Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Edit: added a description
Make sure to include a description of it in the square brackets for our visually-impaired friends!
I'm going to try to keep this more in mind in the future. I've edited my comments here to include a description.
I'm going to test a thing, apologies if it doesn't work for some users...
Edit: It's supposed to be a pug licking the screen clean. MP4 format though, no audio. Works on most Discord communities.
Edit 2: I added a description for blind users. People in comments are saying it shows up in the web browser, but not yet in the mobile apps.
I'm probably an idiot for clicking a random tinyurl link someone posted, but it didn't work for me in either the image preview or opening the link (on an Android phone)
Interesting. I found myself having difficulty retrieving the full link myself, but I guarantee it's an innocent silly link.
Lemme try again with the full link...
I can see this on the mobile browser but not in the Liftoff app
Doesn’t show in Memmy
I see it on the web browser.
Hello there friend! ~~Using the magic of the fediverse to be here.~~
Doesn't open inline for me, but I'm also viewing this from kbin.social so there might be embedding issues
The orly owl was my favorite meme circa 2007
