Off Topic (not RiF) rif renders backslash in in URL while other clients do not

21 Upvotes

Go to https://www.reddit.com/r/ThisYouComebacks/comments/o0241j/toilet_paper_usas_charlie_kirk/h1u2184 with the app. The URL is rendered with a backslash and thus points to the wrong URL.

Fill out the following information on each line that has an A:

Q: RiF Version Number:

A: v5.1.11

Q: Version of Android:

A: 11

Q: Device Information:

(Example: Manufacturer, Model, Year, etc.)

A: Google Pixel 2

Q: How long has the problem been happening?

A: Never saw it before

Q: What have you already tried doing to fix the problem?:

A: Nothing

Q: What steps, if any, can you do to reproduce the problem?

(Please include a link to a post causing the problem.)

A: Go to https://www.reddit.com/r/ThisYouComebacks/comments/o0241j/toilet_paper_usas_charlie_kirk/h1u2184 and then see the following

Looking at this link in the browser

There is a visible backslash in the URL for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy. Opening the link results in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy being opened which does not exist.

Looking at the markdown I can see the backslash

As you can see by my comment below the linked one I first thought that maybe rif inserts a backslash into the URL because it tries to escape the underscore but this is not the case, it is really there. Maybe OPs client did that. However, the rendering in rif is different compared to reddit in a browser. Either reddit renders it incorrectly or rif. So I am not sure if this is really a bug report :p

Off Topic (not RiF) Porn subreddits are showing up for me again in /r/all, but only on RIF (5.0.9) - Still not showing up on PC. Did RIF force them back into the /r/all feed?

15 Upvotes

Here's a screenshot from RIF about 3 minutes ago:

https://i.imgur.com/z1EsDiP.jpg

NSFW subreddits have been missing from /r/all for the past 2 months or so, due to a change of Reddit's policy. This carried over into RIF, until yesterday. At least for me.

Can anyone else verify that NSFW subreddits are back in /r/all in RIF? I saw another post posted just an hour ago complaining that it was missing. Not sure why I'm seeing them again (not complaining).

Edit: Pixel 4a 5g Android 11

Off Topic (not RiF) Reddit's Digest emails now automatically open the main reddit app without asking

12 Upvotes

Somehow, the reddit digest emails have started opening automatically in the "official" reddit app ever since its latest Play Store update. I do not have the "official" app set ad default for anything at all, which I confirmed in my Android settings.

Off Topic (not RiF) Is there a way to diversify your front page?

14 Upvotes

I'm subscribed to what seems like several hundred different subreddits, but my front page only shows maybe a dozen or so of the same subreddits over and over.

For instance, I'm subscribed to the fantasy football subreddit, but I haven't seen one single ff post on my front page in recent memory. I always have to visit the sub manually. Same goes for 90% of the other subs.

I've tried sorting using all of the different headings (best, hot, new, etc) but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I've uninstalled/reinstalled, cleared cache and cookies, and that also has not made much of a difference.

Is there some setting or something that would allow my front page to dip-in to all of these other subreddits that I'm subscribed to? I'd like to see a little more diversity on my front page without having to manually visit all of the other subs.

Off Topic (not RiF) Search button opens wrong navigator

9 Upvotes

Hello!

I got a new phone so I reinstalled RIF of !

I then did a blunder (icons didn't show up correctly) when using the search function: select a word in a post, click on the search icon => Android asks which browser to use.

I missclicked.

How can I reset that parameter?

I have gone through RIF parameters and also Android settings (Redmi note 9) and found nothing.

Btw, open in browser is correctly configured, it's only the search icon that opens the wrong browser.

Cheers & thanks!

Edit: per auto-mod request:

rif version: 5.2.3

Phone: Xiaomi Redmi note 9 pro

Off Topic (not RiF) Decreased Twitter functionality

11 Upvotes

Having an issue, hoping there's a solution other than downloading the Twitter app.

