## Issues
- 251 Dragging the floating player is super laggy
Recent changes and/or refactoring combined the effects or added dependancies into the effects, causing them to re-run excessively.
## Changes
- Restored effects to their original behavior.
- Don't perform the position check when dragging -- only do it when released.
- Do proper debouncing for the 'resize' listener -- the previous method was incorrect as a new function is created on each render.
## Changes
- doHandleSyncComplete: only call doGetAndPopulatePreferences when there is new data.
- But for that to work, we'll need to populate preferences at least once. We'll do that in doSignIn.
- We can also remove the "sync/prefs ready" mechanism that was mainly meant for Desktop.
Then came another problem: while trying to spark changes between 2 tabs, `sync/get` was saying "no change" despite the local and server hash being different. I think it is because the both `sync_hash + sync/get` combo is operating on server data, so the hash is the same. I'm guessing this is why we ended up just running doGetAndPopulatePreferences every time before PR, since this flag wasn't correct in this scenario.
- Updated `data.changed` to consider both API results and comparison with local hash.
* Exclude default homepage data at compile time
The youtuber IDs alone is pretty huge, and is unused in the `CUSTOM_HOMEPAGE=true` configuration.
* Remove Desktop items and other cleanup
- Moved constants out of the component.
- Remove SIMPLE_SITE check.
- Remove Desktop-only items
* Sidebar: limit subscription and tag section
## Issue
Too slow for huge lists

Limit to 10 initially, and load everything on "Show more"

## Issues with `makeSelectIsSubscribed`
- It will not return true if the uri provided is canonical, because the compared subscription uri is in permanent form. This was causing certain elements like the Heart to not appear in claim tiles.
- It is super slow for large subscriptions not just because of the array size + being a hot selector, but also because it is looking up the claim twice (not memo'd) and also calling `parseURI` to determine if it's a channel, which is unnecessary if you already have the claim.
## Changes
- Optimize the selector to only look up the claim once, and make operations using already-obtained info.
## Issue
~300KB savings in `ui.js` size (production, uncompressed). Mostly coming from the emoji library.
## Notes
Most of the `Comment*` components are under `CommentsList` or `LivestreamComments`, so deferring these 2 covered most of it. The exceptions are Notification and OwnComments.
## Why
Frequently used; top in perf profile
## Changes
Most of the time, you already have the claim object in the current context. `selectClaimIsMineForUri` will retrieve the claim again, which is wasteful, even if it is memoized (looking up the cache still takes time).
Break apart the logic and added the alternative `selectClaimIsMine` for faster lookup.
* Publish button: use spinner instead of "Publishing..."
Looks better, plus the preview could take a while sometimes.
* Refactor `doPublish`. No functional change
This is to allow `doPublish` to accept a custom payload as an input (for resuming uploads), instead of always resolving it from the redux data.
* Add doPublishResume
* Support resume-able upload via tus
## Issue
38 Handle resumable file upload
## Notes
Since we can't serialize a File object, we'll need to the user to re-select the file to resume.
* Exclude "modified date" for Firefox/Android
## Issue
It appears that the modification date of the Android file changes when selected, so that file was deemed "different" when trying to resume upload.
## Change
Exclude modification date for now. Let's assume a smart user.
* Move 'currentUploads' to 'publish' reducer
`publish` is currently rehydrated, so we can ride on that and don't need to store the `currentUploads` in `localStorage` for persistence. This would allow us to store Markdown Post data too, as `localStorage` has a 5MB limit per app.
We could have also made `webReducer` rehydrate, but in this repo, there is no need to split it to another reducer. It also makes more sense to be part of publish anyway (at least to me).
This change is mostly moving items between files, with the exception of
1. An additional REHYDRATE in the publish reducer to clean up the tusUploader.
2. Not clearing `currentUploads` in CLEAR_PUBLISH.
* Restore v1 code for livestream replay, etc.
v2 (tus) does not handle `remote_url`, so the app still needs v1 for that. Since we'll still have v1 code, use v1 for previews as well.
- memo not required.
- start to not use the confusing and wrongly-named 'selectCommentsByUri' (per comment from Sean); use the existing 'selectClaimIdForUri' instead. This works because currently we do fetch any comments without first visiting a claim/uri, so we'll always have fetched the required claim, and can be queried in 'selectClaimIdForUri'.
## Issue
`normalizeUri` | `parseURI` is expensive and has been causing sluggish operations when called repeatedly or within a loop.
## Change
Since I'm not confident enough to remove the call entirely from makeSelectClaimIsMine (although I've yet to find a scenario that the uri is not already normalized), we'll try caching the calls instead.
## Results
- in a simple test of toggling between 2 category pages, we saved 20ms from `parseURI` calls alone.
- in a test of opening all categories one time, the memory usage remained similar. This makes sense since we removed a `makeSelect*` (which creates a selector for each call + not memoizing), and replaced that with a cached selector that's actually memoizing.
* Simplify dispatch map
Since none of dispatches are doing any custom transformation, just use a direct map. The number of arguments for the comment function are getting crazy.
* Block: pass comment ID for deletion when being blocked.
## Issue
238 Comments: author-name not highlighted when in Channel Community tab
## Changes
- Channel claims don't have a signing channel. Use `getChannelFromClaim`, which handles both content and channel claim.
## Ticket
223 Add ability for delegated moderators to delete comments
## Changes
- Refactored doCommentAbandon's signature so we don't end up converting between "uri" and "Claim" several times and needing to lookup redux when the client can already provide us the exact values that we need.
- Pass the new moderator fields to the API.
- Remove the need to call 'makeSelectChannelPermUrlForClaimUri' since it's a simple field query when we already have the claim.
I tried to use event.preventDefault on the click handler but that didn't
work. So instead I'm using css 'pointer-events: none' to disable click
events on the player while the player is being dragged.
https://github.com/OdyseeTeam/odysee-frontend/issues/206
- selectMyChannelClaims depends on `byId`, which currently is always invalidated per update, so it is not memoized.
- Most of the use-cases just needs the ID or the length of the array anyways, so avoid generating a Claim array (in selectMyChannelClaims) unnecessarily -- the client need to reduce it back down to IDs again :/
- The simpler boolean also removes the need to memoize the selector, which saves a bit of memory.

