Would you be able to write a script that is able to save and retrieve the last visited page number, opens the WO thread, passing the information to the URL and opens the thread on the page where you left it last time?
IDK exact ways, but in theory, if the browser is able to inject scripts (developer mode), you could easily refresh a bookmark on every page load and then just call that bookmark from the script that runs after clicking the according stream deck button.
Would be nice. The "Show new replies" seems to not cooperate well with how browsers will reload the page sometimes when a computer is rewoken from sleep. I have taken to clicking on the last-post-I viewed's title which refreshes the page with new stuff but keeps me where I left off.
Alright. I am always just refreshing the page (tab) which i kept open in my browser. Well, mostly always. You might want to know that i have hundreds of tabs opened (and restored on restart) in my browser. Don't shoot me, but that's about the general way i tend to organise things. Visible. A bookmark in a menu is saved and forgotten most of the time for months, if not years, and there are multiple bookmarks in my bookmark bar's folder hierarchy, which i created because of needs, not because of cognition.
And yes, this is my ASD, mixed with "mild" ADD. I don't even want to roughly average how many times i edit a message, also before even posting the initial version, until i am "satisfied" with the contents, and most times i'm still not, but i learned to swallow it and just get off editing at some point, or even delete it all. Eventually, i'll try to start over later. Shorter messages tend to work mostly well, though, while re-reading my own post(s) is triggering my "need of editing" too easily. This time it was about four or five times? FML, but i got used to it and i dearly love this life, well - the majority of the time.
I felt like it was time to let y'all know, anyway. Maybe it makes some of you easier to handle the (maybe interesting) OT rubbish i post to the WO every now and then - or more often, sometimes - which i would have been locked out of almost any thread/forum with more strict rules or even kicked off boards for, like it happened on other boards in the past.
(*FINAL EDIT: I looked inside the browsing history, and it revealed that i had edited the post six times. I already forgot what i wanted to edit/add this time, so i force myself to stop re-reading it and let it as it is, slightly compulsively thinking of the delete button)
*EDIT 7: I remembered now, just wanted to add that this isn't the result of some "ASD by internet" tests. I got extensively and officially late-diagnosed by professionals, a few months from two years ago now. It's a real thing and it took me about a year to fully grasp and integrate it.
Back to the point: refreshing works with stored tabs, even if you "like" broswing many opened tabs, but there are naturally some complaints for security reasons by keeping tabs open. In my case, my password strength is the only protection.
Lagging issues? Every.single.time.
I used to think it was only when I posted images but I rarely, if ever, notice a difference now. It's not just a lag, the forum doesn't properly refresh more often than not and I end up closing the window and opening a new one. I mostly use the Brave browser.
Ok, so refreshing an restoring doesn't have to work for every browser, then.
I'm using a standard-type browser, though not one of the Windoze preinstalled ones.
