Hi @jeremy
I’ve noticed for the past month or so, every day when I receive the OMAAT email I can hardly read it because the font is so small.
I have an iPhone pro Max (so a fairly big screen) but to be able to read the email I need to turn my phone on its side (landscape mode).
I’m attaching a screenshot.
It seems to push all of the headlines onto the one line so it squashes the text to fit.
Is there a way to fix this so it’s easier to read? Or is it a setting I might have on my phone (although I don’t have this issue with any other email)
thanks
Not sure if you changed something in my emails @jeremy but the emails the last 2 days have rendered normally and pushed the headlines across multiple rows. So much easier to read. Thank you.
Something strange is going on with the site. The first time I thought it was a fluke, but it happened again. When I log in and comment on an article, I see my comment in the comments section. However, if I am not logged in, my prior comment is not there and the counter for the number of comments does not include my comment. Is this the way the site is supposed to work? Do others see my comment when they log in? For example, in the AMEX Hilton Surpass article, when I log in, I see four comments including mine, but if I log out and look again, my comment has disappeared and the counter shows only three comments.
@dsk - thanks for checking in. This should be a caching issue related to your logged-in/logged-out sessions. If you clear your cache while not logged in, you'll see all of the comments.
That said, we are looking to change this functionality to ensure the comment section is always fresh. That should be bundled in with a release in the next week or two.
This sentence only got half updated for November- have to change September to October.
October Competition
In September, standout community contributors will earn a bonus. Winners will be announced the first week in November.
We've got some site changes that rolled out this morning. Most of these are based on reader feedback and quality-of-life improvements. If you experience any issues or have feedback, let me know! The next feature set will go out mid-November.
Here's a quick overview of what changed today:
- The most noticeable change will be a shift in the ad experience, particularly on desktop and in the comments section.
- Mobile tables are reader-friendly on mobile
- Ability to save posts to your user profile. Saved posts can be found under notifications -> posts you've saved
- Ability to set a default order for comments in your user profile under settings
@jeremy Guys i’ve noticed my iphone safari browser is struggling with some bugs since yalls latest update. The home page and article pages will frequently freeze, forcing me to shut down Safari completely and revisit the site. sometimes it freezes when I try to add a comment, etc…. it seems to be an issue sitewide, but I’m not having the same issue on any other site. It definitely has only started happening since the latest changes were implemented a week or so ago.

@foulowl a couple of questions:
What iOS version and iPhone model are you using?
Do you have any other browsers on your phone that you use / could use (to test)?
Are you accessing the site typically over a cellular 4G/5G connection or LAN/WiFi?
Appreciate the info here -- we'll get to the bottom of this.
@foulowl thanks again for reporting. This one took us a minute to pin down - it wasn't related to the release, just unfortunate timing. It should be all sorted for you now, but let us know if you still have any issues.
Here's one - When I changed the newest/oldest comment display on settings, it also deleted the picture chosen. So you have to then re-upload your profile picture.
@peter_ This is a good find, thanks. I have a patch for this going out on Monday. We're going to need to get you a fire reporting badge.
Feature request: Index of reviews. Currently have to click through multiple pages to reach a specific airline review e.g. and search function gives all mentions of the airline, not just reviews.
