This issue has been bothering me, and a lot of others I'm sure, for quite some time now and I don't know if it has been brought up before but is there any way that, in case of pressing a wrong button, our work can still be saved? Whenever we're typing here, sometimes we tend to go to the previous page when pressing the back key and in that situation, all what we wrote gets lost. I was just hoping that on going back, we can still retrieve what we wrote. Or like in facebook where a pop-up comes warning us and asking if we're sure about leaving the page. I know we are advised to write on MS Word or Wordpad first and then copy it here, and we have been doing that for years. But it would be nice if we didn't have to and if this error could be fixed.

Yes I agree. It has happened with me too that a whole post goes away. Pop up is a good idea

We will soon be implementing this feature so that we do not lose our work accidentally.

That's such a great idea! I said a few months back of putting a "Save" button so that whichever page we're on, it automatically saves if we accidently deletes or something.

But the pop-up is a good idea :')

I agree so much. I often have to keep copying everything that I'm writing because I'm prone to accidentally have a mouse freeze and when I try to make it work I often either end up pressing exit or back and losing all my work.

If we could somehow get a warning like when we press "Clear Form" then it would be so helpful.

Good post
There have been so many times
When i wrote a long post n accidently pressed the wrong key and gone before i could post

There should be something like save draft or that posts get autosaved at regular intervals before posting incase u lose ur post.