`selectMyActiveClaims` includes pending claims, so it gets invalidated often.

* Prevent multiple parseURI calls
## Ticket
129
## Issue
Code was shortened to use `isURIValid` during the consolidation. `isURIValid` calls `normalizeURI`, which calls another `parseURI`.
`parseURI` is pretty expensive.
## Approach
- Add optional parameter to `isURIValid` to skip the normalization.
- Set those that were converted during the consolidation to skip the normalization. Also covered a few other instances where it is obvious to me that normalization is not required.
- For the rest, I can't tell for sure if it's safe to remove the normalization, so the default `normalize=true` will leave things as is.
The whole `parseURI` probably needs a refactoring, or a few lighter version for specific needs.
* Simplify isURIEqual
## Issue
`parseURI` is too expensive to be used in a loop, plus `normalizeURI` itself is calling `parseURI`.
## Approach
Not sure if it covers all cases, but just try convert colons to hashes before comparing.
## Issue
95% of `secondary.js` is unused code.
- It was meant to reduce network overhead by chunking up files needed after bootup, and also to reduce the number of `vendor-*.js` files.
- But it ended up accidentally grabbing everything, defeating the purpose of code-splitting.
Added a re-usable "yes/no" confirmation modal where the client just sets the question string and gets a callback "OK" or "Cancel" is clicked.
It doesn't make sense to create one modal for each confirmation, especially when the modal is only used in one place.
Replaced one of the existing modal as an example.

* Add stickers display to comments and hyperchats
* Fix wrong checks for total Super Chats
## Issue
- Go to a channel page
- Go to Wild West
- Back
- Expand the search filter (valid here)
- Forward
## Fix
Resolve the 'expanded' setting on mount to ensure it is never true when 'hideAdvancedFilter' is set.
4a22814c broke the intention of if-block (it essentially breaks the functionality in Search page if we enable view counts there in the future).
It also seems completely unrelated to the PR.
* various control bar fixes
* fixes for mobile
* hide advertisement div by default
* fix duration bar
* more frontend touchups
* more styles
* fix for advertisement bar showing
* dont use ima on each re-render
## Issue
We previously automatically reload when there is a chunk error. This works fine if it's the case of new code was pushed recently while the user was active. But if the failure was caused by other things like network problems or the file IS actually missing, we end up in an infinite loop of refreshes.
## New approach
Tell the user to reload instead of automatically doing it.

