If I close the browser and later go back it throws up the little update flag even though I am on the version the update is offering.

I generally browse by "Hot" or "top x hours". I like seeing newer posts that rise and that's what makes me happy. The problem is that there are some rare posts that show a distracting animation in the thumbnail as I browse and it is never something I want to see but it distracts from my browsing. (I use compact thumbnails as my preference).

I there a way to disable playing animations in the thumbnail image?

I usually view my Lemmy instance by "All-Hot" because that seems to have the most relevant unread content. I sometimes filter by "top hour or 6 hours".

When I leave and come back to voyager the feed is filled with old, stale content on initial load. If I go back to communities and reload "all" I then get a refreshed feed.

Why doesn't it default to the latest "hot" posts when I load it?

Wifi networks and home automation systems are expected to last 50+ years.

I was reading up on the life expectancy of different building materials when I came across this gem.

I guess the ethernet cables could last that long, but they rate house wiring to a lower lifetime. Ethernet cables are not "wireless", however.

The only other wireless systems I can think of are garage door openers, but they are definitely not expected to last 50 years.

I suspect some of you are already aware of it but I wasn't.

I love playing with my HA and associated devices. I suspect that most of you reading this get a bit of a jolt every time you add and incorporate a new sensor, camera, integration and get to play with it.

I have all the door/window sensors and locks/covers, every angle of my exterior covered with cameras, alarm, network devices, appliances, sprinklers, household devices covered.

Any ideas for a new thing I can play with?

I'm loving wefwef - my sadness over Apollo's demise was softened by the arrival of this great recreation...Thanks!

I use Safari on my MacBook and keybindings are not working - space for page down, left arrow for back, etc. I'm hoping this is on the roadmap somewhere.
