RE: Esteem mobile v2.0.9; Using one of the markdown shortcuts, and using backspace after inputting the markdown syntax crashes the app.

Hi, just seeing your response.

Steps are meant to help reproduce a bug. It is almost useless if a bug cannot be reproduced. While a moderator will most definitely go through the video provided, most POs don't have the time to look through a recording.

The recording should complement the written steps. It shouldn't be the only way a project maintainer is able to replicate an issue.

The bug in itself was confusing, confusing in the sense that special measures had to be taken to ensure reproduction. The steps weren't clear enough.

I know the answer in the questionnaire was harsh but that was the only option close enough to the scenario. Maybe in the future we will revisit the questionnaire and probably include more cases.

Sort:  

Maybe they do, but eSteemApp is just a single project. Hence we cannot tailor a questionnaire to suit just the needs of a select set of project maintainers.

Probably use "It was not as clear as it should be" cause I think "Lacked in clarity" connotes a stronger meaning, hence your reaction.

POs on Github ask for screenshots and videos when applicable, especially Esteemapp. Aside from that, I still dunno how you say the steps to reproduce the bug lacked in clarity. What would you have said differently?
