Philomena open beta / breaking API changes

Extremely minor, but it no longer shows “WebM” over the WebM images on search to differentiate it from gifs.

On the old software, if you click on or search for a tag that you have set as spoilers, it won’t show the images as spoilered. On Philomena, they’re still spoilered. Kind of a minor pet peeve, since I would often use that as a way to bypass spoilers without outright turning off spoilers for that particular tag.

Prepare for chaos.

The ordering of filters in the select element popup for filters has changed. On the live site, the optgroups listed are in the order [“Your Filters”, “Recent Filters”], while on philomena, the ordering is [“Recent Filters”, “Your Filters”]. A minor thing, but its screwing with my muscle memory.

Even more minor is that the text in the select element popup for filters on the live site is monospaced, while the text on philomena is proportional.

 
I didn’t see anyone respond to this (or my bug report[s]) so I’d just like to bring this up again.
 
That change seems really weird, considering the My Filter is the one I use the most, whilst most of the “recent filters” are ones I’ve literally never touched in my life.
 
Edit: Oh. It was fixed? Never mind then…

• Will Earliest First comment sorting (and the other currently not available comment settings) be back?
   
• In Recent Artwork/Uploads/Favorites on profile pages, was the change from 5 small thumbnails in one line to 6 regular size thumbnails in two lines intended? If it stays, I’d actually suggest to increase it to 8 thumbnails, since right now it wraps 4-2 and leaves empty space at the end of the second line.

I might bring this [searching for specific tag not displaying spoiler for that tag alone] back, but I am not certain how many people actually use this. It’s annoying to support, but if there is a strong demand for it I will implement it.
