You can hide the numbers in the liftoff app (presumably other apps too). Hiding it for all users by default is obviously completely different though.

Dont know if its a general lemmy thing but when I upvote a post and then click the post my upvote often disappears. Same when you upvote inside the post and then back out of a post onto the main feed.

Liftoff is there too. I like Jerboa but I felt there were too many bugs/crashes just now. Liftoff isn't the best looking but its the most dependable imo.

Op here on different account.

Thanks. Will give this a go.

Yeah. I think this is a good solution. It's then up to the user to decide if they want to combine or not.

Just saw that some apps do have a search function already. I've been using Jerboa and it doesn't have one yet (for posts/comments that is).

Thanks

Apologies if this is a repeat question. I'm not entirely sure if there is a way to search in Jerboa for similar posts but I don't think there.

I think I need to learn how to crosspost in Jerboa.

I don't really get the point about power mods. Why would you not create the alternative community at the time the mod starts to becomes a problem?

Isn't creating an alternative community at the beginning when the mods are fine kind of unnecessary and just causing a split?

I think the type of communities you want to see affects how you look at the repetition aspect.

I like to use the sports communities for news/discussion around the time an event is taking place. Following live speedy discussion doesn't quite work as seamlessly on two different communities. You just kind of end up picking one community and post there.

Its very easy for people to just camp on identically names communities on Lemmy.world, wait for confused newbies to their community because they're also on lemmy.world and then the community is split (potentially no longer having mods on the new instance).

The potential lack of modding/mod engagement in the future is what concerns me most.

Tried posting/commenting in other instance's communities but only some people can see them I think.

I think I've saw some people say this is a general Lemmy issue just now with posts not coming through properly to other instances?
