I've seen a few lemmyverse links pop up more recently, for example stamets is posting this one at the moment: https://lemmyverse.link/lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/55776236

They all open in the browser, breaking the user experience, taking forever to redirect, ...
It would be much better to instead open the linked post on the current account instance, the thing you would get when stripping the "https://lemmyverse.link/" prefix and then using "view in my instance".

Some years ago in a chain of discussion the more typical simple pyramid representation of date formats was improved to incorporate every (big and) little detail of the various formats accurately. The annotated regions of usage are debated however. The first insight is that numbers themselves are ordered most to least significant, that's why every numeric element is sloped top to bottom. This shows why dd.mm.yyyy is not well-ordered, even ignoring the time component. Then, am/pm is actually its own segment of the time notation when it is used, and as the biggest is misplaced when put after time. Put between date and time it is still inefficient, but at least placed in order (and is alphabetically sorted). Another neat detail is the quirk of 12h time to call the first hour 12 instead of 00. This is represented by the lowest section of the hour bar spiking to be the widest. One remaining inaccuracy is that the width of the bars does not match their encoded amount of information. It would be sensible to have the day be 5x wider than am/pm, and the (4 digit) years 2.6x as wide as the days, but alas that would be too impractical for such a well-designed infographic. ::: spoiler I inverted the original because I prefer darkmode.

Ran across this broken link here. Summit shows links differently to the webui, and probably also other apps. I think matching webui behavior is best here.

There seems to be more complex regex at play, including checking for matching brackets etc.. Probably best to dig that out of the sourcecode.

Examples:

Summit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_(spacecraft)
Raw: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_(spacecraft)
Webui: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_(spacecraft)

Summit: https://example.org/aa(aa
Raw: https://example.org/aa(aa
Webui: https://example.org/aa(aa

Summit: https://example.org/aa(aa)
Raw: https://example.org/aa(aa)
Webui: https://example.org/aa(aa)

Interestingly while writing this, I noticed the rules for android long press text select also match webui behavior.

Take this comment as an example: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/20455448

There are a few images with notable resolution (500×500) in that vote comment, that are shown at very small size. Whenever they come into view, the fps of the entire app drops notably for me, down to perhaps the tens. I've seen it go even lower on other votes with more emoji.

My phone is quite powerful, and browsers for example can display similar cases fluently even on much worse hardware.
