Op, since I have been making post with my mobile phone I have never had the experience of losing what I typed because for each paragraph that I typed I always click on the “preview button” and that way my post will be stored in the draft so rather than me relying on some third party websites or apps to keep my unmade post I’d just use “draft”

I think he is talking about some code that does not appear when you try to post it here using /code tag. I saw some users complaining that some Python commands may not appear when you try to publish it, and because a single line of code may cause problems in the program, it is better to use these code uploader site when you want to post a new code.

It is for a small group and not for everyone. They are the ones who post codes and the number of active developers who making such codes on the forum is small due to the limited number of words that do not appear compared to the number of developers.

It's time to consider Note-taking applications to avoid content loss.

I believe each mobile phone devices comes with it own note pad which i see no reason why we should seek further for other related apps to perform same function, same applies to the use of a computer system, theirs sticky note and the normal note pad which also comes with the system.

Do we actually needs to bother ourselves much on getting notes apps from different sources we are not reliable of how they are reputable and good for our safety.

Use those note-taking applications to store your post content but don't use them to store your password, wallet seed, etc.

Even without the use of note pad, you can always make a preview to help save your post on the forum draft posts, there after you can access your contents on the draft button right beneath the preview button.

It happened to me many times. a lot of time, actually. Then I had to write from scratch. It is a hassle for everyone, especially mobile users. Accident happens, a wrong move or a wrong press & everything gets lost. So whenever I'm on my mobile phone, I always use "Keep Notes" from Google to ensure that I don't lose my work. And after writing the content, I tend to post it here.

You are right, OP. And as we all know, BitcoinTalk isn't mobile-friendly. You have to zoom in to see every section or board to post, edit, or reply. It's such a pain. Even at this moment, I'm writing in my Keep Notes app. I prefer using apps rather than websites. What if you accidentally closed the browser or tabs? Some of these websites save data in the cache, so even if the page is closed, you are back where you started from. But many don't. That's what I'm concerned about.

Composing a post content on mobile devices is painful. When you need to copy & paste url links, edit contents, it needs a lot more time than on PC. After finishing content, you can get error notification when click on Posting because some other users made their posts when you are composing. If you are not careful, click on back on the browser will cause you to lose your content if you don't save it somewhere else.

You are right OP. Sometimes when one is typing, mistakenly you back your page unknown to you it loads and all you have typed is automatically wiped out and you will have to start affresh and in Siem cases what you have typed took you time to put up together and you just might have forgotten the beginning and what you are waiting for is just to complete the write-up so you could read it and do your editing before posting it and then the unfortunate happens. It is very annoying though. I have had this experience several times whereby I will be writing and all of a sudden I begin to see my page is loading backwards and all what I have typed wiped off which is very much annoying.

I had to resolve to o sourcing for an easy note taking App and I was introduced to sticky notes which have been very much helpful to me. Very easy to use. You can save your work and width it when ever you feel like doing such. So far I started using it, it has been of good help and importance to my writing both here and other activities. I no longer move about with note book rather I use my app for typing and here too I do most of my typing on my sticky note app before posting here.

I have experienced this on several occasions and usually this happens when device is running on low ram or simply some browser won't keep your draft work which is why before hitting the post button I always go for the preview option to avoid losing what I wrote and can access my draft work on any of my devices at a later time.

Online word counters do a great job too and the best part about them is that this draft information is kept for awhile online provided you don't clear cache or format your device, otherwise thanks for the info

If there wasn’t a way to save file, I would have gone with your first option which is pastebin I have used it and it also has a draft which would be helpful for a different forum/platform without a built in draft feature.

That is a warning message and not an error notification, it comes in really handy when writing a reply to know if what you were planning to say has already been posted on the thread.

That's true op, it isn't a error message it's only a notification to inform you that new replies has been made to that post, so you should be aware to avoid repeated replies. The only error you get most times is the timed out error which usually comes when you take longer time in posting your message.

A note app can function better in some areas, but it has to be one which does not collate user data from what they type and keep logs of the information.

From the list he has posted here, I don't see anyone that would be trust wordy. They are just some Ai and third party sites which is not any different from the notepad installed on your mobile. I prefer not to download third-party software, especially when it comes to writing or typing. Some of these apps might be designed to anonymously store your passwords or monitoring your activity. Instead, I typically use my phone's built-in Notepad when I need to write longer responses that I don't want to lose. I also suggest using trusted, pre-installed software for writing tasks to stay on the safer side.

There is a draft page where you can preview to Dave your content there, it has some drawbacks like a minimum (100) number of messages and a time limit (7 days) after which messages are deleted, but it can help slightly while making a reply.
