Post Whenever got a few of quality of life improvements.

But first, a distraction. On a side tangent, Submatrix now has a Luanti server. It's basically an open source minecraft. We are setup with the Asuna variant of the game. Simply join the asuna.submatrix.net server with your client.

Back to Post Whenever improvements.

The most basic improvement is that the delete button now works! But besides that four more buttons were added. They allow you to move items around. Up one, down one, to the top, or to the bottom.

When new items are added to the whenever queue, their natural order is the order they were added in. Pretty reasonable. Sliders let you pick if items are posted from your queue in FIFO, LIFO, or random order, and you can select a mix if you want. But that did not allow you to retroactively prioritize a specific item. Now it is easy to push an item to one side of the stack or another, thus prioritizing it or de-prioritizing it.

Let me know what other features you want.

Buy why Post Whenever? A rant for those interested.

There may be some people viewing this from outside our site. Post whenever is an option that defers to the website to post the item as part of a delayed stream; A trickle of content over time. Part of the motivation is to add one more tool that encourages elevating the site above exclusively taking an interest in politics. Politics is the low hanging fruit that always gives us something to react to and be angry about. So what's better than politics? A lot of things. Almost everything. But somehow in a politically inundated world it can be hard to always think of something better. It is the point of the analogy that low hanging fruit is easier to come across and propagate than more elevated fruit. So when something better than politics comes around of course we want the link. And in fact we'll take more than one link when we can get it, if the poster is kind and has the patience to post more than one. In fact, if you have more of a genuinely good thing than can reasonably be consumed at once, we still want all of it. We don't demand it, but we are going to build the resources to capture a windfall of amazing content, if you would otherwise be worried about sliding the site.. Why post one XKCD when you could post all 3323 of them? Or some reasonable number. Then when inspiration for what is the best content comes, we can get a substantial stream of it over time instead of a flash in the pan.

We especially want to attract people who are aware of and appreciate things that are better than politics. So if you are someone who can instantly think of a handful things better than politics, should be easy for most, we'd love your contributions.
