oh... this is a side effect of the timeline optimizations. when a post scrolls too far off the screen it will disappear. then when you scroll up again it reappears. This is necessary because otherwise the app would try to render a timeline of 400+ notes :grin:

There's no easy solution to this, but I've been thinking it would be cool to save all drafts locally and show you which notes you have pending drafts on :thinking:

The gap where my reply was is clearly a bug. If a stored draft was found, it could re-populate it. Doesn't sound too hard. Otherwise when hitting reply again, the draft should be found and populate.

It shouldn't be difficult to restore a draft. although IMO the difficult part about drafts is making the user aware they have a draft. If I start saving drafts then I have to show users somehow through the UI that they have an unsend reply or note and where to go to finish sending it. probably not difficult though

Drafts can hang around and wait for empty forms to fill in or they can have their own section where you can carefully craft several multi-post threads to be published on certain due dates. I would go for the low hanging fruit and fix the random data loss by not having a dedicated drafts section but just keeping the drafts around in case the user opens the same form again:
