    • Allow notifications when a post is edited

      Currently, we can receive notifications when:

      1. A watched thread gets a new post (All regular users)
      2. A post gets flagged (Moderators)

      However, I couldn't find a way to way to enable notifications when one these posts gets edited.

      Use Cases

      1. When a post is edited to add new content, the topic's watchers might want to know.
      2. When a spammer edits an existing post to insert a spam link, the moderators probably want to know.

      Optional Functionality

      To prevent this from getting too noisy, we could have:

      • The ability to opt in/out of edit notifications
      • "Batching" of edit notifications -- For example, if a post was edited multiple times within 5 minutes, only the last one is highlighted

    • Search bar navigation fails if user clicks slowly
      • If you click slowly (click-hold-release) on a pop-up search result, the search results disappear but you don't get taken to the desired page.
      • If you click quickly (click-release) on a pop-up search result, then you get taken to the desired page as expected.

      The animation below shows a slow click (which failed to navigate) followed by a fast click (which successfully navigated). It was recorded on the Qt Forum, but the same behaviour occurs on https://community.nodebb.org/ (Tested today, on Firefox 86.0 and Chrome 88.0.4324.190 on Windows 10)

      I believe this occurs because a mouse-down event causes the pop-up to disappear. However, if the clickable link disappears before the user releases the mouse button, then the click event does not trigger.

    • Add tooltips/alt-text for mobile UI buttons

      When composing a New Topic on a mobile screen (or a desktop when the browser window size is small), the "Discard", "Minimize", and "Submit" buttons are shown on the top bar as icons: X, -, and >.

      It would be helpful for these icons to get tooltips/alt-text for accessibility and for users who aren't familiar with the meanings of these icons.

    • How to gray out posts that have negative reputation?

      In stackoverflow.com, posts that have more downvotes than upvotes become grayed out so that readers will focus more on the higher-quality posts.

      In a NodeBB forum, Moderators can see deleted posts in grayed-out mode.

      Is there a way to gray out NodeBB posts that have more downvotes than upvotes?
