Show HN: I tried to build the ultimate Reddit gif viewer with Backbone.js (opens in new tab)

It does not do anything when I click on the buttons, Firefox 27 on Windows 7.

I dig it. It looks like linking to a specific image does not work:

I can't view the page on my Nexus 5. it's just a thin line of something!

When I press "back" on my browser, it doesn't take me back. This is up there in annoyances with people stopping their car in a merge lane, websites that auto-play music, and people who speak exclusively with cliches.

This should be at the top of your list of bugs.

Pretty awesome! Gif size goes up really quickly based on length, image size, dithering etc. So a lot of people reduce those so that their gifs are smaller and can load quickly. So maybe a full-screen treatment is not the best idea!

Does it support gfycat (GIFs converted to HTML5 videos)?

It just gives me "Not Found" when I press any of the subreddit buttons.

Some things I've noticed:

* Aspect ratio is ignored causing many images to be cropped.

* Some gifs go on so long that the screen blanks on mobile devices. Where do I tap to keep the screen alive?

* Social network sharing links?

* A feature to star gifs as I go along and then share them all at once to <insert network here> or save them would be nice.

I'd like a filter for items flagged as "nsfw"

This one was embarrassing: http://hugegif.com/#r/perfectloops/1ys9hb

some gifs are not properly resized : http://hugegif.com/#r/gifs/1yzv2t , we can't see the full content ;)

this is awesome, but it would be really sick if there was a sidebar with the list of posts in a given sub.

There goes the rest of my day.
