Meta/Insta/Threads has already confirmed that both chronological sort and "Follow Only" view are in the works.

I'm in! Let's go explore the fediverse!

That's fair. Getting 5+ years of heavy use (thousands of hours) out of a $400 pair of headphones is worth the investment to me. Not worth it to everyone, though.

I've been rocking my Sony WH-1000XM3's for going on 5 years now and have had absolutely zero issues with battery life (or anything else for that matter). I wear them several hours a day, every work day for Zoom calls, etc. They've traveled with me and are great for flights.

I'd buy another pair (of the newer model) in a heartbeat.

This is going to sound really dickish and maybe it is, but people will keep it because it's a helpful descriptor and the developers feelings about the term are less important than the term being helpful. Plus there's no ill intent behind it.

It's like if you built a ranch-style home then threw a fit when people called it that because you don't like the term. Sorry, but people are going to call it that because it's helpful and not intended to be disparaging.

Weird. No idea then. Mine just pops up "downvotes_disabled". I can still see the count though, so I guess it kinda works.

I'm using Jerboa, and it's returning the error. It could be that yours is displaying on your end but not actually doing anything on Beehaw's side.

I guess I'm the only one that misses downvotes. I don't take offense to being downvoted - the points/karma is completely irrelevant and I feel like it helps keep unhelpful or irrelevant comments and content at the bottom and out of my feed.

No. I try all the time and get "Downvotes Disabled".

Exactly, the issue is just with communities that I don't know exist. If I can't search for them from my instance, it's really difficult to find them. Then add to that that the communities are so fragmented (there may be 100 different communities for the same topic across different instances). If I search for a topic (ex. Gaming) I want THE biggest, most active gaming community.

Lemmy has the potential to get there, but if they want to attract and keep users en masse, it needs to prioritize making it not feel like such a fragmented experience.

I've been doing the same, but the search seems hit or miss. I've found some good communities through the search (like this one), but some that I know exist don't show up. That being said, I appreciate the functionality the app provides!

Lots of Sync users in this thread, apparently. Hopefully the dev follows through with Sync for Lemmy.
