Dear AppleVis Community,

As our non-Apple forums continue to grow in popularity, I wanted to take a moment to make a request that I hope will improve the experience for everyone.

When we created our non-Apple forums in 2024, we wanted a dedicated place for people to be able to share their expertise and discuss other technologies besides Apple. Our non-Apple forums have proven very popular, and we are honored that people are choosing to have these conversations on AppleVis.

What would be the chance of adding the ability to post audio clips to the forum?

I'd like a platform where I could share blind coding audio clips with the community, and I think this would be a perfect place to do it.

On the homepage, under the recent post list, I'd like AppleVis to inplement a way to preview posts as the post title doesn't always say enough. Without having to open the post, I'd like to see 2 or 3 lines of the post body, so one could always get a general idea of how it starts. Thank you!

Would it be possible to add the Subscribe option to podcast threads as per other pages like blog or forum posts? Sometimes they provoke interesting discussions and it would be nice to be able to get notifications of replies.

Thanks!

Hi,
First of, I hope that this is the right place to open the discussion about the following topic:
Has anyone else noticed that the timestaps for forum posts on AppleVis constantly change? Let's say I have posted at 1AM, 1 day later, the timestamp says 2:33PM or something similar.
Is this a known issue?
