Media Scroller Feedback!
Hey patrons, I've made a ton of tweaks to the media scroller and hopefully caught most issues that mobile and desktop were having. I also added mute buttons and made the volume settings a bit easier to use (was too small before for mobile).
How are things working for everyone now? Any major issues that you are still experiencing? Leave a comment below and I'll try to address the remaining problems.
PS: I'm still working on validating valid tags within the settings page so you won't ever get back blank results but that is on its way.

Media scroller was working better but as of the past couple of days the entire page bugs out and freezes to the point where you have to close the entire page/tab and re-visit. Don’t know if anyone else is experiencing this, but I have made sure to keep the number of subreddits under 10 as recommended before.
I just pushed an update for how I handle media, not sure if this fixes this specific issue but give it a shot and let me know!
I'm not sure how difficult it would be but I'd love to see a way to edit how long still images are displayed.
Hey! Currently the autoscroll has three speed settings, slow, normal and fast, is that what you were thinking of?
Is there a way to use both local media + subreddits? If not, is that a planned feature? It would be nice to be able to use both instead of one or the other.
Not right now but I'll create a ticket!
But compared to having nothing load earlier in the week it’s much improved.
Content is loading better but still somewhat delayed. The main thing is that it doesn’t want to auto play so I keep having to manually hit a play button on each clip/slide.
This is the one remaining bug that I really have to resolve. Basically you can't autoplay with sound on mobile unless the user interacts with the page. BUT the user has interacted with the page so I'm still a bit confused whats going on. I'll keep working on a fix though,.
Also videos would load but idk if it’s the websites problem but there’s some without volume at all
Some videos probably just don't have an audio stream, kind of like a gif. If it were ALL videos without audio that would probably be a different issue haha.
I'm having issues with content not loading. I'm on MacOS and at first nothing would load at all except pictures and now about halfway through it will just stop loading new images/video.
Hey Tomms, which tags are you using? I'll try and recreate it on my end.
