## Issue
`makeSelectDataForUri` always returns a new reference, so `ClaimPreview` was constantly being rendered. It's pretty expensive since `ClaimPreview`'s rendering checks against a huge blocklist, which is another issue on it's own.
## Changes
- This commit tests the usage of `re-reselect` as the solution to the multi-instance memoization problem (https://github.com/toomuchdesign/re-reselect/blob/master/examples/1-join-selectors.md)
## Issue
When comments are refreshed, each `Comment` gets rendered 4-5 times due to reference invalidation for `othersReacts` (the data didn't actually change).
## Change
For selectors without transformation, there is no need to memoize using `createSelector` -- just access it directly. Also, don't do things like `return a[id] || {}` in a reducer, because the reference to the empty object will be different on each call.
Always return directly from the state so that the same reference is returned.
This simple change avoided the wasted resources needed for `createSelector`, and reduced to render to just 2 (initial render, and when reactions are fetched).
## Issue
Components render unnecessarily due to reference invalidation from `selectMutedChannels` selector.
## Notes
`selectMutedChannels` run and return a new reference each time the app gains focus. `createSelector` will not help in this case, because we are indeed invalidating the data in the store in `USER_STATE_POPULATE`.
## Changes
- Don't update the state if the array is identical in content.
- Fixed `selectMutedChannels` to return the reference from the store, so `createSelector` is not needed.
- Also, the filtering is not needed because we've already done it in the reducer.
## Comments
I've done some profiling on large blocklists. The time needed for the array comparison is still an order magnitude lower than the time needed to render all the Components that got incorrectly marked by this.
The ideal solution is for the sync code to return a hash or timestamp of the array, so that we can compare that instead of the array.

