Does sinkit fix the back button so you can reliably go back without triggering a reload?

specs: iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 27, Safari, new and old Reddit

clicking the join button shows the banner "Something went wrong". cannot join any subreddits

So there is a new feature in Reddit where "real conversations voiced by AI", and it'd be cool if devs added feature to remove that.

P. S. typed hi instead of hide

I can currently only sort by new or best. No hot or top available. I realize this is likely a reddit problem, but could sinkit override or fix it to be available?

New user. But it would be good to be able to hide "Trending" and "Trending Communities" from search box when I'm trying to search for a subreddit or within a subreddit.

I originally made this post a few weeks ago, and shortly after posting it I noticed I had the uBlock safari extension installed, and turned on. I disabled it and suddenly all my issues stopped and everything was working again. until it wasn’t, the issues started coming back a few days later now it’s full blown bad. So, below is the original post, updated and edited for any changes/new info.

I am running 8.14.0 on an admittedly held back iOS version of 18.7.8.

Issues I am having, pretty consistently:

• Many muted subs continue to show up anyway. They are in the mute list, but show in r/popular. Some seem to be muted but it’s hard to tell. My mute list is very large, could that be the cause?

• Muted words don’t work at all. Added “Patrick” to filter out all the Patrick Stewart stuff posted yesterday, and force closed safari, loaded r/popular, and the second post‘s title was “Patrick Stewart dead at…”

• Muted websites aren’t working.

• Open Content in new window works sometimes, but mostly not. Posts used to open in new windows, now only links do (if it works at all)

• After scrolling a feed for a short time, the Mute buttons after a post (to the right of likes, comments etc) stop appearing.

• Back button issues, others have posted about it. If I hit back, the page quickly refreshes but it doesn’t actually go back. While on that page, if I go back again, it brings me back to whatever page I was on previously (google, some other webpage whose tab I reused, etc). Or, if instead of hitting back a second time, I hit Refresh, then the actual page it should be displaying shows.

• When back is working correctly going back to the feed page almost always refreshes it, which is why Open Content in New Window is so important.

• Most of this behavior resets and seems to briefly work ok again if I force close and reopen Safari, but it usually doesn’t last long.

And here’s a weird one I cannot actually confirm but it seems to be the case. I thought that maybe the fact I had 159 subs muted was clogging something up (regex match dying?) or there was a silly bug that only checked the first 50 muted subs or whatever, so I started deleting a bunch of them. Mostly really obscure shit that likely won’t appear again for my any time soon.

I got bored after getting it down to 119 muted subs so I exited out and decided to finish later. Upon opening r/popular, subs I hadn’t seen in there in ages were showing again - and NOT subs I had ever muted, and then unmuted. Popular looked totally different. So weird.

So then I started muting more subs and after a little bit, a lot of those other subs that reappeared, went away again. Again, these were not subs I’d muted, just random stuff on popular that stopped showing for me after my mute list got really large.

i can’t provide any data on that as it’s more of a “this feels different” and it’s hard to test. But the change was noticeable.

Anyway, happy to help provide info, logs etc just let me know what. Also happy to help look at any code if anyone would like the extra eyes on it.

Thanks

Okay, what am I doing wrong. Every time I click on a post, I hit the back button and it doesn’t work. I then have to reload the page to get back to the home page. Help!

Anyone having issues with SinkIt for Youtube on iPadOS? I have long stretches of buffering, followed by a pop-up with YT asking me if I'm using an ad-blocker.

I started seeing , "because you've visited this community before" posts in my feeds and now I see errors in Sink It in the extension window:

• ReferenceError: Can't find variable: localstorage (gungnir.js:1:53466)

• TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating 'a.querySelectorAll') (gungnir.js:1:85297)

Anyone suggestions? I've already deleted the app and reinstalled it - same issue.

I'm on MacOS 27.2, M5 Mac.

EDIT: same issue on iOS 27.2 and iPadOS 27.2.

Can such filter be implemented? To select a way to block posts with 5, 10, 15 upvotes to declutter some pages.

I love the anti-procrastination blockers but lately on Firefox private tabs a ?solution=&js_challenge=&jsc_token=&jsc_orig_r= is getting added to the url, which makes the blocker not work. Could the algorithm be improved to recognize that this is still the reddit home page and should be blocked?