## Issue
- Each tile was checking against 4 blocklists (blacklisted, filtered, muted, commentron) on every render. Loading the front-page with Cheese alone caused 1400 calls.
- This is also part of the reason why pressing Back into the tile list takes forever.
## Fix
Since we still need to perform the checks at the app side for now, tried to memoize the operation through a selector.
## Issue
85 Add additional GA events
## Approach
Instead of placing analytic calls all over the GUI code (no separation of concerns), try to do it through a redux middleware instead.
## Changes
- Updated GA event and parameter naming after understanding how reporting works.
- Removed unused analytics.
Only picking components that are involved in a livestream for now. Ideally, all usages of `makeSelectClaimForUri` should be replaced -- will do it incrementally.
followedTags:
- Moved the filtering to the reducer side, so that we don't do it every time. We can't rely on `createSelector` because the store will be invalidated on each `USER_STATE_POPULATE`, unfortunately.
tags:
- Memoize via re-reselect for the "ForUri" selector.
## 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
Now that we batch-resolve the comment authors before displaying the comments, the linked-comment scrolling logic didn't work well with nested replies.
## Change
Previously, I didn't want to put the logic at the lowest level (`Comment`) because it was hard for the child to know whether to scroll or not. For example, we don't want to scroll when user changes the comment filters or presses the Refresh Comments button.
Relented and moved the logic to `Comment`, and pass a flag via `window` (I know this is frowned upon by some) to indicate whether a scrolling is needed.
This is probably more efficient overall as we don't need to scan the DOM, and with minimal delay as we scroll immediately after the linked-comment is mounted.
## Known issues
In markdown posts with lots of images, a layout shift due to delayed inline-image fetching can cause the scrolling to be inaccurate. This should be fixed by reserving space for markdown post images.
## Issue
60 setting.Get calls spiked since October
It was called 24 times per livestream page load.
## Notes
The effect was intended to be a one-time effect, but the dependency was changed in 2f4dedfb

* final touchups
This reverts commit caadd889ce, reversing
changes made to 8b2c7a2b21.
## Issue
- Infinite `resolve` loop when deleted channel is present in the comments.
- Since it was only displayed comments with resolved channels, it masked away those comments. While that may or may not be regarded as a defect, I think we should do it at Commentron instead of at the app if we want to filter deleted channels. I vote to show comments from deleted channels, since it might have good conversation thread.

* Fix Markdown Lists in Comments
* Disable copy link menu option on livestream comments

* Fix mention parsing
## Issue
40 Linked comments doesn't scroll for deep replies
## Notes
Don't need an effect for this, plus it was causing the parent to not pick it up for auto-scrolling.
## Issues
- The current version of the link handler doesn't seem able to control the livestream player's position.
- The "live" position is always 0:00 and everything behind it is a negative timestamp. The current timestamp parser doesn't handle negative values.

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.
* Add Channel Mention selection ability
* Fix mentioned user name being smaller than other text
* Improve logic for locating a mention

* clean up the css
* add scss to flow config
* add scss component to flow config
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.
## Issue
7176
## Changes
Pitfalls of pausing render via React.memo:
- We'll miss the `doClaimSearch()` since that is sparked by an `useEffect`.
Seems like we can't avoid having a redundant copy of the previously-displayed URIs.
## Ticket
7165 homepage queries don't take into account blocked channel ids (mute does)
## Changes
resolveSearchOptions: was not grabbing redux data correctly.
* ❌ 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
If you navigated to a Channel Page and returned to the homepage (or any page with ClaimPreview), the view-count is shown because we have that data.
## Fix
Instead of passing props around through the long "list" component chain (`ChannelContent -> ClaimListDiscover -> ClaimList -> ClaimPreview`) to indicate whether we should display it , just check the pathname at the lowest component level; I believe eventually we would display it everywhere anyways, so this we'll be the easiest to clean up.
## Issue
7102 Failed to initialize numberformat on some browsers
## Changes
Just revert to the non-SI notation (but still locale aware) for browsers that does not support the `compactDisplay` option.
I thought of adding an English-only abbreviation for that corner-case, but I think it's not worth the effort maintaining. There are worse issues happening on older browsers, such as icons not aligning properly in buttons and functions that require polyfilling.
## Issues

