"Are you sure you want to leave this page?" confirmation in chat, roleplays, feedback and elsewhere when a message is entered (accepted)
I use this site from my phone, and increasingly often recently I've accidentally tapped a link in the footer while typing out a message. I'm navigated away, and when I hit back the message is gone. This even happened while I was filling out the title of this feedback.
On a page where I've been filling in a text box and it's been changed during the course of me being on the page - chat, roleplays, feedback comments, feedback creation, chat and roleplay and ad creation; maybe there's other places too - please add a confirmation dialogue before I exit the page and tab?
Would also help on desktop with accidental tab closures.

From my understanding, the text being written should be saved to the last period, and various other forms of sentence pauses. The most you should lose is perhaps one sentence or so. Is that site feature no linger functioning?
I lose my text. I lose feedback comments like the one I'm writing. I lose titles of feedback suggestions. I lose anything in a roleplay or chat message after the last full stop I wrote, which on a phone where writing takes a lot of time and effort, could be considered a lot.
I'm not so sure about this, chats and roleplays are intended to be very frictionless to enter and leave. Giving a warning when you're about to leave sends the exact opposite message - staying on this screen is important.
Accepted on the basis that this occurs after you've started filling in a message, or changed something (if it's an edit page).
Got something to say?
