Where are drafts saved? (sh.itjust.works)

If I start writing a comment, but decide "nah, not right now" and back out, my partially written comment is "saved as draft".

If I go back to the comment, the partially written comment is "restored from draft".

  • Are drafts stored indefinitely?
  • Is there a way to see all my current drafts?
  • If I keep creating new drafts without ever finishing them, will my storage get full?
  • Is there any way to delete drafts?

Hey there! Good question - I can answer them for you

Are drafts stored indefinitely?

Right now, they are stored indefinitely. They’re stored similarly to how your app settings are stored, and the only way to clear them is to uninstall and reinstall Thunder.

If I keep creating new drafts without ever finishing them, will my storage get full?

That’s a possibility but it’s very unlikely that your storage will get full just from stored drafts since they’re just plain text. Text usually takes up very little space compared to other data (e.g., images)

Is there a way to see all my current drafts?

Is there any way to delete drafts?

If you go back to a previous draft, you can delete the draft but that’s all there is at the moment.

That being said, we are working on features for better draft management to allow viewing/deleting drafts. The related GitHub issue is here: https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/issues/1375

Hopefully this answers all your questions!
