Oh right, I tried that - I was going to put a link in my comment, not just complain - but it didn’t work, so I assumed it must be elsewhere. But now I’ve clicked on your link a few times, it shows up. Thanks.

There’s some sticky posts for this community - on the importance of initially populating a community, and providing links (I’ve no idea where ‘protest’ is hosted)

Thanks. Subscribed.

The Name of the Wind is a brave first recommendation though. A little joke: for George R R Martin’s unfinished work after he dies, Patrick Rothfuss has already been selected as the author to also not complete them.

I’ll reply to you and see if it’s still happening.

Edit: yep, 'fraid so

Not yet. It’ll be a few days before it will have 7 days’ worth of complete data to take a rolling average from. It’s fudging things a little in the meantime.

That said, it’s just a bash script (I’m not much of a coder), so I don’t know how much use it’ll be to you.

Yay! It’s no longer doing it now. Did you do something (presumably at the .app end) or was it a temporary blip?

Edit: spoke too soon - have managed to bring the bug back again now. It might be because I did actually cancel a comment, but now that prompt is coming up for everything I’m trying to post since.

I’m getting it after every comment (including this one, probably)

Edit: confirmed true. I’m on Android, version 0.22 if that helps.

I look forward to the TheVerge article: Lemmy found to be just a temporary stepping stone in the Mass Exodus from Reddit to Voyager Repo.

It’s maybe better to start something yourself and then request help if it’s gets popular rather than ask someone else to start it for you.

On average, Lemmy communities have about 170 subscribers, so there’s every chance you wouldn’t have to do any moderation at all.

From the look of asklemmy, it seems like nobody asks anything on lemmysupport

Haven’t seen a “VFX, written and directed by” credit seen Gareth Edwards’ Monsters. Always interesting to see what one person (as opposed to a team) can do.

From what I’ve heard, yeah. It’s certainly a feature I see being requested a lot.

This is the voyager community. Maybe you can help OP (and me) by describing how?

Via a web browser, you can block individual users and communities, but not entire instances.

There’s another app (Connect, I think?) that enables regex blocks to do so, but nothing like that is here for this app yet.

Is there a chance this is coming or did I again not see how things work?

Does the markdown you add yourself show up?

Edit: I see that it does. So you can always old-school it!

In this app (that this community is for and you’re presumably using), go to Settings, then Migrate Subreddits and press on the part that says ‘Multireddit link’ until the paste option comes up.

No it’s just a string of text: “https://old.reddit.com/r/subreddit1+subreddit2+subreddit3”

Neat find. Thank you.

Obviously, it can only search one way, so subreddits that are combinations of words only find communities named exactly the same (e.g /r/andor finds [email protected] but /r/StarWarsAndor doesn’t, and /r/starwars doesn’t find [email protected]), but given how many communities are named the same, that’s not much of an issue (and it can always be supplemented by manual searching, of course).

Hi. Your Link #1 doesn’t work because you have a space between the ‘]’ and the ‘(’

Fixed version: Social Anxiety

I only have mild anxiety that this means this comment will likely get clobbered by that link-fixer-bot. Or maybe it won’t and I’ll look foolish. Hello Bot!

I’m assuming that the gallery thing is why tapping a picture doesn’t go to the comments anymore - I preferred that rather than finding the relatively thin strip above it to click on.
