There's really no reason to be mad at them in this particular instance. Their client is Chromium-based (Electron) so they will optimize their new features for that engine first. There's probably less than 5% users who Discord from browser, let alone Firefox, and I think I'm being generous with that number. Additionally, some things are harder to implement (or even impossible) in native web rather than Electron, that has all the NodeJS integrations.

Sadly, I was born with uncheck outable username disorder.

One of those is not like the rest and doesn't truly deserve to be on the list – "username checks out". All the others provide absolutely no value, while "username checks out", at least, lets you notice a potential humorous situation which you might not have noticed otherwise.

Counter point:

Product (noun) - something that is made to be sold.

The software in question is not for sale, therefore is not a "product", and this post is not an ad.

I'm sorry, I don't speak german, I just accidentally walked in here and have no idea what's happening, but trying to participate.

I remember using QuickPic all the way back on Android Gingerbread. They sure had enough time to solve "All Problem".

Idk why people like the old reddit UI and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.

Actually, I'll ask it anyway. Can somebody please give me a comprehensive explanation?
Is it just nostalgia? I would understand, I play retro games with CRT filter on.

I love pixel art and am a retro nerd, and I still don't like that change.

Asking nicely and tolerance aren't the only other options or even necessarily the opposite of violence. Sometimes, it's just a necessary measure and last resort. Beating people rarely changes their mind, other methods must be used, like reasoning and education (preferably even before the person has gone fascist). Obviously, the reasoning isn't gonna work with everybody, in which cases you do whatever must be done to ensure safety.

Think of fascism as if it's a zombie pandemic. Once it's in progress, you save those that you can and liquidate those that are too far gone. But the real method against a zombie pandemic is to have preventative measures in place, like not letting Umbrella Corp. develop the virus in the first place.

Might be a stupid question, but I'm ready to receive the fatal beating. Here goes:

If I find myself in a certain post on another instance (ex.: sh.itjust.works) and my user is here, on Lemmy.world, is there a way to directly open that post from Lemmy.world instance?

I tried copy-pasting the post ID, but I soon realized that the same post will have a different ID on another instance.

On Connect, sub and up (which, I assume, was supposed to say sup) don't get formatted.
