- Initially, we did a bunch of forceful CSS to make the ad tile resize properly when the browser resizes. This was causing the EU ad to display incorrectly. Turns out, that css is no longer needed after the BEM-style re-write.
- Changed the floating ad selector to cover both EU and non-EU version. It's probably still not the best given it relies on style rather than ID, but the ID seems dynamic.
Closes 605 "Add pagination support to channel search"
## Previous Attempt
The previous attempt (69de63c4) didn't work because the wunderbar is part of the list component, so it is unmounted when we switch between the Normal and Filtered list, causing it to lose focus while typing.
Also, creating another full-blown ClaimList* component is really redundant (we should be consolidating instead).
## Approach
ClaimListDiscover recently added a new `subSection`, so we can place the filtered `ClaimList` here without causing the wunderbar to unmount.
Wrapped the "lighthouse search with channel_id" into `searchResults.jsx` for now as a quick and isolated solution. When we refactor ClaimList*, we can then consider incorporating into `doSearch`.
The tile placeholder method didn't work well because the component doesn't know how big the page size is, so we always end up rendering 1 placeholder tile, followed by N (= page size) placeholders (if not yet resolved). It's pretty ugly.
Removed comments:
- Incorrect/misleading: "injected item" does not mean "ads". It can be any React component that you want to put at a specific index.
- Redundant: don't explain the syntax. It's very annoying having to maintain the comment when the logic changes.
- Instead of 2 ways to display ads (DOM injection + React method) and having both of them clash, just do it the predictable React way.
- Augment the existing React version to support tile layout + ability to place in last visible slot.
- Consolidate styling code to scss ... DOM manipulations were making it even harder to maintain.
- Removed the need to check for ad-blockers for now. It was being executed every time an ad is displayed, and now that we are displaying ads in more places, the gains doesn't justify the performance loss. Also, it wasn't being done for Recommended ads anyway, so the inconsistency probably means it's not needed in the first place.
Other known issues fixed:
- double ad injection when changing language via nag.
- additional "total-blocking-time" due to ads at startup removed.
- fixed ads not appearing in mobile homepage until navigated away and back to homepage.
- enable ads in channel page.
- support for both List and Tile layout.
Since `triggerBlacklist` is just a simple boolean and `<Ads>` is not doing any additional logic on top of it, it doesn't make sense to pass as a parameter. Just not mount the component -- it's more concise and obvious at the client side.
Ticket: 1018
Reference: 2575c5d
- Restored position of the ad to the 4th slot.
- Moved repeated query out of the map predicate (`droppableProvided ?`)
- For draggables, make the injected item always on top for now. There are draggables with injected items at the moment.
## Cause
When 'selectRecommendedContentForUri' is filtering results against the blocklist, it relies on claim data which could be unresolved yet. It filters to empty results for this scenario, hence the flashing message.
## Change
Just return raw results when claims are not resolved yet, so that the GUI knows it needs to show the placeholders while resolving. After resolving, it'll go through the blocklist filtering again.
## Issue
Closes 1020 strange refresh on signup + youtube sync
It's due to the sync-on-focus.
## Change
Only show the spinner for the initial wallet sync. I thought we can do without the spinner for sync completely, but based on the comments below, better to retain that for the initial sync. I think the rest of the stages don't need to block over a sync call.
```
// Don't claim the reward if sync is enabled until after a sync has been completed successfully
// If we do it before, we could end up trying to sync a wallet with a non-zero balance which will fail to sync
```
This is a follow-up for #1016
Still doesn't affect anything at the moment, but this reduce the amount of work needed when we yank out the homepages from our bundle later.
Currently, homepages are still build as part of the app, so this change doesn't bring much benefit other than to support the wrapper app.
When the service is moved away from the app, we won't have to rebuild the app when homepages change, and also the ui.js bundle would be smaller without the need to code-split.
## Issues
Ad-filtering:
- Filtering was done whether or not ads are injected.
- Constants are repeatedly calculated.
- No short-circuiting in the for-loop.
