I sometimes draft posts right on SN, rather than copy/pasting from a document. I noticed recently that the drafts are no longer automatically deleted once the post is made. Is this an intentional change? It occurs both on Ubuntu laptop and on my graphene pixel.

I know it's not a huge deal. Maybe I'm just being a pain in the ass, but I prefer the old auto delete. Has anyone else noticed this?

The drafts have never deleted for me on Android mobile. I think it's always been this way.

Only exception is incognito mode where they delete automatically.

I haven’t seen this issue, but I mostly use a stupid little iPad while here. Lmao when I saw the sats being zapped. Thank you for zapping me on this stupid little comment on the stupid little iPad.

I haven’t had this issue.

Also, I think SN needs an actual draft folder that you can save to as opposed to what you have written just staying populated until you post or delete it.

Do you mean that after you post something, you can somehow find an old draft on the interface the next time you post?

If so, this has not happened for me yet. I’m using an iPhone
