I like the new icon!

Issue: Sometimes, when scrolling or reading, the screen jumps up. Making it very difficult to read comments.

Improvement: Open post by clicking on the text, not just title and comment button, makes it easier on phones.

And collapseing comment chains, which makes it easier to scroll and read posts with a lot of comments, especially if some comment chains are not relevant to you.

There should be a way to set "my posting language is English" in my profile settings, so that it's automatically set to English when I post, evern single time, unless I go out of my way to choose something different for a particular post.

Former reddit user making the switch the best I can.

• Found this guide and made an account on Lemmy.world
• went on my merry way and found several communities here and there
• tried to install the mobile client Jerboa and got blocked because the server is older than the app version — and for some reason the former versions crash on my phone

➡ am I right to assume that the end user risks losing its app mobile access everytime there's a update from the app and / or the server?

• in the end I ended up downloading Thunder which allowed me to login to lemmy.world without version issues

Request: Saved and Upvoted tabs up at the top next to Communities, Create Post, and Create Community.

I'm noticing a weird UI issue that makes it sometimes look like a new comment is attached to the wrong post.

For instance, just now I posted a comment on this thread, then went away from my computer and came back a couple minutes later. My browser was now displaying content from this different post but with my new comment attached to it.

Refreshing makes it evident that the comment is actually on the right post, though.

This is all using the default UI on lemmy.world, from a current Chrome browser.

Anyone else seen this sort of thing?

My homepage keeps dynamically adding posts so when I scroll, it loses my place on the page. Is there a setting that I'm missing here?

(I'm going to put one feature/issue in each comment to make it easier to discuss each topic individually, hope that's ok)

Enhancement requests: Not sure if this is better addressed lemmy-wide or here, but: New users may not know the difference between instances. Would having the "Communities" tab default to All instances be better than Local instances?

I think lemmy.world need to up the "Federation worker count" under the server settings. The more data that needs to be federated, the higher this number should be.

When creating an account, it should show a dialogue saying check your email for verification. Right now it doesn't show anything which is confusing for new users who are trying to login for the first time.

So I can see that a member has posted something to my new community on another server yesterday, but it still hasn't filtered back to here specifically from beehaw

I'd love a longer bio. I can only fit a few links in there right now. It's definitely code, not config, but I haven't found if it's set in lemmy-ui or in the API/DB. I could also understand if that's too expensive, but would like to see it addressed.

Some issues I've seen, mostly related to interactions with mastodon. I generally use Mastodon more so I've been playing with it.

1. I can follow a lemmy community on my mastodon account but all the posters do not show their avatar. (actually i just checked again and my avatar shows up, but others don't, so perhaps there is a long delay?)

2. I replied to a lemmy post on mastodon, and it showed up in lemmy, but when I'm logged in to lemmy and I try to post a reply to that it never publishes, the "post" button becomes the spinner and never makes the reply. This post for reference. This is the only one that feels like a bug.

3. when someone on another lemmy instance makes a post on our community, a mastodon toot goes out, but it links to their post on their community. It makes it a little odd to follow a link and it takes me to another instance than the one hosting the community. Maybe this isn't a bug, just kinda annoying, kinda fediverse in general it's tough to bounce between instances. Example. Ok making that link, it's clear that the "post" originated from the instance. I guess this is just how it works. Message Board systems are a bit more tricky than twitter-style systems.

4. When I make a post, it's got a warning Warning: If you deselect Undetermined, you will not see most content. and I have no idea what this is talking about.

5. I wish the community page would let me sort the rows by Subscribers.

Any idea why I can't open https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]? Mander.xyz should be federated. I just get 404: couldnt_find_community

If I do Posts -> All -> Top Week (or any other Top) it will show the top posts at first, but after waiting a minute or so the page will update with new posts at the top. This is usually how I browse and it makes it unusable.

Another thing is when I tried to login after signing up, the loading wheel just spun forever without any error messages. Turns out I needed to verify my email.

Can we have more sort options? Like, "Top - Hour" ?

I used to browse reddits all/rising. I find engaging a post early on is the best way to participate in an active discussion. New/Top Today just aren't returning the right posts.

(Couldn't find this suggestion anywhere else in this thread)

When I right click to open a community in a new tab, the "joined" button is enabled at the top right even though I haven't joined it. I can still click a post and join the community, but it's a bit confusing that it seems to carry over from the prior community, which I am a member of. Is anyone experiencing anything similar?