- No memoization (being called 5-6 times on average due to redux updates, can't avoid that).
Others:
- Potentially passing null claimID to recsys (I think this is the issue that Johnny reported in Slack).
## Changes
- Moved 1-time calculations outside of the function.
- Optimized the filtering function and memoize it.
- Reduce unnecessary props since we are passing the whole `Claim` object already.
- Fix recsys being called when claim is not resolved yet (null claimId).
- Move away from the incorrect `makeSelect*` selectors.

Clients can still choose to roll their own way of showing "is fetching", like how ClaimListDiscover displays a whole bunch of placeholder tiles. This just serves as a default.
List-layout is not scrollable, and doesn't look good either. Force to tile-only until we can fix it. If we decide to always use tile-only, then remove the parameter for ScheduledStreams.
- `filteredSubscriptions` was running the filter code whether or not it actually required filtering, because the `!subscriptionFilter` logic is placed in the predicate. While it is a clean one-liner, it is slow when the subs list is huge.
- While at it, moved the code into `getSubscriptionSection` to isolate things.
- The sidebar was resolving the entire subs list, which is super slow for a list of 500+. Since we now have a "Manage Subscriptions" page, just batch-resolve the N visible subs.
- TODO: the code should probably be moved from 'app' to 'sideNavigate'.
The idea of using claim_search to indirectly batch-resolve didn't work out well. There's something wrong with the claim_search pagination where some results are duplicated in multiple pages, while some are missing. It's also returning less results that than the given number of claim ids, so sometimes the infinite scroll breaks.
The `useDualLayout` junk is super confusing to maintain and no longer extensible.
At the expense of making the "livestream + regular" list no longer seamlessly continuous when expanded (or when there just a handful of livestreams), use the new `subSection` feature to inject the livestream tiles. This is far easier to manage and tweak.
## Issues
1. We were manually adding `selectLanguage(state)` as a prop to components used in Settings Page to trigger a render. Flaws:
- Unclear that the unused prop is just to trigger a render.
- Manually adding on a case-by-case basis will break over time, especially when language can now be changed outside of the Settings Page.
2. The translation file fetching is delayed and also takes time, so the GUI will end up having mixed strings on F5, depending on when the fetch completed.
## Approach
Make the app wrapper have a key that's tied to the language and translation data, so the entire app renders when language changes. Seems like a common design in most apps.
## Ticket
921 language refresh / selection issues
## Ticket
968 Truncate views/subs in other areas
## Changes
- Corrected logic for `minThresholdToApply`, which was ignoring the case of "no threshold", causing it to not be truncated in Channel Page. We want to always truncate there due to the smaller cards.
- Missed out handling `ClaimPreviewSubtitle`.
The function argument order can be a bit ugly, but putting it at the back as optional param makes it easier to test without affecting existing clients.
## Ticket
948 wildwest: always show boosting message, move next to category name
## Changes
1. Make "Show less livestreams" share the same space as "Boosted by LBC", instead of only showing either 1.
- It's a bit troublesome to move it next to the filter without tweaking the generic `ClaimListDiscover`, so I think this would be a good compromise.
2. Fix "show less livestreams" being super tiny in mobile.
- I think it is caused by some component-specific changes are being applied at the global level (not sure).

> _Max date it can do is back to : 2022-02-08 - so don't allow a days value that's higher than this. (hint before selection / submission if possible)_
My initial understanding was that it is ok to set beyond this date (e.g. "1 year"), just that any channels created before Feb 7 will still be able to comment even if they are less than a year old. That feels like ok behavior to me (easier for user to grasp), but turns out setting anything before that date will block all channels.
So, this commit changes the warning message and also blocks the user from finalizing.
This reverts commit b3c4ce05fa.
The suggested 2-list approach broke the search bar because the bar is part of the list, so it gets unmounted while the user is typing. Oops.

- Move into getLocalStorageSummary to clean up the clutter.
- Always log the localStorage info to get a bigger picture of what's going on with the QuotaExceededError.
