My wife just made her first contribution to our Mastodon fork. It's totally vibe-coded, but I'm still proud of her, because takes some understanding to give proper instructions for the issue, and it turned out to be an actual regression with a proper fix. @mustikkasoppa

Unrelated but "mapStateToProps" feels so 2015 React that it hurts my heart😅

I reported this issue 5 days ago, but so far no PR was made to fix it upstream.

There's also a problem with emojis returned by typing its shortcut being different from the ones returned by searching after clicking the emoji button. Also no answer so far...

@cadusilva I just noticed your issue after going through the change history and related problems. I was about to submit an issue myself. I'm a bit hesitant to send direct PRs nowadays since they usually reject contributions from outsiders unless there's prior discussion or decisions. @mustikkasoppa

@cadusilva I get the control side of it, it helps maintain sound quality. But I still wish repos had more flexible triage. @mustikkasoppa

@cadusilva We're always happy to merge bugfix PRs. It's more complex for PRs affecting UX, but even those are not rejected categorically.

@diondiondion @cadusilva OK, good to know. In January, ClearlyClaire said:

"Hi, and thank you for your contribution!
However, as described in CONTRIBUTING.md, we have internal design processes and generally do not accept external contributions without prior discussion on the design."

This kind of discouraged me from sending PRs anymore, because it sounded like PRs weren't welcome and that I should have opened an issue instead. Maybe I'm just being oversensitive.

But yeah, I do have some other PRs merged, this one was just an exception.

a user just reported that it's impossible to create polls.

I poked around and could confirm that this happens only after commit 076c8ec.

Another bug introduced by the same update, to make company for the translation link problem.

Just reported to the dev team:

:github: github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i…

I reverted the entire problematic commit as a temporary fix while they sort this out.

Now both the polls and the translation link are back..

is your instance also affected? Once you start typing inside the field for the first alternative, the field for the second one disappears instantly.

I think I'm going to quickly update with those 13 commits, since the main I got had quite a few bugs...
