Copy-Pasting your post here... by edit ..select all...paste ..options ..
Hello Team,
I want to start by expressing my appreciation for the updates and new features on IF - it's great to see the platform evolving. However, I have some concerns regarding the recent changes, particularly the copy-pasting restrictions:

I’ve noticed that when I try to copy and paste, only the first 50 characters are included before a link appears, which feels a bit limiting. For example, I wanted to respond to a user’s review on my fan fiction update line by line, but since it was a members-only post, I couldn’t quote it directly. Instead, I ended up copying everything manually to respond, which felt a bit like doing a scavenger hunt with my keyboard.
Additionally, while editing my fan fictions, I faced a frustrating situation where I lost a 7,000-word chapter because only half of it copied before the link popped up. It’s been quite a challenge! I know I can work in Word, but let’s just say, that copy-paste experience was more of a horror story than I bargained for ... because while I was pasting from there; the space between two words just disappeared .. like this (@bold)
Miss thosedays .. it was funback then
IF is a space eater too
I also noticed that we can’t hide our active thread posts anymore, which adds to the clutter. Just yesterday, I wanted to copy an original story to post on Wattpad, but I was reminded of this new update. It’s proving to be quite inconvenient.
While I understand these measures are in place to protect our content,
(Also, as one user pointed out few days ago in this very thread) - I think it’s worth noting that there are tools available that can extract text from images in no time at all. Jisko copy karna hoga wo karke hi rahega.
I don’t believe I’m the only one facing these issues. It might be helpful to conduct a poll or gather feedback from the community regarding these features.
I sincerely request you to consider my request! Thank you for all your hard work in improving IF
Happy Diwali!
Best regards,
Anushka

is it possible if we can be allowed to copy and paste our own posts irrespective wherever we post whether its in a forum or FF forum?? like onto a different portal or notepad wherever the user prefers to copy and paste the text?? i mean, i copy and paste my own text (unposted) onto a different place and the whole "read more.." thing pops up when i even havent posted that text...

Hello mods,

Wishing you happy new year and hope you are enjoying the festivities.

Can you please let users change the username more frequently, once a year is a long wait if you changed it but regret it few days later and want to change again, may be allow 3 changes a year or something. Please consider 🙏🏻
