Jarred (aka jarro) is working on that. I'm seeing some comments via email notifications, but not all of them evidently, since I didn't see yours.
The comment system is hosted by a third party company and we're still working out some kinks. Should be a very sweet system once we have it tweaked properly. In theory it will be a better fit for extended in-depth conversations than the forum.
"In theory it will be a better fit for extended in-depth conversations than the forum." Politely skeptical, yet appreciative of your hard work on this re-design/upgrade as well as your superlative DJing.
Ah, jeez. Paypal is the least-tested part of the new setup, since I can't test using our Paypal account. I'll investigate right away.
OK. Found the PayPal issue. Should be OK now.
Have I mentioned my loathing for PayPal lately? Nothing personal towards anyone who works there, or anyone who happily uses their service. They do a perfectly acceptable job at everything with the massive, glaring exception of their API and merchant tools. I have a huge list of things that I can do in seconds on Stripe and GoCardless (our other two main processors) that take long, painful hours with PayPal.
The payment system is the last part of our public web stuff that I'm personally responsible for coding & maintaining, and I am very much looking forward to handing that one off too. I'd much rather be a DJ! I'm so much better at that...
Gotta say that I sure like the new font we're using for the forum (& basically everything else). Very clean.
Hmm, I attempted to make a modest contribution via paypal.
First, the additional amount for the credit card fee didn't take.
Second, once I hit confirm on paypal, it took me back to the main Support RP page, with the payment options.
I confirmed my paypal account was not charged.

I´m missing the info about how often a song was played in the last 30 days and please change the backgroundcolours in the infoview. I find it hard to read .
That gray background on the info view has been the subject of many a discussion around here. I'm not quite happy with it yet. I like the look, but find it hard to read long blocks of text.
Each one of our channels will have a page that shows the most-played, and most recently added, songs for that channel — as well as a scrolling playlist history that goes back for as long as the channel has been around. We'll work on a way to access the plays-per-channel data from the song info pages, but the way we did it before isn't compatible with expanding our channel lineup.
Not sure if it's just me, but I can't scroll with the new site. Like, at all. Center mouse button doesn't work. Arrow keys don't work. Windows 10, Firefox 103.0.2.
Hmm, haven't done a side-by-side listening, and probably just the newness effect, but the flac stream sounds slightly better, wider soundstage?
The audio is the same on both sites.
We have made some audio quality improvements lately, mostly by updating a bunch of our older music files to better (in many cases high-resolution) masters. But that will be audible everywhere. Everywhere with good gear, anyway :-)
Not sure what happened with the blog comments. I suspect they're just temporarily MIA rather than lost. The system is copying me on all comments, so I've read them. Thanks for all of the kind words!
None of us here use Firefox — and these days you don't need to do the kind of cross-browser debugging that you once did — so we weren't aware of the Firefox scrolling issue. I'm sure it's an easy fix. Apologies to you FF partisans for not catching that, as we should have.
The mobile player still is not behaving properly. After starting it, tap the "i" icon for the most useful display. We'll have that sorted out by the end of the week, I suspect.
If you scroll to the bottom of the RAFT and click a topic there, the new page loads but is still also scrolled to the bottom. Be sure to scroll through Journalswhile you still have a chance ð³
Some great memories just looking at the names back when we started around here...Very cool!
