Expand Beta? (lemmy.world)

When I tap the link to get the app on the GitHub page, TestFlight opens, but says the Beta program is full. Is there a plan to expand the beta?

This level of editorial influence sounds to me like Reddit is becoming more of a media publisher/editor instead of just a platform, which would (should) remove their protection from defamation & other law suits based on content published on the site…

Oh yay!! I’m glad they’ve already made the update to the codebase. I wasn’t expecting it to be that fast lol.

You’re welcome to point people here if you want! Though, that one could be for Lemmy updates only & they could be cross-posted to this one too! Whatever you’d like to do :)

We actually don’t want to focus on Reddit lol, it probably comes across that way because we’re mostly Reddit refugees who loved best of Redditor updates :). I’m going to be posting from AskAManager & others too, but will probably wait for the character limit update.

I was able to join! Had to sign up for Discord first before the link would work. FYI to @nosut@lemmy.world & @phthalocyanin@lemmy.world; let us know if you have trouble joining! We’ll chat more there :)

Do either of you know of a place where we can group chat? Google didn’t help much :(

[-] Barack_Ollama@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yay! Figured it out XD. Under each of your comments, I tapped the 3 dots, then selected appoint as a mod :). Good to know for the future haha

Especially interested in help from anyone who has experience modding, but all are welcome.

Mlem for iOS crashes like every 30 seconds for me :( I’ve had to stick to the browser :(

[-] Barack_Ollama@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I’m using the browser interface mostly. There are still some issues, though. Like, I got the notification of your comment & the only way I can find to view it in the context of the other comments is to tap on the post name (going to the main post), then scrolling down to find my own comment & your reply. Manageable now, but certainly not manageable if/when Lemmy gets more popular :(.

It would be great to be able to select the notification to take me to the post page, highlighting the comment from the notification, and only loading the thread that comment is in (basically what happened when I tapped on the notification in the Apollo App).

Yeah, I was going to say, anyone who’s creating polls on Reddit rn doesn’t know much about how to sample & avoid bias…

What app are you using for Lemmy?

[-] Barack_Ollama@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It’s !bestupdates@lemmy.world. I think that’s how you link it?

[-] Barack_Ollama@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Screenshots unfortunately aren’t super accessible for screen readers :(

It was suggested to me in another thread to use something like Pastebin to share large amounts of text, but when I tried, it wasn’t formatted :( I’m also looking at possibly using Github pages, which will apply the correct formatting, but I’m thinking users are unlikely to click thru to 3rd party webpages anyway

Welcome! :)

I don’t think it’s about morals…

I’ve tried to create a few BORU-style posts, but the fact that Lemmy has a 10k character limit to posts is proving limiting.

Any ideas/thoughts/suggestions for how to format/share stories within this limit are welcome!
