    How do you get to the last post of a thread ? There used to be a LAST button.

    search doesn't work very well. e.g. "laugh" used to bring up the "laugh loose" thread. "poilievre running" used to bring up that thread. Even advanced search 'title' doesn't help.

    The new version doesn't seem to like carriage returns, particularly if 'pasted'. But continuous typing is more likely to work. And what's with the "zz0.tstyh5rjl1gzz" that keeps appearing?

    I did clear cache with Brave, and it's worse: now (with Brave) the QUOTE button doesn't work, and if I type anything with a [ QUOTE ] tag init, I get a 403 error. zz0.2hipbzidrwuzz

    The last few quotes I tried didn't work, but this one did just fine in Microsoft Edge. I'm not sure if prior attempts were in Brave or not.

    Perhaps I should have been more clear. Although Brave works fine with most every website in the world, including GunOwnersOfCanada for the past couple years; for the past 20 hours for me, using Brave with GunOwnersOfCanada has been giving me 403 errors. My first 403 error I assumed the website...

    Brave gives 403 errors more often than Microsoft Edge.

    There must be better examples of misleading charts. A lot of those are two data point charts -- which may as well be sentences. Choosing a small axis range is a good thing to show fine clarity, but the way it was used just to have a graphic was poor. Her comment about using two y axis is daft...

    Why graphs ? If one wants to lie, do it in a sentence. It's virtually impossible for a human being making an argument to choose anything but biased cherry picked data points in a sentence. If one wants to see the truth, show it in a multi-year graph. If one wants to be honest, don't cherry pick...

    I hope that if we get the punctuation fixed, we don't get a limit of 8000 chars per post. Which might happen with a software update. That happened on CGN, and it's annoying -- some of my lists/data, and virtually every news story of merit has to be split over multiple posts.

    I haven't seen warnings. But I'm running a VPN that filters some stuff, Brave browser that filters some more, UBlock Origin that filters some more, and only then a virus/etc checker.
