Sure, but that's also the #1 excuse people use when they don't want to do something. Everyone has the time, it's just a matter of priority. I'd be curious to see what a poll says rather than assume what people want or don't want. Because, this site is supposed to be about the people.
I mean, clearly we'll never agree, but this feature would've saved the soapbox. And who doesn't love a good argument to drive you up a wall?

Suggest a poll in the weekly survey...

I don't really think so, there were people that liked and wanted to have a verbal fight.

And yeah, I do realize CP probably has a limited staff. But if we're being honest, this site (on the FE side at least) hasn't been updated in over a decade. So, you know...

Are you sure we are speaking about the same CP? Because I have noticed quite a bunch of changes and new features and not even needing to go back 10 years.

I look forward to Daily News when I get up in the morning and go through my inbox. Today, when I clicked on the entry to read "Daily News - The state of WebAssembly 2022 and 2023", my email reader presented me with a blank white page.
My next option when a reading problem like this comes up is to use a button in my email reader to send the entire message to my browser. I did that, and I saw another blank white page.
My next option is to view the pages source using the browser. From that, I can see that there is considerable source, so you haven't sent me a blank page. I guess that's something. I have yet to analyze the page, and I'd rather not do it. But I think you should know that something broke since yesterday (Jan 30, 2023), and I'd appreciate it if you could fix it and re-sent today's Daily News.
Thank you.

The link worked fine for me. It'll go through the CodeProject news link tracker, then forwards on to the 3rd party URL.

Interesting. Oh well. Since the email address used is a gmail address, I was able to log into the gmail account from a browser, and the trash folder had the specific Daily News in it, and it was readable. I put it in a folder there marked 'archive'. Then I forwarded a copy of it to my outlook.com email address. I was able to look at it at outlook.com via browser, so that was a good sign. I then switched to my pop3 client and I was able to download and view the forwarded Daily News message.
It had not occurred to me to search the trashcan on gmail in this manner, but now that it's happened once with success, I'll keep this in my strategies. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Your not going to like my answer. But it is Eudora 7.1.0.9, with the update from the Hermes group who recently produced a way to put in TLS1.2 compliance, and proper handling of certificates. There are many possible candidates for a replacement email client, but I haven't found one yet that I'm willing to try, and I have 20 years worth of email in over 400 email folders within Eudora that I preserve. The junk and spam I delete, but I have my own reasons for saving things that way.
The Hermes Group was established to take on the job of updating Eudora with the Computer History Museum's release of the Eudora source code to the public. Right away a difficulty arose in that the source required some 3rd party libraries that are neither free, nor open source, and not particularly available any longer. That seems to have caused a huge slowdown in the project of producing a new replacement. I've read that they have a version that compiles, but is unstable. Before they got started on actual work, I was one person they contacted to work on the new project. I declined as I had just started a new, large project and didn't consider myself 'available'. I still have a time constraint, and am not yet available. And my work flow at present time is not very efficient.
Please forgive the boldface, but it is easier on my eyes.
Regards,
Steve Tabler

So sounds like an email client problem and not an email problem.
Myself I use a small email service which is browser based. So with years of Firefox (10 at least) and maybe a couple with Chrome I have not had a problem like you describe.
I doubt they want to attempt to support every email client themselves. And especially not variations like you mentioned. But there might be something in the page which you might find which they can easily restrict, if you identify it for them.

another example of an existing bug that has been reported a few times already. this time in the Lounge.
This happens when a parent thread is reported and removed through reporting but child threads/replies still remain.
Edit: and then when a user adds a new post, it become the parent thread to the orphaned child threads.
Edit 2: Griff has advised that it appears to be the new parent thread but it really is not.

It doesn't become the parent, it just looks that way. If you hover the mouse, the "parent line" that appears points above the visual parent.

Indentation style (always good for an argument) ...

Hey Chris, Did you fix the automated process yet? I updated a lot of code with my article today and the
<spans> around the comments are back.
I expect that you don't want to update the article and remove these everytime i post an update 
Thanks

As the subject states, I would like to suggest a separate area for Wordles and, possibly, puzzles in general. What do y'all think?
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

Good point - better to have it separate than in Discussions.
|
|
|
|

Yeah, its getting crazy in the Lounge now with all the bloody wordle crap and CCCs. agreed.
then again, a Lounge anywhere in the world is where retired and bored people go to drink cheap booze, play puzzles, and think about days of old.
I highly doubt Chris will move on this.
|
|
|
|

but, take out the wordle's and CCC's, and Oi's, and detailed technical daily blogs ... what is left ?
