On mobile Firefox, the app captures the gesture to go back to the prior page, so I couldn't come back to here until I typed in the URL box to navigate to Hacker News

Same thing on my mobile Firefox. I actually went back dozen times, thinking to myself "did I really make this many fuck cards?" before realizing what's happening. If you're gonna hijack the back button for the purpose of your app, folks, at least make it eventually go to the previous page. Don't make it circular.

Or, in the spirit of the site itself... they can fuck the fuck off. Not sure if it's lazy or hostile but it ensures I won't visit again.

Same on Android Chrome.

Fun app. You can have that cool go back functionality without actually preventing people from going back.

This site is an example. Choose another question a few times then click the back button.

I try my best to not assume malice unless evident beyond reasonable doubt.

Far more evil comes from misunderstanding or just plain old ignorance (not in a deragoratory way - we all learn new things every day). So in practice, it's a useful heuristic.

Something goes wonky when creating the card. The card is flipped with the result but the inputs are visible on the "other side" of the card[0]. On latest version of Firefox. Also it was a little confusing selecting words. I thought you only select one top word and one bottom word. Didn't realize you should select more than one for it to make sense.

It's resolved now. It's a Firefox bug that has a workaround. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9604982/backface-visibil...

Works great now, thanks for the quick response!
