  1. I got a referral this morning (see screenshot), but it's still showing "0" my referral page. Does it just take a little while to register in the system?
Mhh, not sure, that might be a bug or we indeed don't refresh the chart (probably once per day?) as often. Will check and tell you more then
  1. I noticed that when I send the standard referral link (https://stacker.news/r/benwehrman) it gives the user a "👋 Welcome to Stacker News!" banner at the top, but when I add the referral suffix on a link to my profile (https://stacker.news/benwehrman/r/benwehrman), that banner does not appear.
The banner only appears on the front page iirc. But it's definitely unrelated to referrals :)
It also only appears once. If you close it, we save in your browser local storage that you've seen it. So don't wonder if it shows up for someone new on SN :)

This a bug following my deployment yesterday. It's a UTC offset problem. I'll try to fix this today.
Those referrals should show up in 6 hours though

This should be fixed now. Also @roy you've got your recent search back. Or maybe I should just type breez 😄
