I get irritated when I strike a problem with a particular platform, such as macOS & some wanky dickwad responds that it's perfectly fine on his completely different setup.
Don't make for easy diagnosis with numpty shit like that.
The only way I can refresh the Global stream at present is to move out of Global, click on either Home or Mentions, then reselect Global. Then it refreshes.
@matigo: On the left side of the search box is a Global icon with a number indicating the number of blurbs available after a refresh. Theoretically, at least. Cos I can't get it to refresh reliably.
@matigo It's all quite horrid on the Mac, but fine on iOS. I have to scroll to the top of the window to see Mentions, Global, Private, Pinned, Stars & Interaction in the top left corner. It's reluctant to refresh, usernames & avatars are not clickable, or not reliably so. Sometimes I can get a user's profile to appear, but there seems to be nothing logical about how I do that. Plus there's no vertical space between posts/messages.
@sumudu I have had to abandon using Cappuccino on the Mac, because it was fine this morning & now it's completely FUCKED UP. I'm back on the !)C Admin page while using macOS.
