  • Add a user-dismissable version of the site announcement banner for less important announcements. Something like the “this site uses cookies” notices every website has now. Would be an appropriate use case for things like the naming polls we just ran.
     
  • Preview the first x characters of each comment in the notification screen. Maybe a user option.

I have a question, Why were the timings at which the statistics section on user profiles refresh altered?
 
I remember it used to refresh faster than this. I can’t seem to detect any consistency.
 
Believe it or not I’m asking for a friend. ;)

I use this site on my iPad a lot, and I think it would be a nice feature to press a small button, probably near the upvotes and such, where it can show a quick drop down of the image’s tags before I go further into the image page. I’m pretty sure you can hover over and see them on desktop, but I can’t do so on a mobile device such as this. I think it could be a slightly more user-friendly way to look over the tags and maybe add some to one’s watch/block list, even for users on PC who might want to get accustomed to it.

I’m not sure if it’s possible already, but can there please be a way to see how many people watch a tag? Would be very curious to see for instance, how many people follow an artist here, or a specific fetish/tag.

I think artist tag followers would be private information we wouldn’t share, but you can always ask a staff member how many followers generic tags have, if this never gets implemented.
 
I don’t mind checking, at any rate.

How about behaving like rarity, finger hooves, heterochromia, pink cloud (fo:e), ponies riding horses, post-apocalyptic, raider, tribal, trixie eating pinecones, winter swimsuit, and written equestrian? Also maybe oc:littlepip, oc:blackjack, oc:hired gun, and oc:puppysmiles (Okay, that’s entirely too many)

So I was a bit dumb and made a rather presumptuous feature suggestion in the ask-anything thread, so heres the crosspost. Sorry if its dumb or whatever.
 
So I take it that it’s not possible to search for pics made by a given artist plus at least one more artist? Well then, I’ll leave a suggestion for a site feature which probably was given in the past, but hey, at least it’s not “make field selectors for amount of tags of each category and of total tags” which you probably hear every day. Including this one.
Make it so that each search term between parentheses “captures” its match and the other search terms ignore that tag’s presence in that given pic.
For example:
– a search for (thanks), (obama) wouldn’t change, because it would resolve to thanks, obama;
(thanks), (tha*), however, instead of effectively ignoring the first term and return the same as just tha*, would return only the pics tagged with thanks and one or more other tags which satisfy tha*;
– I suppose that (tha*), (thanks), on the other hand, would be the same as tha*. Or maybe not. The priority is up to you, I’m just an innocent bystander;
– a litmus test for this functionality is that searching for obama, obama would return no results. Thanks, Obama!

And yeah that was entirely too many. You probably ruined it for everybody now, especially since we’re off-topic.

The count that’s shown on the profile under the “User Links” section is only visible to the user themselves. It’s not even visible to staff. Staff can see counts on another page, but not that one.

The reality is that tag watcher counts are not actually stored anywhere in the database, meaning that they have to be calculated each time. It’s not exactly a computationally “fast” process, relatively speaking. There’s also other reasons why they’re not visible to just everyone.

Just a fair warning - it’s not likely that there’s going to be many major features added to the site over the next few months.
 
It’s not really been announced formally (for some reason), but the site’s backend is being rewritten to gain some massive performance improvements. It doesn’t make a lot of sense to add new features to the old “Booru on Rails” code since that’s eventually being retired, while the focus on the new “Philomena” code is bringing it to feature parity before expanding it.

Wait the dev team is redoing the whole site in a new language?! Why wasn’t that announced? If nothing else, it’s kinda cool and I’m sure there’s interesting reasons for it.

Notoriously Divine Tagger - Consistently uploads images above and beyond the minimum tag requirements. And/or additionally, bringing over the original description from the source if the image has one. Does NOT apply to the uploader adding several to a dozen tags after originally uploading with minimum to bare tagging.

I miss the show so much

@Joey  
Wow.
 
I actually wanted one day to see the Booru On Rails’ source code, but looks like I never will :-(
 
Also, don’t you think that’s dangerous? The old code is tested and proven to work. The new code… it’s not. Rewriting working code in a new language (that I’m not even sure what it is called) is a known way to fail.
 
How come the old code is now, suddenly, too slow, when it has worked just fine for 8 years?
