Hexbear Proposals chapo.chat matrix room.

This will be a place for site proposals and discussion before implementation on the site.
Every proposal will also be mirrored into a pinned post on the hexbear community.

Any other ideas for helping to integrate the two spaces are welcome to be commented here or messaged to me directly.

Within Hexbear Proposals you can see the history of all site proposals and react to them, indicating a vote for or against a proposal.

Sending messages will be restricted to verified and active hexbear accounts older than 1 month with their matrix id in their hexbear user profile.

All top level messages within the channel must be a Proposals (idea for changing the site), Feedback (regarding non-technical aspects of the site, for technical please use https://hexbear.net/c/feedback), or Appeals (regarding admin/moderator actions).

Discussion regarding these will be within nested threads under the post.

To gain matrix verification, all you need to do is navigate to my hexbear userprofile and click the send a secure private message including your hexbear username.

for example when I type :cringe and it opens the menu for me to browse, it pulls up like 200 emotes most of which don't even have half of the word cringe in them, just way, way too many results so I couldn't find the ones actually tagged with the keyword. Am I doin something wrong?

Love the new system, thanks so much for the hard work! I think something in the searching algorithm is a bit loose? I don't know how to code in the slightest so idunno but something sure isn't right

The autofill popup definitely has some bugs especially on mobile and with so many more emotes all with their own tags in the system. Buuuuut, at least on desktop, typing :cringe is showing me things with exact title or tag matches first (the first 7 results) and then it descends into gibberish partial word/letter combo matches, which is annoying but I think expected?

If there is an issue, from what I've seen, its weird rendering on mobile, and possibly not starting scrolled to the top of the list, landing people in the middle of the gibberish results to start with instead. Does that line up with what you're seeing?

If anyone wants to look into it, we are using this library: https://github.com/zurb/tribute Calling it here: https://github.com/hexbear-collective/lemmy-ui/blob/1787a778f8cf01fb1b00262e44ae8e49f9b3ccc1/src/shared/markdown.ts#L335

Looks like we aren't setting a maximum for how many items it should load. I think it would be reasonable to do that.
