You spoiler is malformed on Lemmy-ui. What app are you using to write spoilers?

Oh also

I keep seeing Starlink pics claimed as drones…

This it right in my community. :(

Our congressman Mark Pocan summed things up well, “Support better gun laws or stay out. Thought & prayers are useless. Action!”

By the way OP its been corrected to three, maybe update title.

It’s a little cludgy because it’s a hack, it really only works well on lemmy.world. There is a new API end point in the next version of Lemmy though, and Voyager will use that if your instance is upgraded.

Yes, on the next release! I requested it a while back and it was implemented, but it just barely didn’t make the cut for the current release

There’s no random NSFW (yet), but you can get random for local communities, which would work on an NSFW instance

Thanks for the alt text!

The girl of my dreams doesn’t know how to remove oligosaccharides making food 🤔

Me, explaining how Lemmy is similar to email…

It should be purple, vs blur. Maybe I could tweak it to be more obvious though!

FWIW the native app of Voyager definitely has more features than the PWA. Probably most notably haptics… PWA is a good options for those that want it though

Hey thanks ☺️

You might have missed it, but I mentioned there will probably be an option added in the future to turn on display names (off by default).

As for other Lemmy clients, I always encourage people to look around and find what works best for you! There are a lot of great apps and what is “best” depends on the person using it.

Ehh, I wouldn’t consider Safari “using chromium” at this point. It has been hard forked for years. Chrome could disappear tomorrow and it wouldn’t affect Safari development.

To be completely honest, if you want a healthy 3rd party app ecosystem, the official UI and backend need to be completely separated with a publicly documented API.

Biggest win with Lemmy, and biggest fluff with kbin. And it shows when it comes to 3rd party app ecosystem. People wanted to build apps for kbin….

Oh, I see. Voyager doesn’t show that because display names are confusing for mentions, can be used to impersonate, and distracting. It might be an option to enable in the future, off by default.

Edit:

Claim

To clarify how I really feel, here’s my hot take: display_name is a really awful feature and should be removed from Lemmy.

Why?

They are dangerous by default because the very concept implies that clients should render display_name instead of the username, if it exists. Which is unwise: Apps have to choose between replacing (bad for impersonation/UX/distraction reasons) and showing both (which just looks duplicative most of the time).

What makes this feature even more frustrating is that people are now using display names for their username + flairs of actually important things, like gender identities. (for example, display_name="Alex (he/his)")

It’s a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation for Lemmy clients. Some people are using display_name for important info like gender identities, and yet display_name is so incredibly easy to impersonate people and otherwise abuse.

Solution?

What is the solution? I think Lemmy should ditch display_name and replace with flair (or something like this). The general idea is that flair is NOT a replacement for your username, but rather it will be displayed alongside it.

Maybe even make flair per-community like Reddit. I think that was a much better design than what Lemmy currently has.

It looks fine for me on voyager. Maybe connection issues.

What do you mean?

The labeling is heavily regulated, it must contain a certain amount of actual cream too. Unfortunately shit tier “frozen desert” can be sold on the same shelf intermingled with the good stuff.

And the marketing doesn’t help either.

But it is very easy to check for the initiated bc it wont be labeled as ice cream. And easy to check ingredient list too. When I buy ice cream, I only buy when the first ingredient is actual cream.
