The position of Jeff, who is our product manager and makes the call about this stuff, is that we can not invest any development time here making this a theme component or making it optional.
I guess that is option (3) out of my 2 options ;).
Your best shot here if you really really want this on your community is to make a marketplace topic and ask someone from the community to build a theme component, it is not a huge task, probably only a few hours of work. It is technically doable in a theme component if you wish.
It’s strange, it used to work for me in Firefox for Android.
But now at each session it asks me if I agree to allow vibrations.
Whether I say yes or no:
I get no vibrations
Next time I close and open Firefox for Android, it will ask me again
But it used to work at some point. Am I the only one like this?
Redmi 7.
Android 9.
Firefox for Android version 68.7.0, no newer versions are available at the moment.
I do have so called haptic feedback (vibrations) on keyboard and on link long press.
But no longer on those heart clicks (even if I try with highest vibration strength).
this seems to be the case for me as well ( moto e4, android 7.1.1, firefox 68.7.0 ) and it has been since this was introduced over on boingboing.
my phone has also been hanging quite a lot lately, and it seems most prone to do so when the vibrate notification popup happens. it’s as if its somehow eating a lot of resources, or sitting in some tight loop.
it’s fine if not much else is going on on my phone, but if i have a bunch of tabs open or other apps – then it’s almost inevitable that i click a “like”, the popup starts to happen, and my phone hangs. ( has happened twice today; reboot required. )
i’ve looked for settings to disable it permanently ( in my user profile ) but haven’t found anything.
I’ll help with this! It’s super annoying. I don’t want vibrate, but much worse, it prompts me several times a day, and I keep having to say “Don’t Allow”! Terrible for users that don’t want it. Where’s the option to avoid that prompt?
but, yeah – while i have gotten a couple of hangs at other times, the popup hang has been relatively consistent. ( it doesn’t happen every time, but often enough. )
tentatively, things seem more stable now that i’ve turned off all lock screen notifications for firefox. so maybe it’s some interaction with moto’s system ui and firefox, and not anything specific to discourse’s interaction with firefox.
I am on Android 10 and latest Chrome (Pixel XL). I believe i have all sounds and vibrations disabled in system settings. How do i disable vibrate on likes on Discourse forums?
As a user this is a bit discouraging. I have an android 7 (I know, old phone) and I have haptic feedback disabled for the whole device. But for some reason the nanowrimo app (which is allegedly a progressive web app that connects to the discourse forums for nano) has haptic feedback on likes. It shouldn’t be able to turn it back on when I have it off for the whole device. Was any progress ever made on this?
Je suis sur Android 9, Firefox pour Android 68.11.0* depuis sa sortie.
Je n’ai pas eu cette fenêtre contextuelle de confirmation pendant si longtemps.
Mais au cours de la dernière semaine environ, je l’ai eue à nouveau cette fenêtre contextuelle deux fois :
Mise à jour : J’essaie maintenant Android 5.0.2, Firefox pour Android 68.2.1 et les résultats sont les mêmes qu’avec la version 68.11.0 :
J’ai de nouveau cette fenêtre contextuelle…
sur meta.discourse.org et try.discourse.orgDiscourse 2.8.0.beta8 - https://github.com/discourse/discourse version b86127ad123ce4eede7bc861134f32d9312128d2
mais pas (encore) sur community.metabrainz.orgDiscourse 2.7.10 - https://github.com/discourse/discourse version 626a0e207eff622296a3728002b7f6f2eb33c7c0
Donc, cela pourrait être dû à un changement récent, en effet.
* Je dois conserver cette version car c’est la dernière à prendre en charge les scripts utilisateur via des modules complémentaires/extensions comme Violentmonkey et je n’ai pas besoin d’Internet sans mes scripts utilisateur.
