Was it limited to one user? I'm quite sure there has been feedback given since 2017 :)

Yeah thats what baffled me. I suspect there was a period after the migration where it worked, then a subsequent change that knocked out feedback for anyone who hadn't recieved new entries during the period before that.

All the comments needed surrounding with tags, the "old" feedback system didn't do that, the new one does... I think its more a phpbb3 change that did the knock out as the feedback system hasn't seen changes.

Anyone else having trouble with email notifications?
I stopped receiving them a while back even though they are active for new pm's. They're not caught in the spam filter. I simply don't get them anymore.

You're on Gmail. Google put all manner of crap in the way for gmail delivery from smaller email senders, including silently dropping messages.

I have had no success finding what magic hoops are required to jump through at the moment.

Hmm, that's a shame. I should really setup my own email server.

DKIM and SPF set up I presume
We've had them set up for donkeys, but I've gone through it all again today and found an error in the instructions from our email host that was stopping DMARC working properly. The online testing tools weren't spotting it, you could only see in the email headers - which of course need the email to be received to see :lol:. That's now fixed, I've reviewed all the related DNS records and added the "optional" bits. Caveat - the provider uses a 1024-bit DKIM key so we'll see if Gmail starts rejecting anything in the future.

Bonus points - I've fixed incoming email too, been a longstanding problem that messages to @arcadeotaku.com were bouncing.

Another important thing is to make sure the mail server isn't blacklisted anywhere. I've been running my own mail server for 15+ years, and I always check https://multirbl.valli.org from time to time to make sure my server isn't on any blacklists.

Join the queue for asking Elon. All Embedded profiles have been like that for over a month since he broke it looking for pennies. The pornsite formally known as Twitter's own documentation pages have the same broken embeds. :palm:

I've read that you can still see embedded feeds if you previously log into the 𝕏 desktop version on the same browser and lower security settings to allow third party cookies.

I did too. I'd never have used Twitter without your exposure.