Impetus: allow linked comment ID and setting the discussion tab when clicking on the `ClaimPreview`.
* comment.list: fix typos and renamed variables
- Switch from 'author' to 'creator' to disambiguate between comment author and content author. For comment author, we'll use 'commenter' from now on.
- Corrected 'commenterClaimId' to 'creatorClaimId' (just a typo, no functional change).
* doCommentReset: change param from uri to claimId
This reduces one lookup as clients will always have the claimID ready, but might not have the full URI.
It was using URI previously just to match the other APIs.
* Add doCommentListOwn -- command to fetch own comments
Since the redux slice is set up based on content or channel ID (for Channel Discussion page), re-use the channel ID for the case of "own comments". We always clear each ID when fetching page-0, so no worries of conflict when actually browsing the Channel Discussion page.
* Comment: add option to hide the actions section
* Implement own-comments page
* Use new param to remove sort-pins-first.
comment.List currently always pushes pins to the top to support pagination. This new param removes this behavior.
I think this the best solution so far, at the expense of a slight delay in scrolling if the network call stalls.
- Added "fetching by ID" state so that we don't need to use the ugly N-retries method.
- `scrollIntoView` doesn't work if the element is already in the viewport, and the `scrollBy` adjustment doesn't take into account the y-position restoration that we perform on certain type of pages. Use `window.scrollTo` instead and taking into account current scroll position.
## Issue
.../archives/C02FQBM00Q0/p1633044695010600
## Changes
When querying a search key, it has to be an exact match. This was broken by the insertion of `free_only` in the fetch.
Added a function to generate the options, so that all clients stay in sync.
It was being recalculated repeatedly.
This memoizes it, although it still re-calculates occasionally despite none of the source arrays changed. I think it is due to the state change in the Preference Sync.
Note: input selectors to `createSelector` needs to be extractions-only (i.e. must not have transformations). I think most of our `makeSelect*` selectors violate this and broke memoization.
* ❌ Remove old method of displaying active livestreams
Completely remove it for now to make the commit deltas clearer.
We'll replace it with the new method at the end.
* Fetch and store active-livestream info in redux
* Tiles can now query active-livestream state from redux instead of getting from parent.
* ⏪ ClaimTilesDiscover: revert and cleanup
## Simplify
- Simplify to just `uris` instead of having multiple arrays (`uris`, `modifiedUris`, `prevUris`)
- The `prevUris` is for CLS prevention. With this removal, the CLS issue is back, but we'll handle it differently later.
- Temporarily disable the view-count fetching. Code is left there so that I don't forget.
## Fix
- `shouldPerformSearch` was never true when `prefixUris` is present. Corrected the logic.
- Aside: prefix and pin is so similar in function. Hm ....
* ClaimTilesDiscover: factor out options
## Change
Move the `option` code outside and passed in as a pre-calculated prop.
## Reason
To skip rendering while waiting for `claim_search`, we need to add `React.memo(areEqual)`. However, the flag that determines if we are fetching `claim_search` (fetchingClaimSearchByQuery[]) depends on the derived options as the key.
Instead of calculating `options` twice, we moved it to the props so both sides can use it.
It also makes the component a bit more readable.
The downside is that the prop-passing might not be clear.
* ClaimTilesDiscover: reduce ~17 renders at startup to just 2.
* ClaimTilesDiscover: fill with placeholder while waiting for claim_search
## Issue
Livestream claims are fetched seperately, so they might already exists. While claim_search is running, the list only consists of livestreams (collapsed).
## Fix
Fill up the space with placeholders to prevent layout shift.
* Add 'useFetchViewCount' to handle fetching from lists
This effect also stashes fetched uris, so that we won't re-fetch the same uris during the same instance (e.g. during infinite scroll).
* ⏪ ClaimListDiscover: revert and cleanup
## Revert
- Removed the 'finalUris' stuff that was meant to "pause" visual changes when fetching. I think it'll be cleaner to use React.memo to achieve that.
## Alterations
- Added `renderUri` to make it clear which array that this component will render.
- Re-do the way we fetch view counts now that 'finalUris' is gone. Not the best method, but at least correct for now.
* ClaimListDiscover: add prefixUris, similar to ClaimTilesDiscover
This will be initially used to append livestreams at the top.
* ✅ Re-enable active livestream tiles using the new method
* doFetchActiveLivestreams: add interval check
- Added a default minimum of 5 minutes between fetches. Clients can bypass this through `forceFetch` if needed.
* doFetchActiveLivestreams: add option check
We'll need to support different 'orderBy', so adding an "options check" when determining if we just made the same fetch.
* WildWest: limit livestream tiles + add ability to show more
Most likely this behavior will change in the future, so we'll leave `ClaimListDiscover` untouched and handle the logic at the page level.
This solution uses 2 `ClaimListDiscover` -- if the reduced livestream list is visible, it handles the header; else the normal list handles the header.
* Use better tile-count on larger screens.
Used the same method as how the homepage does it.
## Issue
Closes 7121 Missing mod block option (large number of moderated channels?)
## Notes
It was bad to assume `channelSignatures` would be the same length as the promise result -- any failure in signing would cause a misalignment.
For my case, an accidentally-merged channel couldn't be signed due to a missing private key. I think it's the same for Drew.

## Issue
7003 Can't unblock if delegator deleted their channel
## Changes
- Changed the function parameter from 'creatorId' to 'creatorUri'
- It got short-circuited because we don't resolve deleted channels. But the client already have the full creator URI (containing the needed 'name' and 'id'), so there is no need to actually look at the resolved list -- just pass the uri like all the other functions.
## Preamble
- The app-side uses a cached blocklist, so when a Timeout expires, it doesn't know that the ban has been lifted.
- Meanwhile, we are doing extra comment filtering using this blocklist (so that we don't see comments that we have blocked, regardless of whose claim we are viewing).
## Issue
In a livestream, if a new message from an ex-offender comes in after their ban has been lifted, we do get the websocket message but it's being filtered out locally as mentioned above. So, the msg ended up being visible for everyone except the owner.
## Fix (band aid)
- Don't run the extra filter if the claim we are viewing is ours -- commentron would have filtered it for us anyways, and is the right logic to use even before this Timeout feature is introduced.
- For the case of Timeout, this only serves as a band-aid until Commentron Issue 80 is available for us to detect the ban has been lifted. This is because it doesn't handle the case where I am a viewer and I decided to timeout someone for a few minutes. Because I am not the owner of the claim, the offender will continue to be blocked due to the same issue mentioned above.
## Issue
6712 Comment Moderation - time based bans
## Approach
- Consolidated the 3 types of blocking buttons in the comment content menu (i.e. Block, Moderator Block, Admin Block) into 1 regular Block button.
- Show a modal when Block is clicked.
- Let user choose the blocklist.
- Let user choose the timeout duration (this PR's impetus).

