It opens the item (post, comment) in the instance that it was created on. For example I’m on https://sh.itjust.works so if I click on that button of your post it opens this post on https://lemmy.world, which is your instance.

I added a mark as read button to the posts but now patiently waiting till the WebSockets -> REST API transition is complete so it can get merged.

The front end needs a lot of work… Every bit is appreciated and the maintainers are pretty fast at reviewing and providing feedback which is nice to see.

Same this is such a hopeless timeline…

Just a “normal” http API as far as I know. There won’t be any live notifications/data on release but this can be added using polling at a later stage. It was mainly done because websockets just don’t scale well at all with thousands of users.

Don’t feel the need to “fit in with the crowd”. Individuality is more fun anyways.

Lemmys WebSockets are being phased out currently and thus all bugs regarding them (wrong vote counters, posts being pushed in at the top in the wrong categories, etc.) are gonna go away as soon as the transition is complete.

There’s the setting „Show read posts“ which can be disabled to hide already read and/or up-/downvoted posts.

Already resolved itself, the Nodes counter had the same dip so probably just servers not responding.

This is great! Thanks for your work.

GitHub would probably be the best place for feature requests.

That said the feature you’re talking about is already (sorta) available. You can head over to your settings and disable “Show read posts” which will hide posts you either A) opened or B) up- downvoted.

I recently contributed a mark post as read button to the lemmy-ui which will hopefully be merged & released soon-ish.

I looked into this on GitHub and this will be fixed when the switch away from WebSockets will be completed (soon^tm)

Yeah I’m really scared on how that will turn out. I want to believe in Bethesda but I can’t after all those releases…

I get this falling feeling very regularly, like nearly nightly. You get used to it and now it’s like an indicator for me that I’m about to fall asleep.

While I agree, lemmy seems to generate a short description of the linked URL by itself which is already very useful.

Same, kinda missing all the videos and gifs from that other place

Or maybe ARPGs like Diablo 4 / Lost Epoch, they also feature a mostly static top down camera.

Make sure that your framerate and especially frame timings are consistent and high (low for frame timings). I experienced motion sickness myself when this wasn’t the case.

Interesting read, thanks

On one hand I would love to know all these secrets on the other… A little bit of blissful ignorance might not be the worst thing.
