No hate, but I cannot fathom feeling the way you do about Micro USB and not spending $200 on some of the very solid Android phones that have come out in the 9 years since USB C has been the standard.

Saw a turd like this in the toilet at school in 2nd grade and I’ll never forget it

Privilege breeds idiocy

I understand this is a very simple meme, but as someone who grew up learning French I really enjoy that memes like this one - where the punchline is multilingual, are becoming popular

Okay I learned a few things, though they may be specific to Memmy.

1. The /c/community@instance works, and opens the links in the app, rather than browser
2. If you have text in front of your link, it doesn’t work. Might be a Memmy issue.
3. I need to test, but I think #2 is responsible for the Null errors I’ve been getting when text is hyperlinked.

Text testing #3 - confirmed, this returns the Null error.

Now without prior text

test - this also didn’t work

test! - using a link beginning with ! Also didn’t work. Hmm.

Those opened in the in app browser on Memmy. Testing here

/c/amateur_radio@lemmy.radio

Thanks for the explainer! Doing some testing cause your example didn’t hyperlink on Memmy

c/tech@pawb.social /c/tech@pawb.social !c/tech@pawb.social !tech@pawb.social test text /c/tech@pawb.social /c/Lemmy@lemmy.ml

Weird. Not sure when your example didn’t link, because it did in my comment ¯\(ツ)/¯

Do you mind giving a short explainer of proper link formatting? I was struggling with this just a little bit ago

Then limit rewards to posts. And I specifically did not mention a subscription service for that reason.

Yes but to put myself in the shoes of your average social media user - a donation just disappears, although you get the warm fuzzy feeling for doing so. Buying rewards actually gives something (albeit very small) in return so we can show our appreciation towards others who are creating quality content

To expand on the idea:

Ideally this would incentivize devs who are hesitant about the cost of hosting to spin up a server, bringing us more instance options and helping to further decentralize the platform.

Right now fedi relies on donations, and it seems to be working, but at some point the growth could outpace the donations leading to large instances shutting down. Rewards on Reddit are dumb as shit cause they feed an amoral corporation, but on Lemmy they would directly support those who are lending their time, money, and expertise to the growth of the fediverse.

Cringe. Host your own server and run it however you want.

Memmy caps out at 10 (including parent comment) based on the team building comment thread. Is that the case in a browser?

I don’t have a coding background but this was very informative. Thanks for sharing