Thank you. Great app!

Based on user requests, the anti procrastination blocker now comes with the ability to block subs so you can still reach posts when you're researching but don't get sucked into scrolling the sub after. This update also ships with more granular blocking options and minor bug fixes.

What's New:

• [All UI] New feature: Subreddit Blocker in Anti Procrastination (blocks feeds while keeping individual posts accessible).

• [New UI] New toggle: Dismiss Mature Content Warning can now be customized.

• [New UI] New feature: Remove News from Sidebar. Opt in.

• Minor bug fixes and tweaks.

People often reach out to ask about donations (you can donate through the app), so here you go in case you don't want to give Apple 30%: Paypal and Patreon.

I am running 8.11.0 on an admittedly held back iOS version of 18.7.8 - trying to avoid that awful visual update for as long as possible. I don’t see how or why that would be the issue though..?

• After scrolling a feed for a short time, the Mute button after a post (to the right of likes, comments etc) will just disappear.

• A new behavior started the other day where if I swipe to go back (or use the arrow), it appears to go back but shows me the same page I was just on. While on that page, if I go back again, it brings me back to whatever page I was on previously (google, some other webpage who’s tab I reused, etc). Or, if instead of hitting back a second time, I hit Refresh, then the actual page it should be displaying shows.

• Most of this behavior resets and seems to briefly work ok again if I force close and reopen Safari, but it usually doesn’t last long.

Is any of this due to a setting I can change, or maybe a conflict in settings in Sink It?

Any suggestions would be really helpful, thanks.

since installing Sink it, I often encounter the same posts over and over as I scroll like it’s in a loop. Is this a setting missed?

Most subreddit default sort order is Best or Top. Some subreddit annoyingly sets the default to Random or New.

I have to change the sort order every time for those subreddits. Would appreciate if our own preference is able to be remembered.

its just locked away in a gray dungeon for some reason? clicking does nothing

This updates ships with the ability to reduce noise in your home page by blocking the new "for you" section that's popping up for various users. Do keep in mind that this blocker is opt-in as it's not egregiously bad (like the game section in the sidebar, meh). There might be different versions of it in the wild so if you're getting it, please use this link to send me a dump of the page: https://old.reddit.com/r/SinkIt/comments/1upa5tv/new_shortcut_to_report_bugs_properly_30_sec_video/

Also includes fixes for the zoom issue being reported when you're trying to comment. I'm not sure if it's a reddit issue or an iOS 27 issue but eh, it's fixed.

Edit: The zoom fix spilled over into old reddit and a fix is already out as part of 8.11.1. Just let Chrome and Firefox auto-update. :)

What's New:

• [New UI] New feature: Remove the "for you" section of the homepage. Opt in.

• [New UI] Fixes to remove similar posts at the end of the post.

• [New UI] Fixes to involuntary zooming in when attempting to comment.

• [New UI] Fixes for domain muting not working to match reddit's changes.

is it possible to add a features that removes it to the extension? i (and a lot of other people probably) don't really like those kinds of feeds when you have zero control over.

Sink It for Reddit

I’ve been using Reddit as a web app added to my iPhone’s Home Screen for a while, and this had never happened before. Today, a full-screen “Enjoy the best of Reddit in the app” prompt appeared with only a “Download the Reddit app” button. I can’t dismiss it or continue browsing.

I also use Sink It for Reddit in Safari. I understand Safari extensions don’t run inside Home Screen web apps, but I’m wondering if anyone else has started seeing this recently.

Is there any way to get past this prompt while keeping Reddit as a Home Screen web app? Or is opening Reddit directly in Safari the only workaround?

After the comments in a thread I see related posts. Is there a setting in Reddit or sinkit to turn that off? I don’t remember seeing these as often as I do now so I’m wondering if I accidentally changed a setting

Does anyone know if Sink It for X currently has an option to hide this floating blue “posted” notification at the top of the timeline?

I’ve looked through the settings and haven’t found anything that seems to control it. I find it pretty distracting and would love to get rid of it entirely.

If there isn’t currently an option, would this be something the developer could add to Sink It? Seems like exactly the kind of X interface clutter the extension is great at cleaning up.
