Hi! I'm British, I like music (grime, garage, hip-hop, R&B, and more!). I like art, culture, history, politics, & doomscrolling memes.

Also a touch of programming :)

  • Both uBlock Origin and my piHole are blocking prod.vodvideo.cbsnews.com (which is the video autoplaying). My browser (Librewolf) also blocks it - as blocked because the triggering iframe has the sandbox flag set.. Stuff like this always is down to your own set up.

    Click this and then try to post a comment. There's the issue.

    The script redirects all links to your home instance. You posted that comment from https://lemmy.zip/ which is where you have your account, hence no issue. If I link you this post from another instance (see above), you won't be able to interact.

    Is there any downside to disabling accessibility.force_disabled in about:config if you don't use accessibility tools?

  • Any chance we could get an expansion of the apps associated links?

    Jump

  • That's not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about the associated/supported links that the app will try to open by default. Sure, that seems to work, and so does this https://ani.social/post/11480352?scrollToComments=true ... except if I try to navigate to that URL from my browser/outside of Boost.

    Some lemmy instances just aren't associated with Boost at all, so the app can't open them natively, e.g this for example https://endlesstalk.org/post/86819672 will take you to the apps browser-view/open outside of Boost regardless of where you click it.

  • Might be worth bringing it up in the voyager community. That definitely shouldn't be the case.

  • They do not. Are you using Sync for Lemmy? It's broken and doesn't hide properly

  • uBlock Origin should be just fine. Have you messed with the settings at all? It won't block everything straight out the box. You may need to add some filter lists and change your blocking mode.

    I also use NextDNS though alongside uBlock.

  • You'll know Lemmy has really caught on when search results for "Lemmy" are more about it than the Motorhead guy.

    Jump

  • It should work fine. Filtering by one instance will show all Lemmy content. You can use a script to ensure you always land back on your instance.
