As for forcing it to misbehave, not really, it happens at random. It often happens when I'm replying to a post (where the page doesn't scroll up which means I can't see what I'm typing).

Then I check my reply and often Google has done an autocorrect on me which means I have to edit, and correct my reply.

The red font with yellow underline appears at this stage. I've had the red font on other occasions but it's not frequent.

So it goes like this, if the screen doesn't scroll, then edit will go red font, guaranteed. But, getting a red font doesn't just happen with the window not scrolling.
Ok I think I figured out how to make it happen, its happening when the app is closed, and you get a push notification and tap that to open the app and view the post/thread. Then if you try to use the drop down the red/yellow occurs.

Ok now to work on the fix…

Ok I have released version 5.2.34 with the above recent fixes 👍 (… I hope!)

I also added a new feature where you can go to the next page in a thread by pulling the screen up when you reach the end of a page.

Try it out and see if you like it and it works for you all, its experimental for now

I'm in the notifications section, open the notification, and then press back button, it takes me straight to the news page. Shouldnt it take me to the notifications section main window?
Or if I press the notifications button, it should do the same (open main window of the section)

Is this for a notification that you clicked on from a push notification and opened the app that way, or were you already in the notification page and clicked to open a thread?

Android button on the phone (Samsung, Android 11). It behaves the same when I open the thread directly from the notification.

There's an arrow on top left hand side of the page to go back within the notifications. The Android back button on the bottom left hand side takes you back to, what I'd call, the root directory which is the news page

Ok this was a great report. I believe I’ve fixed the issue and it revealed some larger issues we had with push notifications, which I’ve also fixed.

Tapping on push notifications when the app is closed should be much improved for taking you directly to the notification (for example opening a post or PM).

I’ve just released version 5.2.35 which contains the new fixes, let me know if its still not working for you

I know about that. But is that the desired behavior for the Android button ? Looks like developers agreed with me, that it's not.

I believe it's fixed, at least for the part I reported (Android back button now takes you back to the notifications section)
Good job!

Hi, I just released version 5.2.36 which tries to clear memory a lot faster then before. Maybe this has to do with what you mentioned, as I think you are saying performance gets worse over time? The more you use it the worse performance gets correct?

Try 5.2.36 and see if it improves performance for you at all?

It's worse I really need to download an app and make a screen recording. Samsung removed the native option.

I'm no longer helping push notifications even though it's selected in my app and shows as active

I recently made some changes with push but was hoping it didn’t affect anyone. Maybe it did. You could try to either click on repair push notification option or just turn push off and then turn it on again and see if it helps?

When opening this thread from the news page, it remains open for a few seconds and then the app crashes, without any warning or information. Tried it numerous times. Didn't noticed this anywhere else.

I’ve never seen more images in a single thread before. So I think that’s the reason. Maybe your device is running out of memory in some way. My Samsung S20 is doing great with it, but I’m going to investigate this some more.

How are your other issues doing with the endlessly loading circles, are they now resolved after yesterdays update?

It's back to how it was, so better. You might be right about my phone. It's sometimes very laggy, which wasn't the issue before. Although it says the I have plenty of memory (both of them).
