In my opinion the new design would look cleaner and better without the (started by username ) tags, which don't add a lot of value and make it feel a bit cluttered, especially on mobile. Also, is there a way to have the archive section of the forums collapsed by default? _________________ Join us in the canon game :) / Add me on RYM

Thanks for feedback, can definitely lose the started by username tags on mobile to declutter a bit (but retain on desktop for the time being, personally find it useful to see who started a thread). Also, hadn't realised the archive forums were showing at all. I'll check into why that's happening and make a fix. _________________ Bluesky · Facebook · Spotify · X

Also, how many characters can I write on a description for an album on a chart? Because right now, I have a long review for an album next time I update my Top 100 Greatest Albums, and I know it's about the character count. _________________ My Top 100 :

Currently, the limit is about ~8,000 characters (roughly 1,200–1,500 words). If you hit that limit, let me know. It's something that could be increased in a future update, but would probably still keep a limit in place to help maintain the readability of charts. _________________ Bluesky · Facebook · Spotify · X

My review is 15769 characters. Maybe I should post the review as a thread, and then the description on my chart could be a link. But is it possible to make links/URLs in charts like we do in the forums?
Another bug currently: whenever I go on a chart or a user's ratings, and I click "Show all" on the artists, as soon as I click the alphabetical order, it goes out.

The current 8,000-character limit is intended to keep reviews readable. I'd consider increasing it slightly in a future update, but 15,000+ characters is quite a bit higher than the current limit (roughly equivalent to six A4 pages of text). It is planned to allow links to other parts of the site (from comments) on the 2026 roadmap, which could include links to forum threads.

Apologies, I'll look into that and get it fixed. (EDIT: fix deployed / some areas may still be cached for a short while)
I'll look into that and get it fixed as well. It looks like some background changes in the last site update may have introduced that issue. (EDIT: fix deployed) _________________ Bluesky · Facebook · Spotify · X

Let me know when it'll show as a link on the charts (like it does here) and not just text. And thanks again for all the edits. _________________ My Top 100 :

No worries and thanks for your understanding and the great review. I'll keep you posted (more than likely be a couple of updates away as quite a bit upcoming/already in progress). There was a bit of pushback against very long reviews in the past, ~8,000 chars was the max figure settled on somewhere in the mists of time. Not sure how many other people have had problems with this limit, it would be interesting to know.
