When entering the inbox from mid-feed on android, it seems like you can no longer swipe or use the back button to go back to where you were in the feed. Pressing the back button now does nothing, and i have to reselect the feed view in the sidebar, which resets my position in the feed. This is quite annoying when I've already scrolled past a number of posts and see that I've received a message, since i know that reading or responding to it means I'll have to reset my feed from the beginning. Love this app so much though and appreciate everything you do.

Since their domain issue and resurgence Ive noticed that Im not really seeing any hexbear posts on all anymore, and i honestly miss their posts. I switched to another instance while earlier and saw quite a few from hexbear, but on switching back they arent in my feed. I see that this instance is still federated with them so does anyone know why they don't seem to be showing up?

Maybe just make a fucking forum? Jesus why did discord ever get popular in the first place?

This study is actually kind of sad, because upon further reflection on the data, it was found that the kids with "poor impulse control" were actually less likely to trust authority figures because they had experienced so many letdowns or broken promises from adult role models in their lives. Kids with happy home lives who were used to getting treats were way more likely to wait for the second marshmallow, whereas kids who had been consistently lied to or had never been given spontaneous treats by their caretakers were more likely to just take what was right in front of them.

Right wing star wars fans probably love the empire and wish they were darth vader. Just because they like a piece of media doesn't mean that theyre interpreting it the way it was intended or the same way you are.

I mean if i was just chilling in the woods having a good time and a group of people came along and were like 'theres a dude missing in the woods, we're super worried about him, help us look' id probably join them too. Seems like more of a failure by whoever called the search party. Of course that would never happen to me because I'd never tell anyone where im going and nobody would miss me.

This has been proven wrong time and time again. People dont want to casually interact with nazis and hate-mongers so it drives away any reasonable people, leaving only the despicable views. Look how quickly twitter turned into a cesspool. Look at 4chan, which was always awful but has only gotten moreso over the years. Show me one place with low moderation that isn't completely overrun with nazis and other scum, and that still has a thriving community of regular, tolerant people.

image background colour (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 3 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hey, just wanted to say i love the app and all the customization options. I was wondering though if theres a setting to change the background colour used for the top and bottom bars for images that dont fit the full aspect ratio of the screen. As of now it seems to be using an 'average' of the most dominant colour in the image which is usually very nice, but im using a dark theme and it can be quite jarring, especially at night, when the image is say a twitter screenshot, which gives very light grey top and bottom bars. Ideally I'd like to keep the average colour background for most posts but be able to set a 'minimum' brightness that is used for bright images, but it would also be nice to be able to just set a default background color. Sorry if this is already in the settings somewhere and ive missed it. Thanks

submitted 4 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Im curious if theres a way to see the modlog for an instance without leaving the app. In the webapp there's a link on the about instance page, but im not seeing that in the app.

I think the idea that all viewpoints are equally valuable and need to be given equal weight or volume in discussions is incredibly fallacious. Left wing ideals are backed by a multitude of research as well as ethical and moral philosophies. I don't know how you could be a leftist and say "what this place really needs is more right-wing voices" with a straight face. The whole "im just asking questions, everyone deserves to be heard, i just want to hear both sides of the argument" is a common tactic the right uses to try to seem reasonable and propagandize more people. Some ideas aren't worth hearing out and can only do damage to those who listen.

I mean if i was kyle gass id tell jack black to go fuck himself. He made a big fit over a simple joke when his whole shtick(before being a literal clown for Disney(tm)) was being an 'edgy' comedian who writes songs that are supposed to be offensive.

So in this episode they go into a cave, and can read some sort of energy field, as well as Troi having a sense that there are lifeforms present. Geordie explains that the people must be displaced in time, but only by a few milliseconds. If that's true, how is there not overlap? Say the people are a few milliseconds ahead of the enterprise when they arrive, shouldn't they appear a few milliseconds later, as they still would have had to be 'present' during that time? I don't understand how they would be consistently invisible if time is a dimension like space that can be traveled through. Some past (or future) version of them would be present regardless of the desynchronization would they not?

Please if anyone could help me understand or shed some light on this I'd appreciate it.

100k what? Is this a reference to something or just a silly meme?

The origin of the word actually comes from the Greek myth, and vastly predates the disorder but I'm going to assume you're just trolling.
