Yeah I posted this 2 years ago. The way "Active" sorting works in Lemmy, is you see the posts with recent comments. Someone commented on this, pushing it back to the front page.

HackerNews has an interesting approach: You can't downvote comments unless you reach a certain amount of "Karma", and you can't downvote posts at all, you can "flag" them, meaning you think they don't belong here. Flagging doesn't affect the vote count, but massive flagging does make the post appear lower in the feed, and alerts mods.

This, alongside the tight moderation and zero-tolerance towards flame wars in the comments makes HackerNews one of the best places on the internet imho.

Same. For me, upvote = adding something to the conversation. That's why I upvote most comments I come across, and rarely downvote people.

I'm on Android. Maybe this is default browser behavior on Android that doesn't exist on iOS.

Are you using an Android or an iOS?

Android or iOS?

If you're still having issues with apps, try wefwef.app. I have no complaints since I started using it.

Though if Twitter goes under, I'm sure Facebook will have a hard time explaining why they aren't a monopoly. That has been taken seriously before.

I mean I can do it. I tap and hold, and I see a "Share Image" option. Are you sure you aren't trying to share a thumbnail image from a link? Go to !pics@lemmy.ml and try it.

Edit: Wait, it also works on link thumbnails. Not sure why it doesn't for you.

I mean sure posts about Reddit makes us seem like the bitter ex, but they are to be expected, since it's the only thing all Lemmy users have in common: Being ex-Redditors. It will stop naturally with time.

I was waiting for Lemmy is Fun, but honestly, wefwef.app is just amazing, I don't really care anymore.

RiF still works, but without logging in. NSFW used to work up until yesterday. A couple of third-party apps still have complete access as well.

Comparing iPhone to "Android" isn't fair, because people conveniently compare it to the lowest end. Compare the iPhone 14 Pro Max to the S23 Ultra for example, a phone from a respected company at the same price range. And it isn't "luck". Just a quick Google search will give you the high-end Android devices currently.

I mean Lemmy kinda servers the same purpose, and the way comment threads work us way better than Facebook. What features are you missing?

Be the change you want to see in the world. Be active on !godot@lemmy.ml, and more people will hopefully come.

Lemmur is dead. It got resurrected as Liftoff.

I'm talking about privacy and freedom respecting services going out of their way to submit to western politics. I like my services unbiased.

It is up to us to make that happen. Share this place wherever you can. Participate in the discussions/communities to help with the engagement.

Fucking hell Mozilla. First DuckDuckGo, now Firefox. And Brave still refuses to pull its head out of its ass to be a viable alternative. The Fediverse continues to prove that it is the future for people like us, fuck corporations.

Just five? I'm pretty sure the NSA had access to all their messages since at least 2001.
