RE: Proposal: Make a mention tab

yeah man! that's a really needed feature!

i guess it is being held back as it will require a pretty hefty lookup on the blockchain causing a lot of strain on servers...

Sort:  

I am not a tech guy so I didn't know that, so thank you for letting me know! :)

no biggie! I am not 100% sure if that's what's holding the feature back... but to implement it will certainly require a search on post content and that will be demanding. Much more demanding thank searching for "author" or "postID" etc...

Someone mentioned it would take quite a lot to change it. Something to do with the blockchain.

I guess I am trying to say the same thing :P