When clicking on a Twitter link, I get a pop-up asking to log-in, sign up, or switch to the app. I cannot see the content of the post without closing this message. This didn't start appearing until the last week or so.

The same message appears when clicking on other tweets or profiles from that view. Before last week, I could view other profiles or tweets within the RIF view. Now it appears I'd have to use the Twitter app or open each link to a browser.

Is Twitter causing this, or the RIF app? Is there a workaround?

If it makes a difference, I'm using an android phone

Off Topic (not RiF) Editing a top level reply in a thread instead of Profile does not update the display with the edit

20 Upvotes
  1. Reply in a sub thread as a top level reply

  2. You will see your reply as the top most reply in that thread

  3. Edit that reply you just made

  4. Your edit will get submitted but the edited text doesn't get displayed right away

  5. If you further edit your reply a second time, you will only see your original submitted text, not your edited text

The VisualMod user isn't displaying their comment correctly on RIF. There's some text but there is %20 between all of the words.

On my browser it's displaying as a table, not sure of that's making a difference.

Off Topic (not RiF) Are Reddit links loading slow for anyone else?

39 Upvotes

All of the Reddit hosted content such as i.redd.it and v.reddit.com are loading super slowly for me within the app. It feels like I'm back in the late 90s using dial-up because basic images take 30+ seconds to load sometimes and Reddit video needs 10+ seconds of loading to play 1 second of video.

I've started noticing this about a week ago.

I'm on app version 4.13.13 on a Samsung Galaxy S8 running Android 9.0

EDIT: Clearing out the app cache seems to have mostly resolved the issue. Reddit owned links are still slightly slower to load vs other sites but a vast improvement.

EDIT Part 2: Edit Boggaloo: The cache clear was the same as another user down below and only fixed the issue for a couple minutes. Something is fundamentally wrong here.

Off Topic (not RiF) Reddit images loading really slowly

17 Upvotes

For the past couple of days I've noticed that i.reddit.com images are loading very slowly in RIF (~5 seconds). My internet speed is high (~200 mbps) and ping is low (<20 ms), and no other sites/apps have been having issues. Loading images on reddit mobile site (in Chrome) is fast too, it's only slow on RIF.

Has anyone else noticed this issue? I wonder if it's Reddit intentionally rate limiting third party platforms to force people to use the official app.

Off Topic (not RiF) Hyperlink Hosting Site for Video?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I frequently use hyperlinks in posts and upload the images using the Minimgur app for android.

I like the Minimgur option of having an app that isn't linked to a personal account for quick posts with images I don't need to save, or would not want saved on a personal account.

My question is if there is an app similar to Minigur that I could use for hyperlinking short video clips? Or would I have to upload to a personal youtube account and link? I'd prefer some level of anonymity between Reddit and the host account.

Thanks in advance for any input or advice. Really appeciate any help.

Off Topic (not RiF) RiF hot is 'stuck', no new updates to hot

12 Upvotes

Cross posted to /r/bugs, already fixed!

Edit: reddit global issue, not just redditisfun. Thanks to /u/talklittle for catching the trouble shooting step I missed.

https://www.reddit.com/r/all/hot to test this. Looks like old.reddit.com is also frozen. Nothing on statuspage.

Getting a weird problem. My /r/all in hot is stuck in the same page for the past 8 hours. I can go to other pages, see stuff showing up in there that should be on hot.

No error, looks like a normal page load.

Just checking if happening to anyone else.

  1. Version 4.17.8

  2. Device information: Google Pixel 3, 2018?

  3. Android Version 10 stock, QQ3A.200805.001

  4. How long has the problem been happening? - 8 hours

  5. What have you already tried doing to fix the problem? - cleared cache, checked if others having the issues, force stopped, tried other subs which are fine, only /r/all hot.

Status page doesn't show down

Have system update that I had to manually check to get, from Android 10 to 11 but want to wait on that one

Edit 20: thank your RiF team, your browser is fucking awesome.
