  • There are issues with both sides of the down button debate, but I'm more for it than against.

    For a different take on the downvote button, yesterday I put a post up on a technical thread. I hadn't really read properly what the discussion was about, so my post wasn't really helpful even if well intentioned. I only noticed when I got a couple of downvotes. I looked again at my post, then at the OP, then realised my error. Eventually I deleted my post. So, in that instance, I found the downvote helpful to myself as well as for the rest of the thread: make sure I read the OP carefully. ;-)

  • Yeah, that's what I visualise when I read the word lemmy.

    Someone was wondering what to call users of Lemmy. Maybe motorheads?

  • So much stuff about so many topics in many different communities. Then it all went sour, and I'm now here.

  • Sort of comes out as a smudge in a dark square when it's a favicon. Still, an improvement over the previous one.

  • If it makes you feel more confident, it's created by the Lemmy developers.

  • Surely raisin?

  • Same here. Also can't get New to stick.

  • There are plenty of other instances to join if you don't like the .ml servers' opinions. From what I can see, all tastes are catered for. Just find another server.

    And, no, I'm not affiliated with the .ml instances nor am I a so-called Tankie.

  • Hopefully it'll get fixed soon, otherwise at the rate that Lemmy is growing, we'll soon be playing never ending catchup.

  • Your test was successful.

  • Getting a bit more used to it after some hours of use. Using the site is mostly self-explanatory, especially if you're used to Reddit, Discord and Mastodon. Looks promising.

  • Yes, that's sensible advice for impatient people like me. :-)

  • This happens to me when I'm using my browser (Firefox). Have to click the upvote a few times for it to persistently register.

  • Firefox.

    I've been using it since the Phoenix days. I occasionally go to Vivaldi (which is currently my secondary browser), but currently I'm back with Firefox.

  • Yeah, you can't brute force that.

    You can imagine the Romulans thinking that 0000 is just too stupid to pick for a PIN, so never tried it. When they find out, they'll be kicking themselves and wondering why the Federation is a formidable opponent.

  • That's a weird bug about the volume key. Can't say that I've noticed that. I've heard that the volume button can fall out, but obviously this physical issue isn't the case for you, as you can still use it to screen capture.

    When you restart the phone, does the volume button control the volume again?

  • Pixel 7.

    I know that a few others have had problems with this phone, but it's been fairly solid for me. Camera is great, too.

    Now that I've said that, I've probably jinxed it, and will RMA it tomorrow...

  • Probably Professor Farnsworth. Each of his lines raises a laugh or a smile. Also, he invented the finglonger. I mean, where would we be without that? The Dark Ages, I tells yer.

    Honourable mention to Dr Zoidberg. But seeing as he's Dr Zoidberg, he can't come top, so there!

  • Yes, sorry that I did that.

    Nice community. I'm currently going through a rewatch of Futurama, so this place should suit my needs.
