If you go to a member's page - as if to message them (if one can figure out how to do it) there is a toolbar
at the top of the message composition page. It has an image button. Clicking on this brings forth a small
thin, rectangular blank window which has no apparent purpose that I can see. However, if this image
button were to someday function, that would be a fine thing. And also... if you took this fully functional
toolbar and put it atop the 'post to a topic in the listener's forum page', well, shazam! One might have all
sorts of agreeable interactions!
Looks like you might be messinâ where you ought not be. Do not push that image button under any circumstance. You do love kittens, right?

On the Artist and Album pages, can you sort the list of albums by release date instead of the internal database ID? Some people might also like an option to sort by album name, but release date is good enough for me.
I'm not quite sure what you mean. Some pages if bookmarked trigger auto play. But they require some audio permissions to be enabled in the browser. Might be related to that.
It isn't keeping up with what's actually playing. As of right now it has stopped at The Beat by Elvis Costello at 12:01pm.
Their might be an issue with the most recent Android update. I'll have to look into this.
But in general battery optimization is the first thing to try disabling on apps having issues.
As it has been the cause of all sorts of quirky behavior since it was introduced.
The media player uses Android 9 and no battery, my phone has 13, so it is not a recent Android version or a battery problem. Since the web player on those devices plays without any problems, it is not network related. Seems the Android player is sensitive to small hickups/caches less and waits long to resume.
A pity, I stopped using it, the images are beautiful, the webplayer is not so nice to look at , but the music is fine!

Are you aware that the link for "Empire" by Bomb the Bass with Sinead O'Connor goes to the current song that's playing, rather than the correct song? Great when this song is actually playing, but not so much when it's not. :-) Thanks for all the great music!
Yes, sort of. It's on the todo list. Songs with a / in the name don't navigate as intended.

Indeed, the original song release date or at least year should be the most prominently displayed info, as it currently still is in the song listing, and as it has been on the song pages as far as I can remember before the recent redesign (look at the legacy website, it still shows 1973). The particular release date, if available, could also be displayed to help listeners figure out why for instance the version of Tubular Bells I last heard on RP sounds weird, because it seems to have been replaced by some re-issue where Oldfield fiddled with the knobs.
I'm not a fan of anyone fiddling with "the knobs" except myself, either...
Other than this, industry rights & regs may be involved - which definitely tend to screw a scientific / historical approach, as we (sometimes suffocatingly) live in a free-market world, where even rice - the world's no. 1 food supplement - can be traded so a world majority may suffer from free and open trade to the point of starvation, while farmers are dependent on stock markets.
For us elders, yes. Maybe not to an alien consumer from outer-space, though.
In the end, I guess it is a DJs choice to date an album-release. And for simplicity, it is accepted across the industry (which is still eager selling their releases). As for historical accuracy, that's a different thing, an original release date should be mentioned somewhere, imo.

I suspect there's a volunteer position available, checking and correcting metadata on 30,000 songs.
Yes but many tracks on RP show the reissue date. It can be confusing, I agree, but the wikipedia link is right there so if it's important we can look there. Usually the error is off by decades so it's obvious that something's not right...
