Never again.
Don't use reddit.
Make sure to leave a bad review in the app store and then uninstall it.
Beside the obvious don't reddit, it happens alot in the kbin (web app) and lemmy apps too.
I've taken to stopping to randomly copy my comments to the clipboard, or if it's an extra long response, writing it in a different app and then copy pasting it.
I was gonna say... With Lemmy it's more likely that it'll just fail to post comment, but I'm willing to deal with that as the fediverse grows. Devs are working hard to smooth things out so I'm ok with a bit of jank here. Fuck reddit though.
It happens in kbin a lot, but IME if you go back your comment is invariably still there in the text box ready for you to post it.
I’ve had this happen on kbin quite a few times as well, but even if it redirects to a new page with an error message, it always saves the text in the input field. Haven’t lost a single letter once.
Does it work differently for you? At what point does it lose some of your content?
I miss Apollo.
Me too buddy.
Once I start spending 20 minutes on social media responses I delete the app anyway.
Sounds like very dramatic pooping.
Time to leave then
Not to rub it in, but here’s my response using the memmy app. (To be fair, I’ve read the development version has been a little crashy of late, but the app store version has been stable af so far in my experience.)
RIF would save the message even if I reboot my phone
Eh, Kbin regularly logs me out when I try to post and then I get chucked back to somewhere completely different.
