Hi @KajMagnus, I know that this is somewhat over the top at the moment. But I am wondering if you ever thought about merging different languages on one platform via automatic translation. DeepL does an amazing job ... unfortunatly the API is not avai...

This logic in Mailer.scala is broken: - val isTestAddress = emailToSend.sentTo.endsWith("example.com") || emailToSend.sentTo.endsWith("ex.com") || emailToSend.sentTo.endsWith("x.co")` This will mean emails won't be sent to a ton of domains, e....

I'm seeing more instances lately of drafts that shouldn't be there. I think the issue is that they were probably always incorrectly saved when actually they shouldn't have (since I had sent that message). But now that the drafts are more visual, it b...

The ability to answer to threads in the sequential "progress" format at the end is not working very well with our user base. I think it works well when people posting are mostly educated to use the forum but in our case it just causes a lot of confus...
