I help run a messageboard for people affected by a neurodegenerative disease that is powered by Discourse. I keep the software up to date by following the security list at Commit search results · GitHub and updating whenever there is security issue. However this has the unintended side effect of loc…

That really is unfortunate then but with Apple not surprising. I recall Microsoft tried something similar back in Windows 95 by limiting 3rdparty browser performance(well maybe not quite the same) back during Netscape€Now known as Mozilla Firefox). MS was slapped hard for it in courts and by web d…

It wouldn’t be ideal. but could an idea like using some kind if Website browser be used as a go between? Kind of like how ppl use Tor? As maybe a compatibility layer in this case?

Apple require all browsers on iOS to use Apple WebKit. I would guess that Discourse source could be adjusted to allow login yet still make it read only (since that appears to be required to prevent things appearing in the browser that it would not be able to handle).

Really too bad Apple has designs to force there customers to upgrade. Android can be a pain at times but there are options available. Glad I never got sucked into i device eco system. And likely too much hassle for users in this case to try snd install a linux os on there aging devices. As Apple…

Well, the backward compatibility issue is quite often discussed and and is no go. Read only with limited functionality is only what Discourse offers when browsers/OS is passed end of life/support. If someone can code such layer that’s fine but I’m totally sure CDCK doesn’t support it. It is a bit l…

@codev what are the minimum browser requirements for “full featured,” currently? (Sorry I’m not sure where this is posted/published)

Well, now that we have the official ‘bag on Apple’ and how ‘they’re the worst’ portion of the thread illustrated, I’m curious about what the policy is for supported backward compatibility. Most if not all product teams publish their policy for backward compatibility, and some are more generous than…

Probably you can code a very dumbed down version of ui that allows log in, DMs and probably replying via discourse API and serve that from a different subdomain (or from the same finding, with some clever nginx rules?) This way you still have very basic functionality for old devices and stay up to …

Ok I found this (regarding my question) [изображение] What is Discourse? Discourse is the 100% open source discussion platform built for the next decade of the Internet. “Discourse is designed for the next 10 years of the Internet, so the minimum browser re…

Hi @codev , I wish I could welcome you to our community under better circumstances. I’m afraid my words are going to sound rather hollow in response, but I do understand the frustration you’re feeling. There is a problem inherent to the process of software evolution, and people often say “Your sof…

@codev какие сейчас минимальные требования к браузеру для «полного функционала»? (Извините, я не уверен, где это опубликовано)
