Gmail and Sift Lounge Fixed
It finally reached our attention that siftbot's emails sent to Gmail addresses haven't been reaching their destination for a while! Google required that a change be made, and that's done so emails should be back in normal working order for @ mentions and similar activity-based notifications.
Apologies for anyone and everyone who has been hollering in comments at others but getting no response. 😢 (@eric3579, @ant, @newtboy, and everyone else)
In addition, I noticed that Sift Lounge has been broken, in that you could kind of load the page but never post any messages.
Just in case anyone decides to pop in, this has been fixed. And it now supports the modern emoji short tags as well. 👍
I'll probably be hanging out regularly now that it's working again, hoping to see other Sifters jumping back in there as well!

lucky760Haha. The detection for "are you here" or "did you leave" needs work! When you leave your browser running while it's in the background, it throws it off.
Also, it does look like the email notifications aren't coming through, so more investigation and work will be needed!
lucky760@eric3579
I've modified the way the "are you here or did you leave" logic fires, so when your browser tab is idle, it hopefully won't have the "entered/left/entered/left/..." problem anymore.
🤞
