Just noticed that messages can have more recent timestamps than the "Last Online" indicator in the user profile.
Say, https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/sBsGb/xcom-2-digital-deluxe#Pj834jL says "Today, 5:18pm", user was online "Today, 5:10pm"

Search stuff: if you search for appid, https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/search?app=351970, typing something into the search field does not replace the app=x part, but adds a new search parameter.

The first one is not a bug, due to the way the website stores last online time there is a 15 minutes margin of error

A software bug is an error, flaw, failure or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways.

I am a programmer, and I do have such glasses (but I do not wear them any more):

Well maybe cg can make comment timestamps less accurate to satisfy you

I agree with Tempete, first one is not a bug, it is designed that way (why making the server working more, checking if the user is online, if it is enough with one check every 15 minutes?)

Second one is a bug tho.

Both are design flaws.
Second one is just adding text filters on title string. Though it makes no sense. But it doesn't really need a fast fix, as we aren't using it.

But let's just call categorize all those ones as bugs. Rather than suggestions.

I don't really understand the need of mockery of OP here, though, for 1st bug.
This is not really nice for him.
He is helpful by reporting what is expected from user end, no matter how things are done in backend.

It is not mockery, and I want to think I have certain confidence with both tevemadar and tempete, fellow puzzlers and friends

Have you actually read that somewhere (preferably from cg), or is it just a common belief spreading along the site?

I can believe this 15-min precision if it also applies to the post-counter, just that is very difficult to spot as a regular user. Still, the definition of bugs remains unchanged, and I did not say they were anything grave, that was why I repeated 'minor' two times.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.
