Also yes 😆

Not that, specifically, but I get annoyed when people post screenshots of videos that have the “play” icon on them. My dumbass clicks on those 9 times out of 10.

South Park: What Scientologists Actually Believe

Beyond that, it’s a cult / pyramid scheme.

Also, check out Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath documentary for a good insider’s perspective.

It’s not the documentary, but here’s Leah explaining the scam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oM-FrI5Hqto

I think they’re stating the opposite: that there are multiple posts about it in many, many communities.

Probably at the point they went to the app store, searched TikTok, and clicked “install”.

Yeah, mostly. It’s a third party UI that you’d use in place of (or alongside) any other. Works on mobile (optionally as a PWA) and desktop.

Not sure if lemmy.ca runs it directly, but the hosted instance is unlocked so that it can connect to any Lemmy instance.

Sadly, Lemmy doesn’t provide crosspost information in the feed; the frontend has to detect those duplicates and roll them up itself.

Not sure if any other UIs do, but Tesseract will match crossposts on title as well as URL (the default UI only uses URL). I wrote that behavior in specifically for what you described; I was annoyed by seeing 3-4 duplicate posts to different communities all in a row.

It’s not perfect since the crosspost rollups only happen if the duplicates are fetched in the same batch, but it does help a lot.

Taco Bell

Both chili and vegetable soup.

Never cared for either growing up, but now they’re both comfort food, especially on cold days.

The music from Jurassic Park 2: The Chaos Continues is pretty banger:

Not listening to it at the moment, but I listened-through my Alastair Reynolds audiobook collection recently.

Aside from the quality of the stories (love me some good hard sci-fi), all of the audiobooks were narrated by the same guy. Several of the books are part of a series, and the narrator did a pretty good job, though not perfect, of using the same voices between books for all of the recurring characters.

Yeah, I noted that one as the oddball. Based on replies here, it’s definitely a regional difference. In my area, it’s all but extinct under the age of 60.

Nice. I figure all the web-based ones should unless they’ve got a static list of image types that doesn’t include svg. The installed apps could be hit or miss depending on how they’re implemented.

Allow me to upvote posts and comments within search.

Tesseract and Photon both allow that :)

Maybe others, too, but I’m most familiar with those two since I’ve been involved in their development (and they’re my daily drivers).

Maybe try a different web app? Most 3rd party Lemmy webapps are miles ahead of Lemmy-UI when it comes to user experience.

FYI: Tesseract and Photon both support those by putting [Tags] or [Flairs] at the beginning or end of the post title. Both make them clickable which will search for other posts containing the flair.

The API supports that, but not all UIs do yet.

It’s on my “to do” list for my app.

I have this in Tesseract as “Community Groups” (works exactly like you described; browse the group as a custom feed), but I’ve neglected it for some time now. It works, but it’s kind of slow and the sorting/mixing could use some improvement.

The sorting/mixing used to be better, but Lemmy 0.19.0 removed most of the ranking specs from the API response, so I can only sort on the basics like score, number of comments, and date. :(

Thanks for clarifying.

I’ll definitely add that. Will probably include a few built-ins since they have a lot of different domains: Facebook, Xhitter, Reddit, etc. Those can be toggled and then add a separate list for the user to add custom domains.

e.g. Selecting “Reddit” would filter “old.reddit, new.reddit, reddit.com, out.reddit.com, etc” Selecting “Facebook” would filter all of their main and short domains, etc.

(I usually trawl posts like this to get feature ideas lol)

Looks like you can embed SVGs in markdown, and they render (tested in Tesseract and Lemmy-UI). So if you link them externally, support is technically there.

EmojiMart also supports SVG for custom emojis. So I guess if you host SVG custom emojis from a static folder, they should work as-is, though you’d need to add them to the database manually (which is a Lemmy UI limitation since it only presents an upload field rather than a URL field).

But yeah, pict-rs seems to be the roadblock for “native” support.
