At first I thought "fossil generation" meant the creation of fossils and I was confused.

Is anyone else having trouble giving up Reddit due to content? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] sloonark@lemm.ee 20 points 1 year ago

Here's a little known secret: you can still enjoy Lemmy without giving up reddit. I use both. There are some sports subreddits that I am not prepared to walk away from.

I thought this post title was just random words strung together at first.

[bug report] The share menu available at the top of a community page shares the wrong address (lemm.ee)
 

If I go to somecommunity@lemmy.world while I am logged in to my lemm.ee account and tap the share icon, it creates a link to somecommunity@lemm.ee when it should be @lemmy.world.

When posting a URL, the post title should be automatically taken from the link (lemm.ee)
 

In reddit apps, whenever you create a new post based on a URL, the post title gets suggested from the link title. Can we get this feature in Liftoff?

Are there plans to add mod tools to Liftoff? (lemm.ee)
 

Currently I have to use lemmy in my browser to access mod tools. Will these be brought to Liftoff?

[bug?] lemm.ee on desktop is showing random communities in my Subscribed feed (lemm.ee)
 

If I go directly to lemm.ee in the browser (Chrome), log in, and change the view to Subscribed, I often see posts from communities I am not subscribed to.

[bug] If I upvotes a comment and then leave the thread, when I return to that thread the comment no longer has the upvotes arrow marked in colour (lemm.ee)
 

To reproduce:

  1. Go into a post
  2. Upvote a comment. Observe that the up arrow has changed colour
  3. Exit the post back to the main page
  4. Return to the same post and find the comment. The up arrow will no longer be coloured.

[Feature req] Subscribed communities listed in profile view should show instance names (lemm.ee)
 

When I go to my profile, on the About tab there is a list of my subscribed communities. But it only shows the community name, not the instance. If I have subscribed to multiple communities with the same name, there's no way to tell them apart.

For example I can see three entries for "!android". Would be nice to know which is which.

Moreton Bay Chestnut starting to sprout (imgpile.com)
 

I love these guys. Grab a few seeds from a local park, take them home and watch them sprout.

The Moreton Bay Chestnut (aka black bean tree, or three bean tree) is native to south east Queensland and grows into a large tree, unless kept in a pot.