* Remove 'findPreviousUploads' - we use the url stored in Redux.
Something I forgot to remove in the past. It also reads from localStorage, so remove since we are trying to avoid touching localStorage.
* Ensure localStorage is not used when uploading
I don't think it's being written when `storeFingerprintForResuming` is disabled, but doing the suggestion nonetheless.

## Ticket
lbry-desktop 6841
## Issue
If you are already at the homepage and you click the "Home" or "Odysee" logo again, the entire page reloads, causing the whole startup sequence to re-run (lots of fetches).
This can be annoying when not intended (e.g. clicked too many times), as startup is slow for some and we also lose non-persistent Redux data (for debugging).
I believe the requirement was just to reload the homepage tiles, as they might be showing stale ones after a while. A full reload was the quick-and-easy fix.
## Approach
Best not to touch the complicated `ClaimTilesDiscover`, so just clear the search cache key in this scenario. `ClaimTilesDiscover` will then pick this up and perform a new `claim_search`.
## Root-cause?
It doesn't happen on the commit before the Theme change. However, it's possible that the y-pos is reset since we are indeed unmounting the dual list and re-mounting the single list.
Maybe the css got more efficient and we ended up painting more frames than before.
## Fix
Fix by stashing and restoring the the y-position during the expansion.
## Issue
535
## Change
- Header: Use the "channel list undefined" instead of "active channel url undefined" to determine if the button should be "pending".
- App: restore the use of `activeChannelClaim` instead of `activeChannelId`. In the existing design, the latter is never cleared is some situations, so the former is more accurate as it takes the current channel list into account. We might want to hide (not export) `activeChannelId` to avoid this mis-use again.
## Issue
When loading the homepage, I kept seeing a blank page with footer first. Even Google is picking it up.
## Ticket
572 Slow appearance of tiles
## Notes
The tiles were originally delayed to prevent the "Upcoming Livestream" section from causing layout shifts.
With the new theme, the footer would cause a visible shift anyway. Hiding the footer is one solution, but I think not showing anything until the fetch is done is bad because the livestream fetch could stall.
## Why
The playing URI was being cleared every time we leave the File Page, I believe to prevent the floating from continue playing outside of the File Page.
## Approach
Close FileRenderMobile by checking playingUri/primaryURI instead.
For the case of livestreams, just display it.
These are now checked at client side (not CDN side), so not actually an error worth collecting.
Also removed "Uploading the same file from multiple tabs or windows is not allowed." -- no longer exists.
## Issue
534 prevent new channel creation over x channels
## Notes
Also handled from the API call (`doCreateChannel`) in case there are other UI components that create channels.
- Marked optional props properly.
- Re-ordered to make it easier to differentiate "props used in jsx" vs. "from redux".
Separated the commit to make the upcoming diffs easier to read.
Code-splits the module into "dnd.js", reducing the ui.js bundle size. This module is only needed when viewing lists.
## Room for improvement
`ClaimList` can probably improve further by only using the dnd components in "edit" mode.
## Implementation notes
- The modules are not default exports, so the additional chaining to `React.lazy` was required.
- Experimenting with using an Object to store the import so that a single "prettier-ignore" can be used to make it not wrap.
- The FlowFixMe came from the original code. It is unclear why it is needed to resolve the module, but Haffa mentioned it's something related to .flowconfig.
## Ticket
852 Markdown inline images in comments don't work for any channel level
## Change
The prior commit simplified the props from individual comment fields to just 1 `Comment` object, but there was a typo in the parameter where it should be `channel_url` instead of `author_uri`.
- The previous 2MB was a CDN limit (more of a mistake). That has been increased to a far greater number, so we're setting a more reasonable 5MB limit.
- The previous code checks/shows the "size exceeded" message after the file has been uploaded ... in the `catch` block. This will not work since the CDN now allows a 5MB file.
- Fixed by checking the size before actually uploading.
## Issue
When pressing "Done", it will call the upload function, which usually results in a "please select a file" error, or the file being uploaded if a file was selected prior to switching to "Use Url".
