This has bugged me since day one.

First you put the link, then you put the title. You can either grab it or you can write it, but the link goes first.

Yet, when I submit stuff - the damned thing is fucking backwards! Backwards, I tell you!

So many times have I put them in there backwards and then had to fix it. Worse, when I do adjust my mental malfunction, I go to the site that has goats and submit something and now I do it backwards on their site!

Fix your shit, bears! You're just a mess!

Seriously, whose idea was this and why did we let them be in charge of anything? It's a horrible idea! Horrible!

It's backwards - unlike, you know, every single other site on the 'net. From Slashdot to Voat to Fark...

It's bad and you should feel bad!

Alright, so it's actually pretty trivial - but it's a constant source of annoyance. You should fix it - simply because I suggested it and I'm always right. Always!

I suppose, I could use Stylish and fix the damned thing myself.

I've got several VM with different OS and I can't reproduce that issue.

Figured it out - it was my next guess.

I logged out and then logged back in again. My guess is that it's stored in a cookie and not on the server. So, it retains the old cookie. I haven't checked the source code, but that's my unofficial guess.

It's now working as expected. I can probably dig up the energy to replicate it later this week, but it's pretty trivial.

We've made several changes this week (mostly cosmetic), even though I don't think they are related to your issue, it's still better to try to connect in private mode and log in to see if it happens again. (private mode doesn't store cookies).

It works fine now that I logged out and logged back in. My guess is that it's actually stored in the cookie itself, but that's just a guess. That was my next step to debugging at my end and it worked. Thus why I've not filled out anything formal.

I'll see if I can recreate it at another time. I'm kind of slacking for the rest of the night, I do believe.

So, it's just me...

Hmm... I'll try a few things and get back to you.
