Five things the Web UI could do and the chat could not
/note, /trustrunning, /askmajor and /testchannel, on Telegram and Discord — 35 commands each, still identical on both sides.
All four are container state, which is what a chat is for. The Web UI is where you go when you are already at a desk; the chat is where you are when something has just gone wrong.
/testchannel is the one that is genuinely better here than there. It sends a test through every channel that is switched on, and you are already standing where the message has to arrive — so "did it work?" answers itself. A channel that stays quiet is a channel to look at.
The auto-update notice names the containers
It used to say "⚡ Auto-updating 2 container(s)…" and stop there. @LeeNX, on #56:
I prefer knowing what is about to change or upgrade at a glance, so if something breaks and could be related, I have an idea of where to look.
Quite right — a count tells you the size of what is about to happen and nothing about what. Names now, capped at twelve with an "and N more": past a dozen it stops being a glance, and the per-container results follow in the same conversation anyway.
E-mail can carry a backup
Of the seven delivery-only channels, e-mail is the one that can hold a file — and a backup in your inbox is the copy that survives the machine it came from.
Nothing can ask for it there, because e-mail has no way back; the Web UI and the automatic local copy are what trigger it.
And the configuration reference says which settings the interface can change
@NotRetarded read on one page that a setting was editable in the Web UI, saw its default on another, and could not tell whether the two agreed. Fair — the tables never said, and a paragraph eighty lines below described "roughly" which settings were editable.
Sixty-six variables carry a ⚙ now, with a legend saying that the interface wins, and that since v2.13.0 a save only writes what you actually changed — so a variable set in your compose file keeps working unless you change that same setting in the interface.
