I would greatly like to be able to filter posts that link to certain domains.

For example, I want to filter all posts that link to the gamingonlinux website, because the owner of that website sucks and I find that site to be overall useless.

I guess that this 50501 movement has somehow gained some recent popularity from somewhere, but the sheer volume of content, communities, and even instances seems weird.

Where did this all come from and why did it seem to come as a sudden flood?

Is there a way to limit the size of posts in the "full" layout? I prefer this style over the cards, but some posts are really.... really.........reaaaallly long.

Today, I changed the batteries in all my smoke detectors. I noticed that the battery light in one was blinking. Instead of only replacing the one with a new normal 9v battery, I ordered a pack of 10-year lithium 9v batteries and replaced them all. Now I don't have to worry about changing them for a handful of years.

Edit - Funnily enough, dinner put them to the test. I was going to test them tomorrow when the kiddo is at daycare.

I noticed the other day that the majority of the content on [email protected] are made by accounts that are deleted after making some posts. Most often no comments are made by these burner accounts, but sometimes they will create a new separate account to respond to comments.

Is there any real privacy benefits for this over something like having a single separate account you post only images and no text posts?

Is there a tool that facilities creating short-term accounts like this?

I have noticed some very odd behavior in [email protected]. I saw by chance that a user no longer existed shortly after making a handful of posts on [email protected]. I made a comment about it and a user responded very rudely and accusatory, which raised a red flag. I clicked on that user's profile and, once again, that user seems to no longer exist. This struck me as very odd.

So I started paying attention to the users of posts on [email protected], and I now see that this is a very frequently recurring pattern: A new user is created and posts about 3-8 comics in a span of about 3-24hrs and then the user's account disappears. Every day this happens, sometimes with multiple accounts.

Since you can't view the user's profiles you can't see what other kind of posts or comments these users are making and it seems very suspicious. It seems like a single person or group of people are taking advantage of some sort of system that creates short-term accounts? Is there s

It seems the moderators have stopped participating in Lemmy. The last modlog was 4 months ago.

@[email protected] has no activity for 2 years and @[email protected] has no activity for 5 months.

I'm looking for an app, that does not have ads or in-app purchase kind of stuff, that has a robust feature to add text over an image. I want to be able to customize the text's font face, size, style (bold, italic, underline, etc), color, outline, and background.

Even better would be if it allows me to start by pasting an image from clipboard, and more so if I can copy the image back to clipboard after edits.

Ideally, something that is FOSS, but I wouldn't mind paying for an app if it's good and doesn't have a bunch of needless tracking.

Thanks y'all!

I'm trying to figure out how I can choose an image in my clipboard when the media picker window comes up.

For example, if I'm on imgur.com and I want to upload an image in my clipboard, there is no option for me to paste into the input field.

Ideally, I would like to have something available in the media picker to paste from clipboard. That would allow using clipboard for any app.

I kinda consider this something like adding the clipboard to the "share" menu. https://github.com/tengusw/share_to_clipboard

Is there anything like this?

I do not have root access on my phone.

I would love for a convenient way to copy a user's name, like [email protected], from a user's comment or post.

Similarly, I would like to be able to copy the community's name from a post, comment, or the community page itself, like [email protected]

When you receive a notification of a reply to a comment you made, it would be very useful to be able to access the post itself, rather than just the parent comment thread.

Is there any particular reason why pasting an image from clipboard works in some places, but not others? I have not been able to determine what prevents it from working? Is this an issue with Sync? It doesn't seem to depend on the Lemmy instance.

This little notification blocks my ability to click things and cannot be dismissed, so I have to wait for it to go away. And sometimes it just doesn't go away. When scrolled to the bottom I can't click on the post to view the comments.

In this image you can see when opening the list of profiles the only account shown does not display a username.

Assuming I am not just unable to find the button for it, can we get a button to view the mod logs?
