Agreed, that was my first thought as well. If I saw this with no context I'd assume it was a 3rd party reddit app, and if I looked further and saw it was for Lemmy I'd assume it's trying to be a reddit rip-off.
Hahahahaha! 😂 This is amazing! That sub was probably the main one I enjoyed visiting lately that didn't really have an off-reddit alternative. (Signal and Bitwarden I went to to help others with questions, but they have their own community forums.)
And when someone asked why NewYuzuPiracy didn't go dark, they got down voted to hell with some of the top comments saying how it was dumb to go dark, nobody cares about 3rd party apps, etc. Well jokes on them now!
I love how y'all have just invented what we used to refer to as "a forum" 😂
Before reddit, Badger and Blade was a forum dedicated to traditional wet shaving, with sub forums for double edged razors, single edge razors, old school straight razors, badger hair brushes, different shaving soaps, and some other nice manly things like knives or fountain pens or leather goods or what have you.
If people didn't like B&B, there was also The Shave Den, a similar forum with different mods and different rules and some similar sub forums.
For tech you could (and still can) join linustechtips.com or there were probably others for Chris Parillo or TWiT or Cali Lewis or whatever.
Agreed. Threads with links to external URLs work well if you want the external link, but tapping an image usually just takes you to another view of the home screen, and text posts have nowhere to click at all.
I'd like to see every post have a tappable square like RiF, and unlike RiF I'd like it to always take you to the comments - then it'll just display the image or text, or you can click again for the link.
I'd also like the option to move the tappable square / thumbnail to the left.
will ban you because you violated some hidden rule not advertised
Boy, are you in for a surprise on Lemmy. Did you see the thread yesterday about lemmy.ml banning people for posting news articles in a news community that are critical of the CCP?
