lemmy

Maybe I’m misunderstanding how the Show Context link is meant to work, but I would think when you click Show Context, it should show the comment being replied to so you can see the…Well, context....

The platform/service is still in beta and opening up invites to its first users now....

I’m getting tired of every time I load a post that it defaults to sorting comments by Hot, and I prefer sorting by Top, so I have to load each post I read twice. There’s only a setting to default sort posts this way, not comments in posts.

I ask generally out of curiosity. I was just thinking that as big social media fractures, old school isolated forums might become “cool again”, and that one of the achievements of lemmy might be as a nice platform for simply running a forum for whatever community you want all without needing to worry about federation....

Currently if you archive a Lemmy thread you can see all the posts and comments but all replies to all comments are hidden in a “X# more replies ->” which if clicked it tries opening it forever and the replies never load....

Basically what the title says, while the page is loading sometimes I will see someone else’s username and pfp in the top left corner before it switches to my own when the page finishes loading. I have seen this happen twice now....

My block list is quickly filling up with communities that I don’t have anything against, I just don’t speak the language. Does such a setting already exist? If not, are there any plans to add one?

I swear I made a post to a community and lemmy automatically detected that it had the same URL link as another post in another community made by someone else and listed this post as a cross post....

This is something pretty small but extremely annoying....

I’ve updated the bot and added the possibility of translating hardcoded links (like this one: lemmy.world/post/2355178 or this one: lemmy.world/comment/1863672) to posts/comments with links from your instance when you mention him. I’ll show an example in comments.

Down with the algorithm telling us what to read. I just want to see most recent first. Thanks.

I’ve read some people saying that it’s better. How has it changed?

Sorry if this is obvious question

I’m subscribed to quite a few communities now but my subscribed feed is still pretty barren. Whether I sort by hot or active I’m seeing the same few posts a lot of the time, often with very few upvotes or comments. I also see months old posts popping up again and again. There is a post on one community with -39 score from 8...

I’m sure this is a common topic but the timeline is pretty fast these days....

Is there a way to fold the comments besides the minus on top?...

Wanting to make a wiki for /c/localllama, but not sure if there’s a known place that’s nice for making free wikis, anyone got suggestions on what’s being used widely on lemmy?

I created a few communities here in Lemmy, but I can’t find any moderation options in the mobile apps I tried (Jerboa, Connect)....

It’s come up in the github issues before, but I was wondering if anyone had any positive or negative thoughts about the general idea....

It is nice to know your comment/post are appreciated!