Previously, we decide when to display "Show More" based on the current fetched reply count vs. total replies in Commentron. It was already troublesome as `comment.List` and `comment.replies` give different values (one includes blocked content, while another does not).
Now, we are further filtering the list with Commentron blocklists (personal, admin, moderator), so it is not feasible to run the logic based on reply count.
## Solution
- Keep track of number of remaining pages instead and use that to determine when to display "Show More".
- While it doesn't solve the "Show N replies" mismatch (YT has this problem too), it prevents the button from lingering.
- In the event that all replies are blocked, just show an empty space (same as YT). I didn't like the previous version that cluttered the space with "comment(s) blocked".
## Issue
When you block Channel-X, Channel-X's comments will still be visible on someone else's content. This feels odd.
## Change
In addition to the blacklist, filter-list and muted-list, we now include the Commentron blocklists (personal, admin, moderator) when filtering out comments.
## Specifics
`makeSelectCommentsForUri`, `makeSelectTopLevelCommentsForUri` and `makeSelectRepliesForParentId` all perform the same filtering code. Factor that out to `makeSelectFilteredComments` and add the Commentron lists into the mix.
## Downsides
This probably adds to the already-high CPU usage in rendering comments.
## Issue
If the linked-comment is also a pinned comment, it was displayed twice.
## Fix
When separating out pinned comments, I forgot that `comment.ByID` was another place where we fetch comments.
* Automatically claim initial rewards (new_user & email_verified) when accessing creating channel, edit channel and upload