## Changes
I meant to only add the macro at the client call during the refactoring, but forgot.
Having said that, I now think it's cleaner to put the macro where it is defined, and it's easier for Translators to find, so I added the macro in the definition instead of at the client call.
## Issue
1. Type something in the wunderbar.
2. While the spinner is running, press Tab to focus on "View results" button.
3. If the spinner is still running, the entire popup gets dismissed (it should not). If the spinner isn't running, the popup stays active.
## Change
It was explicitly dismissed when the <input> loses focus. It shouldn't do that if any child of the popup is in focus.
## Issue
7075 Move "explore tags" to a stable position
## Changes
Move the buttons in the suggestions popup to the top row so that it's position won't be constantly changing depending on the number of results.
* Fix Floating Player stopping on certain files
* Dont show additional player buttons from markdown and comments
* Fix markdown resizing for the same video playing
* Update changelog
* Sort props to clarify "client vs. redux". No functional change.
* ClaimListHeader: remove SIMPLE_SITE gating
* Channel Page: enable filters; add "sort by" filter.
## Issue
7059 Add option to sort oldest first on channel page
## Changes
- Enabled filters for Odysee.
- Added a new "Sort By" filter, which will only appear for "New" ordering. It doesn't make sense for "Trending" or "Top".
## 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.
* Paginate: add option to disable history and url param
* Refactored blocklists into `BlockList`; no functional change
Reason:
- With each list (Personal, Admin, Mod, Muted), there's a bunch of useEffects and variables needed to handle the state. All of them are doing 99% similar things.
* Paginate blocklists
6834
* Improve 'moderator-block' list visuals
- Added "Blocked on behalf of" to make things clearer.
- Use smaller ClaimPreview for delegators to save space (there might be lots of delegators)
* Add search bar to BlockList
6834
- Only supports channel-name search, per 6834. Channel-title search would probably be too heavy on the client side.
- Fuzzy search is possible, but is too slow on huge lists. Ended up with a simpler `matchSorter.rankings.CONTAINS`, which I think would cover typical cases.
## Issue
6776 Missing follow button on channel reposts
- Missing:
- Fix: For reposts, `parseURI` will fail to determine if it's a channel because the URL doesn't have enough info. Determine from the claim object instead.
- Not working in Channel Page:
- Fix: The repost uri doesn't link back to the source channel, so we'll need to handle it.
* show error from backend properly
* cleanup code and add documentation
* persist active tab but force people to boost tab if it's on their own upload
* set tip lbc as default when none is saved in state
## Issue
3587 Show content view counts on channel pages
## Notes
Limited to just "channel pages" for now as specified in the ticket.
Can be enabled for all claim previews, as long as there's an efficient spot to run the batch fetching. Either make `fetchViewCount` prop default to true, or add the parameter in places that need it.
- Factor out for re-use in upcoming Shared Blocklist
- Improvements:
- Uses floating popup to show the suggestion/result rather than inline.
- Users can now press Enter to select the suggestion, instead of having to use the mouse.
- Users now don't need to enter '@' for channel names. They will still need to enter the full channel name, and disambiguate with claim_id if necessary.
- Fix jumpiness in position as the user types.
- Reverted #7004 as it ended up preventing the rest of the components from being localized when there is an error. Replaced that with a `setLabel` that simply checks if the component exists before setting the label.
- Fix "Autoplay Next On" not localized on initial load -- it was only localized when the setting changes. It is unfortunate that we need to also set the label in an additional `useEffect` instead of just using vjs events, but so be it.
## 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).

## Issue
6989 console errors and warnings are getting out of hand!
## Notes
This method was previously criticized in 5643. But given that no better solution has been submitted after a long while, nor is there a new solution for doing i18n, I'm reviving it again. It'll be no worse from the status quo.
Despite try-catch being overkill, I think the code-clarity outweighs the performance issues (if any, in the first place). Also, we are only suppressing the error in a very specialized function which even if it fails, will simply be a no-op and the GUI falling back to English.
## Ticket
6946: Linked-comment scroll position is inconsistent
## Issues
- If it is a deeply-nested reply, the positioning is incorrect.
- If there are pinned comments, the positioning is way off.
- If there is a delay in mounting, the positioning doesn't happen.
- When clicking on the comment's date to highlight it, the comment goes missing and the scroll position is weird.
## Changes
- Take into account that replies can be linked-comments.
- Perform a "one-time" search for the linked-comment after the initial fetch, if necessary. The expensive DOM search is only be executed minimally.
Remove defunct "show comment menu on hover" implementation.
It was re-rendering on every mouse movement, plus the css classname no longer exists, and also it wasn't working right in the first place (reverted few Desktop revision back, and all it did was highlighting the menu rather than controlling the visibility).
If we want the "show comment menu on hover" behavior again in the future, the CPU usage problem can probably be addressed by debouncing/throttling state-change.
Trying to action this issue: Pressing escape in wunderbar should do something useful #2116, I also added ctrl-K as a keyboard shortcut to bring the wunderbar into focus.
## Issue
- While changing the "Back" behavior in the Settings Page PR, it was a pain to troubleshoot when the entire history list is listed as "odysee.com".
- If you have multiple tabs open, it's hard to know which is which for non-claim and non-channel pages.
## Approach
Initially, I thought of overriding the document's title through the `<Page>` component, since the titles are usually defined there. However, given that the router is already doing the overriding, I think it's best to do the same thing all in one place.
Downside: it might get missed when a new page is added.
## Unknown
- Not sure if are rules for titles. There seems to be a mix of sites -- some have specific titles per page, most just use the site title for each page.
- I think the `return` statement in the `useEffect` is unnecessary, since it'll just be setting to the same value now during the cleanup stage. (??)

