    1. Tildes User Script: Drag and drop usernames in order to mention them in your comments

      It is was a tedious task to mention users: copy, type, paste. This script makes it a single step: drag and drop any username on to the comment you're composing, and tada! It's there.

      Here is the script:

      // ==UserScript==
      // @name     tildesDragNDropUsernameForMention
      // @version  1
      // @grant    none
      // @namespace   tildes.net
      // ==/UserScript==
      
      var userLinks = document.querySelectorAll('a.link-user');
      
      var dragstartHandler = function (event) {
        var text = event.target.innerText;
        if(!text.startsWith('@')){
          text = "@" + text;
        }
        event.dataTransfer.setData("text", text);
        event.dataTransfer.dropEffect = 'copy';
      }
      
      userLinks.forEach(function (each) {
        each.setAttribute('draggable', true);
        each.ondragstart = dragstartHandler;
      });
      

      Patches welcome!

      Edit: remove useless code

    2. Combining searches and filters

      The lack of ability to combine search functions on Tildes is becoming more and more of a pain point for me. I can filter for one tag or search for one word, but that's it. I can't narrow the search in any way. I can't combine searches and filters and groups:

      • I can't search for a word within a group.

      • I can't search for a word within a set of topics filtered by a tag.

      • I can't filter by two separate tags at the same time.

      • I can't search for two separate words at the same time.

      As Tildes is growing larger, the ability to search better is becoming more necessary.

      Is there any possibility of bringing forward the work on searches so that some of these combinations can be enabled?

    3. Budget smartphones - apparently there are good options. Opinions and recommendations?

      I just picked up a Nokia 3.1 for $120 in a bit of an emergency and I really like it. It's very light, Android One, very nice styling and again it's $120! I was shocked by this experience at this...

      I just picked up a Nokia 3.1 for $120 in a bit of an emergency and I really like it. It's very light, Android One, very nice styling and again it's $120!

      I was shocked by this experience at this price point. This thing is excellent for my use case, as a pre-paid EU phone as my lovely iPhone 6s Plus has only one Sim slot. Are there any other great budget phones out there?
