1) the 'new toots' bit i was talking about putting like. a dot on the 'go back to top' button i was talking about whenever you have new toots on your timeline. i wasn't talking about the 'show new toots' button that already is in pinafore.
2) in pinafore, there is no way to tell if a toot is a part of an already-existing thread without clicking on it. on masto, the 'reply' icon on the toot turns into the 'reply-all' icon to signify that the toot is a part of a thread.
@nolan also i JUST found a new bug where if you type a reply to a status on the toot page, if you go too far down, it starts doing this (the bottom of the gif is the bottom of my browser for me (which is Firefox 59, for reference)):

@sc lol yes, I just noticed that too. Filed a bug, but thanks for the video since that makes it easier to explain. :) https://github.com/nolanlawson/pinafore/issues/64
@nolan lol. no problem!!! always happy to help make the software better :>
@sc Thanks, these are great suggestions! Auto-refresh is supposed to work in principle when you're scrolled to the top, although occasionally it seems to get disconnected (in addition to your case with the adblocker), not sure why yet.
I think the "new toots!" button is already implemented; it should show up whenever new toots arrive and you're not scrolled to the top.
The other issues I think already have something on GitHub but what do you mean by the thread issue?
