mac_gyver Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 when hovering over a user's name/icon, the dialog box used to contain information about what they were doing at the time, e.g. viewing topic ... this was useful to prevent wasted time replying (if a contributing member was viewing a topic i would likely post a reply in, i would typically wait to see if they posted, in order to prevent repeating ourselves.) it was also helpful to know if the OP was actively viewing their own topic. this piece of information is no longer present in the dialog box.

I usually browse the Activity page and select a topic. If I feel that the topic is not in my area of expertise, I will click the "Back" button and return to the Activity list. However, this still shows me as viewing the topic, which may be for a while if there are no other new topics. It isn't until I click "Home" that it again shows me as viewing the index.

requinix Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I expect there's some degree of caching involved, but it could be something as sophisticated as not tracking you as doing something unless you've spent a few seconds on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
