Dang it. I lost my draft post when I went to look for this link: https://www.usgs.gov/news/featured-story/magnitude-64-earthquake-puerto-rico
This one 6.4 in 2020 rattled our dishes and shook the house and maybe resulted in a hairline crack or two some 20 km away. But near the epicenter, bridges collapsed and many houses fell off their foundations and/or were extremely damaged. Commonly we get 3.4 - 5.0 shakes.
@th3j35t3r #CoSoHelp is there a way to keep our draft messages from disappearing without compromising security? Specifically I'm on mobile and left to go get a link. When I returned, no message no more.
@FireMonkey Probably not. Besides, this problem is mitigated with tab management.
Need to grab a link? Just open a new tab, and your draft will be preserved in the original one—for a time. @th3j35t3r

Yeah I use the mobile droid app and just went over to the duck duck browser. Grabbed the link and came back and it had refreshed. There is no "draft folder" like my mail has. Not really a critical issue. I can work around it. 😉
@FireMonkey a lot of the time, especially for larger posts, I'll draft them in notes and then copy them over to make things easier & for spellchecking purposes. Only had to lose a few posts to browsers refreshing for that habit to form.
Some folks do similar but take it a step further and off-site archive their posts as well with this method.
@FireMonkey If you're using the mobile app, then using a browser to grab a link shouldn't affect your draft.
If you're using a mobile browser to access CoSo, then you can still open a new tab to preserve your draft.
Unless I'm missing something? 🤔@th3j35t3r
