Lack of history of recently viewed items discards long, thoughtful responses

[matthew2010]

I love this project. Thank you for creating it!

There is a problem that prevents users from posting responses. High quality, thorough responses often require research and sufficient time to write up. Sometimes responders will need to do something complex, like write a working program or perform mathematical calculations.

The problem is, some browsers will simply refresh the tab for the website upon revisiting it. When this happens, the original topic is lost and a new one is presented. The responder will likely discard their response and produce lower quality responses in the future due to this problem.

To solve this issue, there should be a link in the navigation on the website users can click to view their recently visited tasks. It should include tasks that were incomplete.

Thanks.

This is usually a browser setting which can be turned off (e.g. in Google Chrome it's called "Memory Saver"). I'm not sure how plausible it would be for us to allow revisiting old tasks, as we need to release tasks for other users if the current user abandons the task.
