Hey, I calls em as I sees em, I’m a whale biologist.

Wait, does that imply “greater” dragons?

Okay. Ever wonder why pigeons bob their heads? It’s so that they can perceive depth. Animals with front facing eyes like ours can tell how near/far something is based on the angle formed by our eyes (called stereopsis). Pigeons, being side-eyed, don’t have that option, so instead they compare the percieved size of things as they bob. Things that are closer will “grow” more than things that are far away.

Look at one thing, then quickly at another (only moving your eyes). You quite literally were blind for a moment there due to saccadic masking: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccadic_masking

Oh right there`s actual documentation. 😅

I was just wondering this. My guess is that hot is some sort of middle ground between active and new.

Hi Teddy, I love you.

Haha, same! I think it was three accounts for me until it clicked. I can’t recall exactly what I was doing wrong, but I remember it had something to do with replying to comments that was my main source of confusion; from my inbox it mattered somehow (this is the bit I can’t recall) what I clicked on to go to the originating community, only one way took me there in a way that preserved my login/subscription (man, I don’t understand yet how to talk about this system).

Mlem needs a lot of work, no doubt about it. for generally viewing content it gets a passing grade, but things get janky (if not impossible) fast when it comes to interacting with the site. I have hopes though; the creator said that they’re taking a lot of inspiration from Apollo, so I’m withholding Judgement as it’s very clearly very beta in its development. Makes me wish I could help (I love Apollo, especially as a fellow Haligonian), but I’ve no experience with app development.
