There's another when creating sales threads too:


There's also a few non-cat related easter eggs hidden around now too.

Here's some of the recent updates:
  • Added toggle to view only unread items in Latest->Posts
  • Latest -> "Followed members" now actually shows a news feed of what the members you follow are up to. The appearance of feed items will be improved further moving forward.
  • Manually refreshing Latest -> Posts now displays fresh results (though some browsers, like Chrome + iOS, are still being funny about it).
  • Grouped together image attachments within quotes so quotes aren't so tall.

Some new updates:
  • Removed "reactions" updates from main feed and Followed feed (members you follow). OF is large enough that they were contributing a lot of spammy clutter to feeds and making them less useful.
  • A bunch of single word replies to posts like "bump" will be filtered out from updates in those places too.
  • Followed Feed (updates from members you follow) now has an improved layout showing who you're following.
  • Streamlining and modernizing the content of these feeds so they're more useful and easier to skim through.

You guys really built a great platform, or whatever this is. I was talking with a few members recently through PM and it hit me how easy it is to connect and how the tool is almost transparent. It fades into the background and we're able to just talk in real time, as well as go about our business and pick up where we left off. And you guys made this. Pretty remarkable.

A sunrise picture for you...

...and back to my coffee and the 'Latest'.

Indeed, I appreciate the ease of use and general aesthetics more and more. Thanks creators and mods!

Thanks! really appreciate the kind words.

Just finishing my second. This is a popular Australian recipe called a "magic". A ristretto shot and less milk. Like a more intense flat white. Cup is quite small. Cheers
