Number alignment & thousands separators
by orchids in community feedback on mar 13, 2023
yes this seems reasonable!
FWIW, the forum landing pages are some of my least favorite, design-wise, so I expect that i'll be pushing out a redesign as the next major thing i spend my time on. there's a lot of whitespace that we could use for more meaningful ...
Allow posting from the preview page
by orchids in community feedback on mar 12, 2023

what email providers do you use/suggest?
by orchids in software on mar 11, 2023

eventually, but not at the moment. my main issue is that i'd like to retain some privacy and not expose myself to the public - i could publish the code on a separate GitHub account, but the issue there is that i'd probably have to clear the entire git ...
