META: site update? Press the button?
I too have a button. Expect mine is much bigger and more powerful, and my button works!

Lol. I’m a republican and I enjoyed this.
You’re a teacher; how can you be republican? /s
Funny shit +1
charter school
Worse pay, longer hours, no union protection. Sign me up!
I know.. more of a moderate, if that’s even a thing anymore. I find myself on the left for a few things.
Oligarchlican branch of the GOP?
Even on dragons!
Sometimes I rewatch season 7 when I’m sad. Makes me feel better.
In before snarky comment and thread lock!
Eh, the last few times this was asked the mods gave an update on the progress and left the post up. I thought it was worth asking because last time it came up it seemed like the upgrade was imminent... yet here we are.
It was Seth that was giving an update , but he’s pretty much a mod too
Not worried since I only use the app. Given how long the new site is taking the app should be a few years down the road.
I just wish they would bring he HD app back. It was 100% better than the official one.
Id rather have the HD app back than a new site. That’s how bad the original app is.
Really? You don’t like blank screens every time you try to reload? Or the archaic user interface? Or the inability to create posts? Or the lack of push notifications? Or...
my work phone is an iPhone, so I installed the app just for comparison to the Android app. Holy Hell. I don't know how you Apple people live with that interface.
It’s terrible. Very very bad.
Agree wholeheartedly. I engaged with the site (both app and web) much more when the iOS HD app existed. I hate the current app so much I deleted it off my phone. And now visit the site much, much less frequently than I used to.
I would actually buy the HD app for like $20...that’s how bad current state is.
Can we do a kickstarter for this or something?
...that any new design would be responsive through the phone or tablets web browser and won’t require a dedicated app...
When Brian killed HD, he said he gave every opportunity for the developer to save it and keep it active. But they couldn't work something out. Don't know the details, but I'll give some credit to, at least, trying. Because yeah, the site app sucks. Though I'm posting on it now, it rarely actually posts the post for me.
Well, I hope no one was asking the mods because we're as in the dark on this question as everyone else, or at least I am anyway. I am sure Brian or Seth will eventually ring in, if not in this thread then in one of the next few.
I just hope I still have the ability to delete my own shitposting, because that above everything else is the ability that I enjoy the most.
I think it was seth. Sorry for the mom misattribution
Besides you, who else mods?
There are several people that have retained their powers and occasionally even exercise them, but those are folks that are overall far less active here than I tend to be.
It's part of what makes me chuckle whenever someone asks for moderator action on something and I don't see it for days because....well.....I guess it was missed. After all, I only read a "statistically significant" sample of posts.
Has been rewarded mod powers as our token of appreciation
Is an app update planned or just the site?
I posted this same info with a specific date in a post yesterday. Brian said the new site was a few weeks away on April 13th and then a few weeks later Seth indicated it was a flip of a switch and ........ nothing.
Well, a “Few weeks” is subjective I guess
Few weeks, few months..who’s counting?
Whatever it takes.
Aslan calls all times "soon"
Mr. Mom.
here, I’ll be at the gym or gun club.

...a day is 5882 hours. Perhaps the new servers are in Zoltan Mesko’s basement?
We are in limbo right now because everyone needs to be on hand when we launch, and one of the key guys just had a baby and I have been out of town. In the meantime we are doing some tweaks to the ads. Believe me I want to get going on this too but I need to be there for it, not working off my phone.
Thanks!
just bring the baby
So, does that mean more ads featuring barely-clothed man asses, or fewer?
No brief has look more uncomfortable to wear
1) I'm straight so I don't enjoy the naughty bits
2) Nobody--not even a drunk Mrs. Brimley-- wants to see my old ass in those underpants
So swing and a miss, Big Data
So, you all need to be there because you want to party together celebrating an event that has been long in the making? Or is it a situation where people need to be at their "stations" slowly turning on the power and activationg functions? /s
Regardless, when (if) this event happens and the new site launches, I may find religion.
them all with keys around their necks, leaning in to turn them simultaneously
"There for it"?
If only we had a world-wide network interconnecting billions of devices so that humans could coordinate and interact despite disparate geography, a sort of "Internet" if you will.
Hang on, I'm gonna call Al Gore and let him know about this idea.
