The glitch editor. Oh my gosh. Ok, let me describe the problem. It seems that whenever I enter the glitch editor, there’s a 75%-Ish percent chance it goes into the “reconnecting” phase, and when it connects, sets the code to a 1 blank code line. Of course, that’s not what it stays at, but I have to go to glitch.com and all the way back. Reloading doesn’t work. Manually saving seems to do nothing but give me the “Psst, glitch autosaves”. I want it to save more frequently or stop this reconnecting bug. If it doesn’t happen in the first 30 seconds, it is bound to happen before an hour or so. My Wi-Fi is not faulty, so it’s probably a client or server end issue. Or just faulty code. I don’t know.

Glitch indeed autosaves every keypress. The reconnecting error indicates that the editor is having trouble connecting to their servers, not a problem with saving. I would recommend getting in contact with them ([email protected]) so they can try to fix the issue
But the thing is, I wouldn’t be too annoyed by the problem if it weren’t for it randomly blanking the code, not letting me do anything at all. Like, even if it doesn’t error, it’s still going to blank the code, and I have to exit and re-enter. Since it blanks the code upon error or randomly after it “connects”, It gives me a short, very short timeframe to copy the code before it gets erased. One time when the code was blanked it saved it as a blank and it basically DELETED the code, the only way I got it back was to rewind (thank gosh for that feature). So not only is it ANNOYING, it’s also DANGEROUS for really large sets of code, such as the Definitions.js in the one i was editing, which is over 19K lines long.

Definitely write in to support then, because that sounds unusual enough to report as potential bug(s).
