      0.19.5 only fixes one of the 4 bugs (cross-posting). None of them seem to be mentioned in the change notes.

      141 servers are already running 0.19.5

      Ungoogled Chromium and Tor Browser are perhaps less popular than they should be.

        Did you report the bugs on the Lemmy github?

        Most people are indeed probably using Firefox, which doesn’t have the bugs are you mentioned in your posts

          No, and I wouldn’t. I created this community specifically for reporting bugs when bug trackers are in bad places like Github:

          !bugs@sopuli.xyz

          The cross-posting problem is specific to Tor Browser, which is Firefox based. But that one was fixed in 0.19.5.

          I was actually shocked to recently learn many are using their phones, which often means 3rd party apps (and which would not have any of the stock UI bugs).

            Feel free, but if the Lemmy developers don’t come here, the chances of your bug to be fixed are quite low

              One of the big problems social and collaboration platforms is people go to where the people are, like Lemmings, with disregard to principles and ethics. I go to the ethical venues regardless of where the people are. Instead of feeding a harmful network effect, I would rather feed free and open spaces. If I were to contribute to MS Github, I would have to consider myself part of the problem.