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".
The previous version treats each navigation as a link, ala Chrome Settings. I liked it because I can enter a settings section directly via URL, and can always back-track each section.
Anyway, changed it to the typical "up" behavior, traversing back the hierarchy of settings pages.
It was phrased negatively as the feedback back then was the string should match whatever is on the actual dialog (which was "Skip preview and confirmation"). But now it looks odd when we have an additional title string. We think titles should be positively phrased, hence the change.
Changed from constants to object. This allows us to skip prettier's auto line-breaking with just one comment (instead of for each constant), plus I like object style to group things together in general.
I think it looks better to not place the title within the card's border when there are multiple cards in a page, like in the case of the new Settings Layout. Otherwise, it's hard to differentiate between title and settings-row.
The proper method is to style Card itself, but this is a quick fix for the Settings Page PR. Will come back to it later.
All <Setting*> components will have an ID that corresponds to the sidebar link. When clicked, we scroll to the position of the card by searching for the element with the ID. It behaves simiar to # anchor navigation.
I like this model mainly because in Mobile, users don't need to keep opening the drawer to navigate -- they just need to scroll. This allows us to use the same design for Mobile and App.
Placed settings that we allow for unauthenticated users under <SettingUnauthenticated>. While it is redundant, it's easier to handle the grouping, and more readable overall.
Also made visual changes for the new Settings Page.
## SyncToggle:
It will no longer be under a dedicated Card, so the "Sync" title is not there to give context for the case of "no verified email".
Changed it such that the checkbox is always visible (it's label is self-explanatory) but disable when email is not set. The "Add Email" button will then appear below, so everything now makes sense in context.
* remove help card from lists page
* filtering to playlists page
* refactor
* clear playlists filter on escape
* rename
* no show playlist limit for now
* Automatically claim initial rewards (new_user & email_verified) when accessing creating channel, edit channel and upload
* Do not try to get initial rewards if already claimed.
## Ticket
5457 Create file thumbnail fallback image for odysee
## Approach
Since `background-image` does not invoke an `onerror` event, create a test Image instance to have the `onerror` capability. This technique is used by majority of plugins. No additional fetch is seen with this technique.
## 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.
## Ticket
6886 Livestream auto-scroll problems
## Issue
- `performedInitialScroll` was problematic as it won't allow auto-scroll even when user scrolled back to the bottom.
- The dependence on `commentElement` seems to assume a certain comment height? Not sure.
## Approach
- Add a scroll listener and stash the last scroll position.
- When a message is received, check if it's at the bottom. If yes, maintain that position after the new comment is added. If not, leave as is.
- When submitting a comment, always reset to the bottom.
## Ticket
6743: Desktop: "Back" in Following Page no longer restores scroll position
## Issue
This was a side-effect of "6609 claimListDiscover: don't re-render until query is done". That PR did not handle the case of navigating backwards, which typically would just need to display past results. It ended up always starting with a blank list on mount, so the scroll position could not be restored correctly.
I don't know why it still worked on Web/Chrome -- maybe the latest browser knows how to move to desired scroll position when the height is available.
## Change
If navigating backwards, initialize the final URI list with the previous result. It is almost always correct, and if not, will be corrected in the effects. This saves us one re-render when navigating backwards too.
## Issue
6467 Add status indicators for messages from creator, delegated moderator, global moderator
## Changes
- Added the required icons.
- Added tooltip.
## Notes
- Left out "creator" since we are already highlighting the creator's name.
- Note that currently the status is only available via websocket deltas. `comment.List` does not provide the data.
- When `comment.List` includes the info, regular comments will automatically include these badges.

To avoid calling `setting.Get` excessively, we'll fetch the latest settings one last time before sending a tip. We'll also fetch in several areas, like when a comment action fails (most likely creator just enforced a minimum).
This will be easier when websocket send an update.
## 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].
