I remember getting a virus from that game like 10 years ago. I had to do a system restore to fix it.

As a wise man once said “You don’t get something for nothing / You don’t get freedom for free”

It’s full of country goodness!

You have to check “Show content for collapsed comments”. The default is actually Apollo/ Alien Blue style. Also I would recommend unchecking “show action bar for comments” so the vote buttons are hidden until the comment is long pressed.

I’d hate to give the “works on my machine answer” but I was able to from the Jerboa app (beehaw to lemmy ml) took a moment for the image to show up tho https://beehaw.org/comment/145399

It is an open issue, but It hasn’t been worked on yet https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/431

Actually, Jerboa’s behavior matches closer to the apps, Alien Blue and Apollo, the way it collapses to a minimalistic 1 line with username and vote count. I hadn’t actually used Apollo, I don’t have an iphone, so I don’t know how it works. I’m only comparing it to things I had used (Sync, Relay). I would rather if Jerboa followed the behavior of Sync, Boost, and Relay. The important thing is we shouldn’t push towards or away certain design decisions, just because the official does does it. He should pick and choose features which benefit the user, regardless of where it comes from.

Let me show you with pictures when tapping on a comment on each app:

Relay: Expanded and collapsed

Sync: Expanded and collapsed

Official: Expanded and collapsed

Jerboa: Expanded and collapsed

See the way only the comments disappear on the 3rd parties with an indicator on the side to show comments are hidden? And on the official app the comment goes to a small gray preview of the comment? The way Jerboa works now is closer to the Official reddit app, but has no context of the comment, like the Official reddit app. I think it should either 1) change the behavior to be more like the other 2 I show, or 2) keep it as is, but add context to the collapsed comment.

I would prefer option 1 because that is more intuitive to me, but I think that is because that is what I’m used to, and not because it is the “right” way of doing it.

I was about to post an enhancement about this and coming from Sync and Relay, I expect that tapping on a comment with child comments would hide just the child comments, while leaving the main comment fully expanded. And for comments without replies to have no change. But not all apps do it like this.

It seams Jerboa follows the official reddit app in hiding comments, where all comments are hidable, regardless of replies. And the tapped (parent) comment is the one being hidden.

I am not sure which behavior is better (I prefer the former, like you), maybe this should be a toggle? If the current system is the intended behavior, then a truncated bit of the comment should be in the hidden comment. i.e a comment saying “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur”, when hidden would read: User “Lorem ipsum…” 5 • 1h

You don’t have to be public for issues like that to be a problem. Yeah maybe I was wrong to say “legally” specifically (but yes you probably don’t want to host that kind of instance in a country/state were that is illegal). The last thing lemmy needs to do is get bad publicity on the major outlets or even get on the bad side of telecoms and get denied access like liveleak.

Does lemmy even have a specific NSFL tag? The whole separating out NSFL and NSFW content been talked about on reddit since the beginning of the site. But I don’t think any site would do so, because that acknowledges that NSFL stuff is on the site and that could be legally messy.

A few of my favorite classics:

• Marillion - Misplaced Childhood
• Opeth - Blackwater Park
• Porcupine Tree - In Absentia
• Yes - Close To The Edge
• Supertramp - Crime of the Century
• Alan Parsons Project - Eye in the Sky
• Genesis - Duke
• Nektar - Remember The Future
• Camel - Moonmadness

And for newer stuff, I’d go with Anno Domini High Definition by Riverside and English Electric by Big Big Train

You don’t really need more than CD quality 44.1kHz/ 16 bit uncompressed audio. At that point the mix is more important. I try to go for early pressing of CDs and vinyl because I find most remasters are overly compressed and de noised, which sucks the life out the music.

But for new albums, I been liking SDEs reissue series on Blu Ray Audio, almost all of them have the best new stereo mixes I’ve heard of the albums they released and have Atmos mixes, if your interested in spacial audio. Apple Music has many of those albums, but they are compressed, even the Atmos versions.
