i know neocities is run by only one guy but considering how popular it's gotten i really wish kyle got some helpers. there are many bugs in the site that havent ever been fixed during my 3 years of NC. obviously one guy cant fix everything himself so i wish he just had people to help :/

i know there are plenty of neocities users that would be open to helping out, completely for free. i hope kyle sees this and considers it although i doubt it.

i know one bug that has been here since day one that people always complain about are the false flags in the neocities editor. it marks completely correct code as wrong. i personally dont use it but i know a lot of people do, and when i used it it annoyed the hell out of me.

there's also one that annoys me particularly is you cant unblock someone once you've blocked them. i remember blocking a pal of mine as a joke and it wont let me unblock them. clicking the "unblock" button does nothing

sometimes you can edit someone elses comment in a thread if you edit the original comment. it doesnt save, but idk why it does that

sometimes when typing a longer post it gets cut off and you cant scroll or anything. it just gets stuck. there's also another issue with the "edit", sometimes clicking edit brings up the editor box but you cant save it

sometimes if you delete your reply to your own thread, the ENTIRE thread gets deleted. like if i deleted *this* one, the entire thing would go poof. but im not going to test it to see if it got fixed o_o

SO many issues with the comment system. here's another one. sometimes when you click edit on a post it opens an editor to every reply at once even though you cant even edit replies

While this is all true, NC is open source and you can modify the code and submit the changes to Kyle on github and he does often merge them :P Also jlehr thats not true I have a bunch of iframes that do both!

oh yeah i totally forgot that was a thing you could go on github, melon. maybe someone experienced with bugfixing could fix these bugs... (i am programming illiterate)

a guy I was in a discoed server with paid for supporter and never got it. he tried to contact neocities but they didn’t respond. Neocities never responds to anything when you try to contact them anyway

A few days ago I was looking through the Neocities GitHub page seeing if I was able to fix any bugs but it turns out Neocities its painfully hard to run locally, I'm guessing because of this many developers turn away from helping with the Neocities project too... And they never reply to issues on their issues page. :/

Oh, and the service they use for site captures has been down for the past 3 weeks.