## Tickets
- 5504 Signing out of account causes page to break in other tabs
- 6829 merged accounts - force log out / fail sync when x-auth-token and cookie auth token are different
## Steps to replicate
1. Login to odysee with account-A.
2. Open another tab, and split both tabs on the screen.
3. Logout from the 1st tab. Do not activate (focus) the 2nd tab.
4. On the 1st tab, login with account-B.
5. Activate (focus) the 2nd tab. The wallet would have been merged, and we are still logged in as account-A.
## Approach
Reload when the LBRY API token no longer matches the auth token.
## Ticket
6879: Previously pinned livestream comments show as latest
## Issue
`comment.List` will always display the pinned comment first, hence the problem when the chat is refreshed.
## Approach
Completely split pinned comments from top-level comments in the Reducer, and the let the GUI (e.g. regular comments, livestream comments) decide how they want to display it.
For the case of livestream, there is no need to repeat the pinned comments in the regular chat area, since there is a dedicated area on top.
## General
- `setting.List`: returns full creator settings. Requires signature (i.e. you own the channel)
- `setting.Get`: returns a public subset of the creator settings. No signature required, and it is mainly used by the GUI to determine the constraints of a channel (e.g. comments enabled? min tip requirements? etc.). Does not include private settings like "blocked words list".
`doFetchCreatorSettings` will handle both of these. Clients that uses the stashed results (`settingsByChannelId`) just needs to be aware the result might not contain everything, depending on whether you own the channel or not.
## Misc Related Changes
- Finally fix the reducer for COMMENT_FETCH_SETTINGS_COMPLETED to not purge the data on each call.
- Change `doFetchCreatorSettings` to operate on a single channel instead of multiple. We ended up not using the multple mode anyway, so it was wasteful code trying to batch the promises.
- `commentsDisabledChannelIds` is no longer needed. Previously, this was created just to differentiate between Creator (full) and Channel (subset) settings. It's cleaner to just use one object, so eliminated this.
- Remove unused 'commentingEnabled'.
## Aside
- There are now 2 ways to know if a channel has disabled comments: (1) from `comment.list` and `setting.Get|List`. Both of them updates `settingsByChannelId`, so it'll still be a single place for the GUI to check against.
## Issue
> 5459 Add setting for changing your comment server. Visible on desktop (and possibly defaulting to Odysee URL), hidden on odysee.
## Comments
Not sure how this would actually work properly without the user recompiling the app to handle server differences. For example, even when we use our own server but switch between v1 and v2, some code changes are need to handle the differences. At that point, it seems easier for the user to just change the .env file? Anyway...
## Changes
- Added Desktop-only options to define custom server. [Settings > Advanced Settings > "Comment server" section].
## Issue
6832: Pass through commenting error if it fails current error list
## Changes
- Refactor the error-msg-replacing code to make it easier to add new ones in the future.
- Made the new error message localizable (i.e. extract the variable value, pass to `__()`)
- Fallback to Commentron original message for those unhandled ones (usually fresh messages from Commentron).
## Issue
6366 Recsys Evaluation Telemetry
The recommended list from lighthouse is obtained from `makeSelectRecommendedContentForUri`. This list is further tweaked by the GUI (e.g. move autoplay next item to top, remove blocked content, etc.). Recsys wants the final recommendation list and the clicked index (in exact order), so we need pass these info to the videojs recsys plugin somehow. Also, Recsys wants a recommendation list ID as well as the parent (referrer) ID, we so need to track the clicks and navigation.
## General Approach
- It seems easiest to just spew back the final (displayed) list and all the required info to Redux, and the recsys plugin (or anyone else in the future) can grab it.
- Try to touch few files as possible. The dirty work should all reside in `<RecommendedContent>` only.
## Changes
- `ClaimPreview`: add optional parameters to store an ID of the container that it is in (for this case, it is `ClaimList`) as well as the index within the container.
- When clicked, we store the container ID in the navigation history `state` object.
- For general cases, anyone can check this state from `history.location.state` to know which container referred/navigated to the current page. For the recsys use case, we can use this as the `parentUUID`.
- `ClaimList`: just relay `onClick` and set IDs.
- `RecommendedContent`: now handles the uuid generation (for both parent and child) and stores the data in Redux.
## Issue
Creating Settings suddenly start to stop loading correctly for some of my channels.
## Change
`settings.List` now returns null instead of empty array. Double-checked the Commentron repo and this is indeed the case.
Updated the code to handle null.

If there are no API errors but no reactions returned, consider the requested IDs as "done" and stop requesting again. When a channel is being confirmed, Commentron doesn't return the reaction object.

In the event that Commentron returned an empty object, we'll end up re-requesting the same IDs again. Haven't seens this happen before, but since we don't know what's causing the spike, we'll just consider failures and "fetched" to stop the loop.
User can always click Refresh to repopulate the values.
## Issue
- `Comment.replies` currently represent all replies, while `comment.List` returns a filtered version, so the actual replies could be less.
- The actual replies is represented by `total_filtered_items`, but we only get that after making a fetch. So, users could click "Show more" but get nothing.
## Fix
- Stop showing "Show more" based on `total_filtered_items`.
- If there is a balance, display 1 dummy comment to represent all blocked replies. This handles the case of "Show more" being displayed but ended up with 0 replies if all replies were blocked.
## Future
Note that `Comment.replies` might be changed to represented filtered comments in the near future (refer to Beamer), so the GUI is made such that the dummy just won't appear when that change happens.

## Issue
The "Muted Words" PR elevated Comment-API errors so we can handle it (previously, it goes unnoticed). This broke the other Comment functions because the spammer mitigation might return an error, causing `Promise.all` to bail early.
## Fix
Changed to `Promise.allSettled` and reconstructed the results. This will make it equivalent to the code prior to the "Muted Words" PR.
