It opens the item (post, comment) in the instance that it was created on. For example I’m on https://sh.itjust.works so if I click on that button of your post it opens this post on https://lemmy.world, which is your instance.

Same this is such a hopeless timeline…

Just a “normal” http API as far as I know. There won’t be any live notifications/data on release but this can be added using polling at a later stage. It was mainly done because websockets just don’t scale well at all with thousands of users.

Don’t feel the need to “fit in with the crowd”. Individuality is more fun anyways.

Lemmys WebSockets are being phased out currently and thus all bugs regarding them (wrong vote counters, posts being pushed in at the top in the wrong categories, etc.) are gonna go away as soon as the transition is complete.

There’s the setting „Show read posts“ which can be disabled to hide already read and/or up-/downvoted posts.

This is great! Thanks for your work.

What an awesome time to be alive if you just look at the scientific progress and ignore the slow societal collapse.

GitHub would probably be the best place for feature requests.

That said the feature you’re talking about is already (sorta) available. You can head over to your settings and disable “Show read posts” which will hide posts you either A) opened or B) up- downvoted.

I recently contributed a mark post as read button to the lemmy-ui which will hopefully be merged & released soon-ish.

I looked into this on GitHub and this will be fixed when the switch away from WebSockets will be completed (soon^tm)

I get this falling feeling very regularly, like nearly nightly. You get used to it and now it’s like an indicator for me that I’m about to fall asleep.

I get what you mean but I stumbled upon it yesterday and thought it was share worthy

It seems this is the „find out“ part of his plan.

While I agree, lemmy seems to generate a short description of the linked URL by itself which is already very useful.

Interesting read, thanks

On one hand I would love to know all these secrets on the other… A little bit of blissful ignorance might not be the worst thing.

Yeah that’s probably not gonna happen, they have communicated that they won’t give up without a fight.

Disgusting behaviour… If you don’t want to loose money on a moral basis, fine. But don’t lie about being benevolent.

Yeah I thought about changing the title because I hate clickbaity stuff like this myself.
