I would like to be able to see full size images from the post listing page. This can somewhat be achieved by using the Full Width View Type but some taller images dont show fully. Additionally, I prefer the Card View as seeing where one post starts and another begins is easier, however in the Full Width View Type this is difficult. I propose adding a horizontal dividing line between posts for this view type.

Here is a picture from the thunder app to illustrate what I am requesting. You can see that the full image is shown and there is a horizontal line above and below the post:

And this is what the same post looks like in Connect with Card View (cannot see the full image):

And this is the same post in Connect with Full Width View (can see more of the image but still not all of it, and there is no clear delineation between posts):

If there is a better way to put feature Requests please let me know and I can make the request there. I didn't see a GitHub link when I searched for one.

A baby born on Dec 31st is 1 year old, and the next day would be 2 years old ... A 2 day old baby would be considered 2 years old. Glad they decided that this was beyond odd.

What does preload mean? We don't know yet.

Not a game, but the Dreamcast as a system. Supported online play that was not/under utilized. Had a mini screen in the save game cartridge. I miss that system.

Go to the nearest jewelry store and buy everything in it. Wait an hour, return it as per the refund policy. If there is no refund policy then I would sell it off. Even if I lost 50% on the sell back, that's still half a mil in cash.

Most popular jewelers have at least a 30 day refund policy.

I moderate a community and there are official sources of information that I would like auto-posted when they release. Specifically blogs posts and YouTube videos.

I've looked at things like mastofeed and ifttt which I can get working for mastodon, but tweaking those to then post from mastodon to my community leads to clunky posts with the URL not registering properly or being in the title and not the URL field. It also puts @community in the title for every post.

Is there anything dedicated for Lemmy out there yet?

Imagine there were multiple reddit websites. Reddit.com, reddit.org, reddit.social, etc. Doesn't matter what account you have, you can see communities/subreddits across anyone of them.

That's Lemmy.

When you make a lemmy account, it's more like an email address. You are evolone@lemmy.ml, I am cosmicsploogedrizzle@lemmy.ml. Someone else is joeblow@beehaw.org. We can all chat and post and have a good time no matter what website/instance we post to.

That's how users work on lemmy. Just like email. Communities on lemmy work the exact same way as users.

If all you're interested in is that, then you can stop there and fully enjoy your time with lemmy as a reddit replacement.

The future potential and complexity comes from the next part:

The fediverse is someone said, "hey, you know how people on reddit can't follow people on Twitter, or people on YouTube can't subscribe to subreddits, or people on Instagram can't leave YouTube comments? Well let's make it so you can.

Now this isn't perfectly implemented at the moment, and there are a lot of growing pains (it's kinda like the wild wild West), but you can make a mastodon account (like Twitter), and follow the this lemmy community !asklemmy@lemmy.ml on it, and you'll see all the posts and all the comments that you would otherwise see on lemmy, just in a twitter-like format.

It's not perfect and compatibility across these decentealized apps is not perfectly impremented atm, but in the future you could theoretically have one giant interconnected web where everything from "Twitter" to "reddit" to "YouTube" to "Instagram" to whatever fediverse equivalent app are all interwoven. And if any instance of them gets a big enough head to pull something like reddit is pulling, or what Twitter has been pulling, the community can just make a new "email" on a different instance/website and continue as of nothing changed. No single website/instance can abuse their power, because another instance can be spun up any time.

We are early days. Competition breeds innovation. The best communities will filter to the top

[-] cosmicsploogedrizzle@lemmy.ml 48 points 2 years ago

Lemmy.ml doesnt. But any instance can host it if they want to.

Forget waves then. Reddit gonna slip into the sea like Atlantis

Lemmur is actually defunct. The active android app is Jerboa. Available on the play store or F-Droid. !jerboa@lemmy.ml

I would kill for a Sync for Lemmy

I say they do this now, and in 5-7 years if Lemmy is lucky enough to be a strong reddit competitor, then they could do any number of things to solve the centralization problem. They could easily stop accepting signups to lemmy.ml and put a new default in its place to help spread the load.

Right now, lots of reddit users are bouncing here to check it out, and bouncing back due to the complexity of signup. That is wasted potential to onboard. Fear of centralization is not Lemmy's primary issue at the moment. Lack of network effect is.

I agree that they should ask the community. But that's kinda what I'm hoping to do for them with a post like this. If this post gains traction I hope they take notice.

I just want to know if we call communities sublemmies? Or sending else?
