  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I’ll start. Booked a hotel next weekend via a big blue hotel booing site. Get a phone call today from the accomodation provider asking for payment. Told them to take it via the booking site. They say no, and I will lose my reservation. Booking site says pay the accomodation direct. Go on the accomodation site and I can’t book for the days I wanted. WTF arrrrrgh.

When I tried to import all of my subscriptions from my old account into this one, I accidentally clicked export instead of import. Now it's been saying "try import or export again in a few minutes" for the last few hours. This has happened to me before when I've tried exporting twice in one day. Apparently "a few minutes" equals 24 hours or something.

And if someone tells me that this is a known bug from 2 years ago that has never been addressed, it'll piss me off even more lol.

Yup, it's a known bug, super annoying.

Basically, don't touch the import/export for about 3 days solid. Each time you touch it it seems to reset the timer.

Then it'll work when you do an import after roughly 48 hours or so.

At least that's how it was for me.

Seems to be 24 hours now, from what I've seen. I waited until 24 hours after the timestamp on my user settings file and now I've been able to successfully import today. It was also 24 hours last time I encountered this a month or two ago.

It is really annoying. It's little things like this that they should make a priority to fix because it's things like this that'll make people look for another platform in the mean time.
