Not speaking as teamfortress.tv staff but please ask Enigma for permission before going any further with this.

No because they're not breaking any copyright. The only grey area with this app I think is that it uses the tftv logo (and maybe that it mentions tftv in the app name)

That said enigma is aware of it afaik. Pretty much the worst case would being asked to remove all tftv branding

- Loading a second page through infinite scrolling crashes immediately
- It'd be nice if the app kept track of which threads were read and up to which post
- It's impossible to jump to a page on a thread which is pretty much a necessity when opening threads like stream highlights
- The design could generally be improved by adding vertical space on lists, I think

What's the difference between Hot, Active, New and Top in Threads?

All written content on tftv is copyrighted, I doubt anything legal would come off it but it's at least polite to ask.

Reading copyrighted content is not breaking copyright. It's not polite to ask for permission to read the forum, which is its sole purpose. It's just stupid.

This isn't what I'm defending.

TwiiKuu- Loading a second page through infinite scrolling crashes immediately

That's only for some threads. I'll try and address the issue with those that aren't working.

TwiiKuu- It'd be nice if the app kept track of which threads were read and up to which post

Caching threads wouldn't be super hard. Could be done.

TwiiKuu- It's impossible to jump to a page on a thread which is pretty much a necessity when opening threads like stream highlights

Could be done. I'll probably implement caching in some capacity first. Maybe rework the way the list loads and allow you to jump to the last page and put buttons in the list to load pages in the middle.

TwiiKuu- The design could generally be improved by adding vertical space on lists, I think

Don't know what this means.

TwiiKuuWhat's the difference between Hot, Active, New and Top in Threads?

I think it's pretty self-explanatory, but that's also just how the threads page is organized. Ask enigma what it does.

I've asked. Enigma literally couldn't care less about what I do with this app.

boulderTwiiKuu- The design could generally be improved by adding vertical space on lists, I thinkDon't know what this means.

Take this for example,

This feels quite cramped, I'd suggest playing with padding/margins to add a little white space, a few pixels should do

I literally never noticed that top bar on the threads page, my bad

On another note, I'd love to be able to pick which page to load when opening the app (like Threads->Active)

I'll probably implement that if I add settings, I was planning on setting that to default but just haven't done that yet.

Update 7/5/2018:

This is a small change, but it should increase usability significantly. I finally fixed the issue where a comment with multiple quotes would crash the app. This should reduce the number of crashes on the app significantly, and restrict the crashes that occur to page download failures, and random null pointer exceptions. Quotes now look better too! It was a gracious two for one change. I noticed that I don't actually have any kind of error reporting on the app so I'll try and maybe implement that soon if it's easy. That should help me to identify bugs that users are experiencing.

I'll try to restrict bumping this thread to important updates from here on out.

Happy browsing!
