I think i figured out why Apple watch doesn't work on wasteof3: it doesn't support the set-cookie header

Oh. Is there a potential solution?

7/21/2022, 3:12:05 AM

oren:

I think so, but I'll tell you tomorrow when I'm not on my watch

grippins:

Good night fellow Apple Watchian

7/21/2022, 3:29:35 AM

oren:

Good night

7/21/2022, 3:43:44 AM

oren:

good morning

The solution is:

• add an api to get auth that doesn’t send the token in a header (mostly copy-pasting from the current auth api)

• add a listener to the form to intercept the default behavior (posting to the original api) and instead post to the new api and then save the returned cookie in the browser using document.cookie (this works, I’ve tested)

• But don’t change the form’s default behavior, so it’ll still work when javascript is disabled

Nice! I can’t wait to be able to use the beta on AW (if Jeffalo gets to this)

7/21/2022, 3:14:54 PM

oren:

The beta actually looks more Apple Watch friendly than wasteof2, because it has <dialog>s in many places instead of alerts

7/21/2022, 3:21:11 PM

jeffalo:

<dialog>?

7/21/2022, 9:45:34 PM

oren:

some kind of modal at least, not alerts

7/21/2022, 10:03:47 PM

jeffalo:

the solution is that apple stops being difficult and just follows the web spec. its not for me to bend over backwards to support their dumb limitations

7/21/2022, 9:46:20 PM

oren:

well it is the Apple Watch, which isn’t remotely intended to be a web browser

7/21/2022, 10:05:09 PM

jeffalo:

so why should i change my site to make it work on apple watches? if a browser can't support the most basic features that's not my fault.

7/22/2022, 5:56:56 AM

oren:

It is very easy to change it though, just saying

7/22/2022, 2:17:06 PM

thanks for making wasteof (today I’ve been on it for 1 year)

jeffalo:

anytime :)

7/19/2022, 4:38:16 PM

jeffalo:

actually not anytime.. i have homework. but you’re welcome :P

7/19/2022, 4:38:36 PM

oren:

you should use the imgbb api (free) to add image uploading

7/20/2022, 6:21:37 PM

oren:

:)

7/19/2022, 4:38:40 PM

am i allowed to write a script that automatically unfollows every person I've followed

jeffalo:

i guess. as long as it only does that, and has a reasonable delay between actions

7/18/2022, 5:12:32 AM

thank you for half pfp

jeffalo:

no problem

7/18/2022, 5:12:52 AM

blank reports exist

jeffalo:

yeah that's intentional?

7/18/2022, 5:12:48 AM

(wo3) when clicking on the “load more” button (on the homepage) after someone i follow posted, it shows the post above the “load more” button twice.

jeffalo:

known issue that is hard to fix.

7/18/2022, 5:13:18 AM

Are there any beta features right now? If so, what are they?

jeffalo:

the whole site was redesigned, including profiles pages. you can now set a sidebar on your profile and other stuff. beta.wasteof.money

7/17/2022, 8:31:00 AM

There should be a way to report profiles

When will we have a WOM forum? It’l be nice

Having trouble logging in to one of my accounts (@9)

Error is “not using password”

What does this mean?

jeffalo:

sorry for the unclear error message. it means the account doesn’t have a password linked to it, aka it only has github or google auth.

7/15/2022, 3:35:12 PM

oren:

what the- both of those (google and GitHub) are linked to my main account

7/15/2022, 3:41:16 PM

oren:

wait what the freak I have a password for that account saved but someone else owns it

7/15/2022, 3:42:27 PM

jeffalo:

spooky

7/15/2022, 6:22:11 PM

wynd:

Maybe you had it during dev.wasteof

7/16/2022, 6:58:04 PM

oren:

I wasn't on that version, I originally joined on wasteof2

7/16/2022, 7:17:06 PM

wynd:

Strange then

7/16/2022, 7:57:37 PM

Is there a character limit on /chat? How much is it?

Noticed since my bot can no longer send its command list (600 chars)

jeffalo:

dont think there is one. i’ll check.

7/15/2022, 10:04:52 AM

jeffalo:

never mind, there is a 500 character limit.

7/15/2022, 10:05:14 AM

quantum-codes:

Oh okay thx. I dont think it was there before

7/15/2022, 10:49:41 AM

If I change my username can you reverify me pls?

jeffalo:

yes

7/15/2022, 6:27:06 AM

oren:

thx

7/15/2022, 12:44:45 PM

wasteof suggestion: using italics inside a quote should remove the existing italics

grippins:

Currently using italics inside a quote does nothing.

7/15/2022, 8:12:41 PM

also why can't i see when people are online (beta)

jeffalo:

because i haven’t implemented that feature yet

7/14/2022, 8:11:10 PM

nebulous:

can you add it then

7/15/2022, 8:30:10 AM

can we have an api endpoint that shows the latest user that joined

jeffalo:

no
