Would it be feasible to add the image description (or at least the first 140 content characters thereof) to the link preview cards that embed in, for example, Discord?

I don’t know if this would be possible, but it would be nice if you could download a whole gallery at once as a zip file (with the images having their ID numbers as the file names, as they would if you pressed the “DS” button on them).

Oh that actually sounds really cool to have! I’ve got lots of galleries now but I always worry that if I start downloading every image from those galleries by individually opening the images and downloading them, it could accidentally trip the bot detection stuff.
Having them all downloaded as a ZIP/RAR/TAR/whatever would definitely solve that!

I’d like another column in the Reports page that shows when the report was closed. This’d be useful to tell whether repeat problematic behavior happened before or after the report was closed (to tell if it needs re-reporting or if it would have already been addressed.)

It would be useful to make tag edit history searchable. Use case is to answer “who changed this particular tag on this image?”, which is hard to do for images with long histories, like the current featured image. The easiest implementation would be an option to show the entire history at once, allowing users to search it with ctrl+f.

Speaking of which, how much effort would it be to make pagination of things like long tag change histories or the DNP optional? As in, default behavior shows 25 results per page, but a dropdown is included with options for 25, 50, 100, or ALL?

I’d like for the aliases:, alias_of:, implied_by:, and implies: queries on the tags page to support the relatively new tag category quantity syntax - for example, so you could search for “implies:(character_tag_count.gt:0)” to see all tags that imply characters or “implies:(character_tag_count.eq:6)” for tags that imply six characters.
Bonus, I’d like quantity queries to be possible on those fields, themselves - eg. “alias_of.gt:3” or “implies.gt:3”
(Strangely, when I try that right now, I get a Fluffle Puff Cloudflare 5XX instead of a normal invalid search error message.)

A special search term for tags that mutually imply would also be nice.

Seen a lot of spam accounts posting BS recently and had a thought; why don’t you implement a series of questions when registering an account?
For example “What element of harmony does Twilight Sparkle represent?”, “Where does Fluttershy live?, answerable with a multi choice selection.
Easy for anyone with the slightest of knowledge to pass but should prevent bots and deter spammers from bothering to make an account.

Unironically, the captcha on the site for a few years used to be matching cutie marks of the M6 to their names.
We got a lot of complaints from real humans that it was too difficult.
Turns out there are actually a lot of people into pony art that’ve barely (if at all) actually watched FiM (or care about its main characters).

I wouldn’t mind returning to something like it, mind.

@Ciaran
I assumed most people here have some understanding of English (isn’t this website and GUI only available in English?) but I guess language barriers could be and issue, perhaps it could be done with pictures?
How about an option to select between G5 or G4 questions?

@The Smiling Pony
Yet another example of why mild gatekeeping is a good thing.
As @� said, perhaps there’d need to be an EqG option in addition to G5 & G4 matching games. People exclusively into EqG baffle me, yet they undeniably exist.
Background Pony #2A5F
And shouldn’t the questions be more about G5?
Haven’t watched G5 and I’m not alone, so unless you mean “select image with Misty” type of questions, I’d have to google the answer. I don’t even know their cutie marks.

To continue posting, name the pony with the blue hat and pearls:
Ha, ha, just serious. Sure - you can look her up. But don’t you see how fast you’d get sick of that?
And anyway, it’s clear that some, if not most, of the most prolific spammers are not bots, but people working in some sort of sweat shop, because you can actually see them stop spamming, and spend a half hour casually browsing the site and leaving real, on topic, fan-style commenting on images.
Like, they punch out, and then actually browse the site. Like gold farmers who also are in guilds and just play for fun because they like the game, too.
2LDR: Your plan doesn’t work if the call is coming from inside the house - some people working in spam sweatshops are fans of the galls with the hooves, too. You put up a barrier by asking them if they’re a fan, you end up with more spammers who are also fans.

Feature request: in the tagging autocomplete list, color the backgrounds of the suggested tags according to the same background color they receive in the finished tag list.
I’ve mistakenly used yet another character tag because I didn’t realize it was somepony’s name instead of the noun for an object in the scene.

@🐴
I’ve wanted this for years.
I fear most people would ignore the colors, like they ignore the numbers in tags, but at least the site would try to guide them.
(Related: we should namespace more stuff. Episode names, movie names, and character names could all be namespaced easily.)
