## Issue
The toast wasn't good enough as the user might miss it and attempt to re-send.
## Change
- Change the tip timeout from Toast to Modal.
- For the case of Comments, add additional info about being unable to re-link the txid to the comment for now. Not really useful to the user, but better than nothing.

## Issue
The displayed order of the recs are often re-adjusted -- viewed content are pushed to the bottom to avoid auto-play-next from picking it up again. This was causing recsys to be confused, because the click order does not correspond the results.
## Change
Refactored the selector we can grab the raw results and use that as the index reference.
## Ticket
1583: "add incontent ads to category/channel pages (break up every X claims?), or add back bottom ad in those areas."
## Behavioral changes
- Hide when in homepage (as currently we have ads between categories).
- Fix the light theme (it was transparent).
## Code changes
- While an Effect is the 'right' choice given that there is no jsx to mount, the need to prop-drill from the parent was getting a bit annoying, so converted to a Component instead.
- Remove the delay for Core Vitals avoidance for now -- seems to make the sticky less likely to serve an ad.
- Now that the membership state is correctly populated for incognito (see 9d830615), there is no more need to check for `isAuthenticated`.

* Adjust quality selector
* Adjust updated player theme for light mode
* Rename wrapper class
Run the membership reducer even for incognito.
The GUI needs to differentiate between 'unfetched' (`undefined`) and 'no membership' (`''`), so we must call the action/reducer for the incognito case as well.
Using that global variable was a bad idea. Stick to redux as the source of truth.
The flag is not listed for rehydration, so it will always start off as `undefined`, which is what we need anyways.
`undefined` indicates we haven't tested for ad-blockers, so we'll run the fetch and update the store with a true|false value.
This was tested to be removed during evaluation, but seems like there are cases where it comes back.
This solution should be more robust: hide for all, except when in our designated container.
It would be nice if the individual components can handle the remounting of the ad-script, but there is currently a need to synchronize the cleanup of the `window.OBR` object.
The quickest solution for now is to add a key at the parent side to synchronize the mount-unmounting. Not ideal -- revisit later.
- This increases the amount of ads, filling up the entire width. No more need to restrict with `max-width` ourself.
- Changed the ad-driver to top-right since the "Powered by Outbrain" text is now locked in bottom-right. Also made the container having a minimum height, as the method to "display the driver after ads are loaded" is not future proof -- it depends on the IDs being used by the ad. Reserving some space seems to be easiest, and it also reduces shifts as well.
Previously, we hide when authenticated.
We still need the `isAuthenticated` flag, because `hasPremiumPlus` stays at the unfetched (`undefined`) state for Incognito.
## Behavior in homepage
- Mobile: show after every other category
- Desktop: show after first category, then every 2 categories.
## Known issue:
- "FYP" is not part of the categories array at the moment, so it does mess up the behavior.
## Notes
I think this is also called "in-content" by adnim (not 100% sure of the terminology).
My bad, added an unnecessary check in the previous change that shorted the logic too early.
Accessing an object using 'null' or 'undefined' as the key won't cause trouble (and is expected in this case), so just suppress flow instead of fixing it using
`channelId && geoBlockLists.livestreams[channelId]`

