though (Apples fault)
• Reactions - Taking post likes to a new level. Dislikes can also be given, but we're not allowing negative scores
• URL unfurling - previews of links posted
• Improved emojis
• Easier video uploading
• Bookmarks - save your favourite threads!

I think we're done.

If you want notifications to your desktop or non-Apple device there will be a pop-up at the bottom of the page

If you want to test the new features out then the playground area is an ideal testing place.

One other new feature I forgot to mention - inline spoilers - click the blurred bit -Now you see it.... and click again to hide.
It's available from the Insert drop-down options - between the smilie & camera icons.
