I think the reasoning was that there was a race condition between the code causing the bluescreen and the code updating to avoid the bluescreen so rebooting 15 times would give a lot of opportunities for the updater to win the race.

There are still more restrictions however on spending on other candidates and they would have to act like any other PAC, only helping via donating/running ads in support of (but importantly not directly by) any other candidate.

The money Biden has raised directly however can only go to the people that were on his ticket at the time the donation was made

That’s the part of the code that seems strange??

While I definitely agree, lemmy instances hosted by generous members of the community aren’t necessarily ran by people who deal with this stuff day to day and cutting them some slack is extremely fair imo

Yeah, I think I just handle the login differently so Lemmios will log out much quicker if there is an error, tell me if there are any more bugs though, I’ll try my best to fix them!

Ok fixed! Will be pushed to testflight and then the app store when apple review finishes, I’ll update as that process happens. Sorry for the bugs lol

EDIT: Published on both!

Yeah it’s due to the 0.19 beta update, will work on fixing this (should be quick) later tonight

Huh, could you send me a video of this behavior? It seems to be working fine for me. Just to make sure, where is this happening?

Hmm, from what I have seen there is no way inside the Lemmy API to do this (would love details if this has been added) and I have been told by Lemmy developers to not try this until then since for large community groups it would severely impact server performance. I’ll ping @[email protected] just in case they want to help

Hey, Lemmios developer here, what do you mean by cutting off images? It’s a known bug (I’m not sure that’s the right word because it’s working as intended just looks odd when people embed images in the body of a post) that Lemmios will only show the begging of a text post in the main feed, but once a post is clicked on there shouldn’t be any cut off images? The image loads fine for me and I would love a screenshot of it getting cut off if you can?

It does not mean that lemmy is less secure, but yes, it means that malicious app developers will have a much easier time stealing login credentials because entering them inside the app is already the norm. However this is definitely a feature that can be added so it does not mean anything bad long term

Even though they are both fediverse they still are quite different and one of the important differences is that lemmy does not support oauth so apps don’t have that option, as for why all mastodon apps use it: it’s because of the security benefits to the user and (as a lemmy app developer) implementing auth is hard lol

Yes it should, the issue you might be encountering is that in the list it uses the (lower quality) thumbnail image and it uses the full quality image when looking at an individual post. After cutting my own network images will still load for me, I will add showing how large the cache is and the ability to clear it soon

Yeah sorry that update was very rushed (this is what I get for still not wrapping my brain around the fact people actually use my app lol) since I published it right before I went flying, but yes should be fixed in 1.6.142. Also that’s definitely far too much praise for right now, but it really means a lot, thank you!

It is only on the beta for right now since Apple takes a while to review AppStore submissions, but yeah I would love some examples if you want to send them

Ok, so, for now, I added it to the menu so you can just tap and drag to the buttons (can also long-press the comment), but I’m not sure how I would implement the UI for it being on the bottom since it would make threads significantly longer, and for the right, I feel like long comments would mean a lot of empty space around them. If you have ideas of how it would fit well I would love to hear them.

I don’t believe that Memmy has a solution, last I checked they just don’t support notifications on Lemmy.world cause they had about 2x the requests of the next highest api user and their IP got banned. (Details might be foggy I talked to Rudd like a week ago about this)

And yes I agree that oauth is definitely the solution, however for now at least with open source apps (and backends) it is possible to make sure that only the auth token (never passwords) is sent and that the backend only uses it for the right reasons. It is also important to mention that even with oauth the app would have to send the auth token to the backend (Apollo for Reddit did this for context).

No, you might be thinking of the websockets that used to be supported but the API was overhauled since it was too taxing and the websocket endpoints have been removed

Yeah, I’m trying to add as much as I can, thanks for the recognition!