... but leave Following as "no limit"
The primary reason for this case is due to News and Wild West having lots of livestreams. But instead of just applying the limit to these 2 and polluting the loop, just limit it for all Categories.
Requires a related commit from the homepages repo.
## Changes
- Add ability to reset the sort order.
- Make 'News' and 'Wild West' a "hideByDefault" category. It can be made visible in the homepage from the customization dialog.
## Ticket
1572
Always check for availability before use.
## Changes
- Consolidated the keys into one place for easier tracking.
- It'll also be easier to code using constant autocomplete.
- Cleaned up the wrapper to be as close as the original.
- Updated existing code to use the wrapper (even if they already handled the availability) to encourage future code to just use the wrapper.
## Issue
- Closes "1535 bunch of channels (from featured?) resolved on page load"
- It was due to the use of reposts in the Category. As we did not store the repost's original channel claim, `ChannelThumbnail` couldn't find the author and requested a separate `resolve`.
## Change
Store the repost's original channel claim as well.
## Issue
Contents aren't block if you own them, but need to tell creator that is it blocked for others.
## Change
- Show a banner on Content and Channel Page for this scenario.
- Hover tooltip is available for the full text. For mobile, tapping it reveals the message.
Note that this only applies to the locale from where the creator is viewing it from. We can ignore locale, but would then need to display _all_ geo-restrictions related to the content in a list.
- Add ability to store `entries` into Redux.
- Sync to redux in the same interval as when playing position is saved (re-use timer).
- On startup, send any stashed entries and clear them.
* Show-page: split out some effects
Break apart the large effect for easier tweaking, abiding by the 1-action-per-effect guideline.
This also fixes the dependency list. After checking with Haffa, the exclusion of `pathname` and `hash` from the list is probably to avoid hitting `doResolveUri`. This should no longer be an issue after the split, so no suppression needed.
* Show-page: fix "no content found" flicker
## Issue
1539: "Recently been seeing a flicker of "content not found" when direct loading content or channel links on mobile"
## Cause
`doResolveUri` can only be called after the initial mount (in the effect), so at first render, `isResolvingUri` won't be set yet, so we briefly ended up in the "no content found" path.
## Change
Factor out the logic that determines if we should send `doResolveUri`. This allows us to know that the upcoming effect will be sending `doResolveUri`, so we can hold off displaying "no content found".
* Show-page: don't delay the spinner when resolving
## Reason
The delay causes a blank page + footer, which looks bad.
* Remove claim from channel page when geoblock conditions hits
Ticket: 1100
* Handle geoblocked channel page
## Ticket
1100
## Issue
"If a channel is geoblocked, the entire channel page (even showing titles, etc. would be against the law)"
## Issues
- Not safe to call the parent callback from the render function. It must be called from an effect or
- `onHidden` is only called when blacklisted, but it can also be hidden from other circumstances.
- While those other circumstances doesn't apply for FYP (the first client that relies on `onHidden`, it's incorrect from a code perspective, unless it is renamed to `onBlacklisted`.
## Change
- Move the callback execution into an effect.
- Ensure `onHidden` is for all situations that it is hidden.
Effects cannot be defined after the render function returns early, so it was not possible to add new effects when the derived variables that it depends on are way down below.
1. Hardcoding breaks any image changes done on dev instances or locally.
2. The relative path is bad, and there are few more instances of it. But continue as is for now, will file a ticket to fix this.
3. Fix caching.
- Don't want to show it in Incognito.
- Only show it in when entered from homepage, or in the Help page.
- Record the hash of the viewed announcement and update the wallet with it.
This stores the hash for the last viewed announcement.
The intention is so that the announcement won't re-appear when logging into another device.
However, this does mean that announcements would need to wait until the first sync to decide whether to appear or not, which can be quite a delay.
This requires an accompanying commit in the homepages repo (see "Add announcement support").
Using `raw-loader` to import markdown files as a string works for the app-side, but didn't work well in web-side. Falling back to copying the announcement files to `dist` and reading them via `readFileSync`. Don't really like this -- will return with an alternative.
Moving away from the function version to the object version. Trying to track down why the effect that closes the modal ran when the pathname did not change. My only guess is the unstable hideModal reference due to the function mapping. There is no customization needed, so the object version is preferred anyways.
`doOpenModal` isn't used, so I just removed that.
* PublishFile: fix render function violation
Per doc:
> A React component should not cause side effects in other components during rendering.
Even in own render function (allowed to call), it should be avoided as it could cause infinite loops.
* PublishFile: fix useEffect infinite loop due to bad dependency
## Issue
One of the effects was adding an internal wrapper function as a dependency. As this is a functional component, the wrapper is re-created on every render and would spark the effect. That effect also updates redux (depending on the code path), so we end up in a loop.
## Change 1
Two options to fix the dependency:
1. Just remove the wrappers from the list, since we "know" it is essentially the same function (i.e. it's not function-variable that could point to something else at runtime).
2. Peek into the wrapper and determine what are the actual dependencies (usually props or data derived from props).
Solution 2 is the norm.
Aside: wrappers are usually the root-cause of incorrect dependencies, because they mask away the actual code. Need to always peek into it.
## Change 2
Next, change the dispatch-to-props map from function version to object version so that we have stable references to the actions. The object version is also preferred when we don't need to make any customizations to the actions.
This reverts commit f6f15531d4.
The root-cause was known (8dd0982f), and I don't think it worked because:
1. The issue happened at the web side which didn't have logging.
2. The `[object Promise]` came after the `get`, not before.
