  • Upvote/Downvote counts showing for some comments and not others.

    Jump

  • I don't think the number of downvotes show up next to the comment score arrows until it receives at least one downvote.

    In the meantime, you can hover your cursor over the score to confirm how many upvotes/downvotes a post or comment has received.

  • Agreed, justice should be apolitical.

  • Just replaced the spot where Apollo was on my phone homescreen with a shortcut to Lemmy

    Jump

  • Well, with that recommendation, I'll definitely keep an eye on mlem.

    In the meantime, I'm pleasantly surprised at how usable Lemmy is on mobile web, much more so than Reddit.

  • Thanks for the links. Hope their development makes it easier for Lemmy to grow.

    That said, I personally prefer to use homescreen shortcuts to Safari on iOS to avoid having to download apps that can clog up my phone, use up its battery, etc.

    So the fact that I was happy to have Apollo installed on my phone really says a lot about how much I loved using it.

  • Strange, no idea what's going on. Could be spam or technical issue with the users meaning to comment on another post.

    @ruud@lemmy.world could maybe investigate?

  • I'm hearing Lemmy itself, the .ml instance and some others are ran by Tankies that censor criticism of russia and china. What are your thoughts on this?

    Jump

  • To me, this is like Richard Stallman and certain reprehensible actions and opinions.

    Just like with Stallman and his contributions to software, I can justify using Lemmy to myself due to it being open source and the devs not directly financially profiting from the spread of Lemmy (although it certainly raises their public profile).

    It's definitely unfortunate that they're Tankies.

  • Disable Live Updates?

  • I Hope Rexxitors Tone Down the Low-Hanging Comment Chains on Lemmy.

  • Lemmy will likely have its own "the narwhal bacons at midnight" phase.

    It'll interesting to see what it is...and then almost immediately tiresome.

  • And another generation gap between people who use a double space after a period and those who just use a single space.

    You can always tell when someone was trained to type on a typewriter when that happens.
