Every time a mastodon user uses @ instead of # and tags a Lemmy community, an angel loses its wings.

That's OK though because we need them to stop flying around playing harps and get tf down here to fix things.
I guess they can start by giving Firefox the View Transitions API, whatever that is.
You get an upvote for "whatever that is", because it's annoying as hell when people post stuff with no background and assume the entire world knows what they're crying about.
Thatβs why I was tongue-in-cheek mocking mastodon users who accidentally post to Lemmy. OP wasnβt trying to start conversation, they were posting a random thought into the ether.
Plus, ATCs hate angels who keep cluttering the FIR for no apparent reason. They're not transponder equipped either.
But angels have 3 pairs of wings, so they're fine.
I have 2 questions: Does it hurt? Does it grow?

Seems like it's still experimental and only supported by Chrome.
Ah, I see, you posted it a few minutes before me, while I was still researching the correct link. It's funny that they declare this feature as "experimental", because it's not supported by Firefox and this document is from Mozilla. I hope they will support it soon, because this looks like a cool feature. And yes, Firefox is my favorite browser (since version 1 back in the days).
Also doesn't seem like it's feature complete.
The View Transitions API doesn't currently enable cross-document view transitions, but this is planned for a future level of the spec and is actively being worked on.
Want to know the good news about Firefox? You can help with that.
