Madelaine McMasters Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I see that "like" has become "reacted to". I've never considered myself a reactionary. Anybody else feeling disinclined to acquiesce to this new change? 3 1 2 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivanova Shostakovich Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 They've also made us less anonymous. Now those who don't have a forum photo will have their first initial shown instead. I want to see a post by someone with no photo, and with a symbol beginning their name. Or a number... that'll work too... maybe.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madelaine McMasters Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 When I roll over the "?" I get this... When I roll over those little boxes, I get no hover-text. I presume these boxes are supposed to be various reactions we can have. When I look at the reaction tally, I see this... I know who's reacted, but not what their reaction is. Apparently each of you three likes different size boxes. Ship the product when it's ready, LL. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhonda Huntress Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) The text is hard to read, but it is there.

Whirly Fizzle Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) The UI is a bit borked for me on Win 10, Firefox 54.0.1 (64-bit). Overlapping text & icon Reaction choices hard to read - black text on dark grey Missing icons & doubled reaction headings here: Missing icons in the Activity stream - but maybe that will fix when the indexing is complete. Even more broken in Edge browser. No names show against the reactions & missing icons. Yes, I'm logged in.

This sort of thing was asked for or suggested by users (at least one user). I don't remember exactly what was suggested but it was for more options than than just 'like', which often doesn't quite fit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those users asked for the thing LL is attempting to do, not what they've done so far. Perhaps Whirly is right and things will sort out when the indexing is complete. We'll see! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Deakins Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I like it. It might be better if there was one or two negative reactions as well - or maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm back to being able to edit, but other things are messed up. I noticed that the images I uploaded for one of my posts were appearing in several subsequent posts as well. I was temporarily unable to edit those posts to remove the images. There must be construction dust in the gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Editing is only for teh specially privileged. And so is sticky logins it seems. I have to log on every time even with the "remember me" checkbox checked and even when I've already logged on to the SL main site... 3 minutes ago, Lillith Hapmouche said: Multiple feedbacks look quite ugly on my end (Win 10 / Chrome / 1920x1200) If you think that is bad, scroll up to Rhonda's and Whirly's posts and see how it look on Firestorm.
