I had an exchange with some asshole about what belongs on a forum. Turns out the asshole was the mod, but I didn't know that until I logged onto the web.

Are there plans to include those tags in Voyager?

I think it'd be a nice feature, but to be honest, I'm not really sure you should be avoiding saying what you want to say, just because they're a mod.

    I generally agree with you on that point, but when it comes to a discussion about what the forum should be about, it's good to know that you're talking to a mod and not some random user.

    If someone is talking about your behavior, likewise, it would be good to know you're talking to a mod.

    If they enable the "Speak as Moderator" voice, their username turns green.

    this is black in voyager, but labelled M on the web. I'd like to know when I'm speaking to a mod regardless of their settings.

    Edit: Well, I guess that share link is bugged?

    If that's the case, I suggest Boost. Moderators have an [m] next to their name regardless.

    So do I just keep trying different programs until I find the one that meets all my requirements? Or maybe I just learn to program myself and build my own app? What is the point of this sub at all?

    You find what works, it may not necessarily have all your requirements.

    I go with Boost because it was my Reddit app before they killed it.

    There's 2, maybe 3 part time devs, it's not like there's a large team working on it. Firefox resources this ain't. Yes, either try different apps, contribute some code, or tolerate it until a dev gets around to your feature request (if ever). That's the nature of tiny FOSS apps.

    There's some smaller apps that have developers that are responsive to feedback and want to target as many requested features as possible. There's other developers that have a definite vision of what THEY want and don't really care about what random strangers want.

    Both are perfectly valid approaches, but since we're on a forum that can solicit FR, it would be good to know into which camp Voyager falls.
