Current Behavior:

If you are drafting multiple Posts under the same or different Spaces that you haven't published yet in different browser tabs, they all auto-save to the same value in Local Storage, so if you lose your connection, you'll only be able to recover the draft post that you last modified

Expected Behavior:

It should store each post in Local Storage under a Space + Post key, instead of just storing them all in the same place, so if you'll be able to recover multiple draft Posts each from the same or a different Space

Steps To Reproduce:

Refer to the "How to find out what is auto-saved in Local Storage if you draft two posts in parallel that use a different Space?" section in this post https://polkaverse.com/12864/how-to-avoid-losing-your-draft-posts-on-polka-verse-74158

Environment

When scrolling my feed, I see no content on some posts.
Once I click on the post, its content gets loaded.

📚 Context

What is the problem that you are trying to solve?

When I Reply to a Comment, or click "Write Something..." and start writing a post in the popup window, the maximum height of the textarea is about 6 rows, and whilst I can scroll up and down, it is really frustrating to review my draft comment before I publish it if I can only view about 6 rows of it.

Why is this problem relevant?

It is so frustrating that I have to manually go to browser inspector and edit the HTML to change the resize: none to resize: auto for the class name CommentEditor_DfCommentEditor (for replying to a comment), and for classname editor_FastEditor for writing new posts, so that I can drag to make the comment textarea larger.

✔️ Solution

What are the possible solutions?

Change the resize: none to resize: auto for the class name CommentEditor_DfCommentEditor and editor_FastEditor so that users can drag to make the comment textarea larger when replying to posts.
I believe the relevant component is this one for comments https://github.com/dappforce/polkaverse/blob/main/src/components/comments/CommentEditor.tsx#L152, and this one for new posts in the popup window:
https://github.com/dappforce/polkaverse/blob/main/src/components/posts/editor/ModalEditor.tsx#L207

📚 Context

Problem:

I still keep losing draft posts that I've written but haven't published yet.

Relevance:

It is unbearable, especially when you've spent a considerable amount of time preparing a post, only to have it just disappear.

What are the possible solutions?

Here's my explanation of the issues and proposed solutions https://polkaverse.com/12864/how-to-avoid-losing-your-draft-posts-on-polka-verse-74158

If there is only one draft Post being stored in Local Storage, and the post modal disappears, then show an "Edit" button in the header so they may restore that draft Post and continue editing.

If there are multiple draft Posts from the same or different Spaces then store the values in Local Storage under Space + Post key, and if in one of the browser windows or tabs they lose the popup modal of one of the draft posts, provide a "Restore" drop-down or similar, that allows try restoring any of the draft Posts from Local Storage until they find the one they thought they lost

📈 Subtasks

• Store draft posts in browser client-side so it works with VPN

🎯 Definition of Done

• User is able to use a VPN service to protect their privacy even whilst having a poor connection and even if they lose their Websocket connection to the Subsocial node and their draft post disappears, there's an "Edit" or "Restore" button to restore it, rather than just the risk of clicking the wrong thing and finding it gets permanently removed from local storage.
