My experience with Reddit has been no different though. I don't think that is a Lemmy issue but a broader social media issue.

Edit: Looking back at your initial comment, I see that you made this exact point.

I switched to the Voyager app because the first one I tried did that. Voyager has been great so far. I've only been actively on Lemmy for a couple of weeks now but I like it.

This is how it is for me. I have it setup as a square button instead of the longer rectangle.
