I lost several days of work thanks to BTSync doing something similar. Closed source and buggy; an awful mix.

It's a damn shame because it's so close to being the perfect solution for the problem of Dropbox.

You receive negative sublevels for mentioning people, what's the rational behind this?

I believe it is to encourage the use of the reply function, like a back and forth conversation rather than shouting across a room.

"Standardising" Markdown and they didn't fix the dumbest thing about it. *strong* _em_ makes so much more sense than **strong** *em* __strong__ _em_

is Quora worth the time investment of getting to? Their pages always seem so messy when landing from Google.

It's just Expertsexchange 2.0 at this point. No point joining communities that treat users with such contempt from the get go.

How long ago did Pintrest become a walled garden? Try viewing a board without an account. I never had an account there but this isn't convincing me it's a good idea to get one. "Onboarding"

I was considering BTSync for database replication and backup, but not anymore.

It was working fine for many months, I might be an edge case 95gb sync and 25000+ files

Good thing it has a clock on it, because my computer doesn't have one.

Actually had BTSync get confused and delete files I haven't touched in over a week twice now, folder full of several hundred images and it keeps deleting the odd file out of it. I never would have noticed if they were not an image sequence. Into the trash you go BTSync.

It's seems like every .com domain name is taken so moving on to other TLDs. Wonder if .ly or .io is less confusing to the general public.
Aabbaabbaa
The general public are confused by domains anyway, as long as Google finds you it doesn't matter so much.

Support for web apps is broken in iOS either way. If "apple-mobile-web-app-capable" is used, then static files aren't updated when changed.

@lucian It might be better if Explore > Recent showed all recent posts not just ones with replies. It's too similar to Trending/Today at the moment and would help with starting conversations.

Would love to see this implemented!
Tyler Deitz
Yeah. I can see that only showing res with reres (lol) is a good way to filter for quality, but that's what the trending page is for.
Dave Walk
+1. Recent seems to often be posts from someone with a lot of followers because they have a better chance of getting a reply or direct @s to someone. It would be sweet if Recent was some combination of all new posts with posts with res bubbling up to the top a little bit and staying around longer. More complex but more effective for new conversations.
