Yea the Mastodon devs are seriously underestimating how lazy the average person is lol
I don't understand your comment. This is a fix for a crash in the backend, I don't see how it relates to lemmy-ui because it seems like any frontend would cause a crash with this issue if it's hitting the same API route. Also 50 is a lot. Finding a post with 50 comments is rare, finding one with a chain of over 50 in a row is even more rare. Such a thread would be clunky to display in the main comment tree anyways.
This isn't just a comment with 50 replies, this is 50 levels of indentation.
It's also funny to criticize Lemmy for being biased towards its own frontend when it probably has more (active and working) frontends than any competitor (Reddit, Mbin)
the language is called "Markdown", same as what Reddit and Discord use, as well as many others
very interesting, I wonder if the difference is due to the Pixel 8 Pro having a variable refresh rate screen, maybe also because it has a higher resolution screen and different graphic drivers
but with Chrome being about 10x more efficient on P8P than P4a, I'm guessing the variable refresh rate is a big factor there that Firefox isn't using as optimally
Also the moderation tools could've been Java and connect to the Lemmy database/API (maybe with some pull requests to add to Lemmy's API), which to me sounds a lot better than saying fuck it and rewriting everything, it could've lived in its own repo anyways
I think this is a pretty big problem with how people are using Lemmy in general
https://lemmyverse.net/communities shows 27,726 communities
https://join-lemmy.org/instances says Lemmy has 42.2k monthly active users (as of v0.19.0 that's including people who only vote and don't post/comment)
I just think that's way too many communities to be sustainable, people jumped on Lemmy and tried to create a community to match every subreddit, and then they did it on multiple different instances too.
I'm not sure how to improve this. You could delete communities but then you lose post history and subscribers. You could close communities and make a pinned post, but then they clutter search results and they definitely look dead, because they are. There could maybe be a new Lemmy feature added to merge a community into another one (moving the posts over and then deleting the old community) but that would have complications with subscribers on other instances.
Scaled: Like hot, but gives a boost to less active communities
go to https://voyager.lemmy.ml/ to test it out, they need help finding bugs anyways
Yep it is fixed, I tested it with your comment lol. This is something that annoyed me too
If anyone wants to track this issue https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3827
so many good alternative frontends exist
don't forget the mobile apps are frontends too, which shows how flexible we can be while keeping the backend intact
