to mobile bit talk users: please provide feedback about the ui!! i really want to make sure that mobile users have the same experience as desktop users
jeffalo is now the first user to have 2 pinned posts and i think this post i made caused this
interestingly, the prod and beta pages show the pins in a different order
quick thought i had about the wasteof api
since pinned
in a user’s post list is an array that usually only contains one thing (a user’s pinned post), what would happen if someone were to add something to that array by manually editing the database?
i’m specifically referring to this:
{"posts": [ regular post list, blah ], "pinned": [ this ]}
edit: if you want to see what im referring to in the actual wasteof api, you can go to api.wasteof.money/users/jeffalo/posts?page=999 to get the pinned post without all of jeffalo’s other posts

did i mention bit talk’s frontend is open source? its at https://replit.com/@8BitJake/bit-talk?v=1

the api has also been completely rewritten to use POST
requests!!
