@manton I noticed a font change in the web version. Largish, Courier. It's not bad, especially for old eyes.
@cliffordbeshers That was actually a mistake and it should update to the other default font when it reloads... So, I guess if you like it, enjoy it until it updates. 🙂 Probably a preference for this in the future would be good.
@manton I do like the monospaced font, but don't like how I can't see the whole page's text without scrolling to the right.
@manton Hmm, good one! After posting, the post remains on screen. It would make sense to have an Edit button beside the Post button as that's the time I most commonly spot typos etc. 😀 Maybe it's the same for other folks too.
@cygnoir Should be fixed now. The monospace was actually a mistake. If the scrolling is still wrong for you, let me know which web browser. Thanks!
@numericcitizen I hear you, but as I've thought about this, I keep coming back to keeping categories hidden so that the post screen doesn't feel complicated. I think it will have to be a preference somewhere if we do it.
@manton I do not see the editor changed in any way. No spell check or grammarly. I have tried across browsers and platforms. What should I look for? Am I missing something?
@purisubzi @amit The changes are a little subtle if you aren't looking for them... The biggest change is on iOS where emoji now works. On macOS, cmd-; should work for spellcheck too. Dark Mode also looks much better.
@manton Thanks for the updates! All smooth here, and updating much faster to my blog when I post via the app. ⚡️
@manton The reply box! It's nice and small :D ... and responsive! Also on the web when I press tab it no longer makes spaces, instead it does as it should and navigates out of the editor... at least that feels closer to what it shold do but I might be wrong since I'm still a Mac baby lol
@manton Ok, thought so. I haven't tried on iOS -- but thought spellcheck on Mac didn't need a shortcut. So must have missed that. Will try it out. Thank you!
@cygnoir Sorry, I figured that would've resolved... I'm not seeing that here. Do you mind emailing me a screenshot of how it looks for you? Thanks for following up!
