Scaled is unfortunately useless for /all, it gets flooded with posts from communities with like 5 subscribers. I don't understand why they didn't implement a simple minimum upvote filter on it, would have made it so much more useful.

he's using right-wing talking points like misusing the term "triggered" to mean "upset left-leaning people".

At this point you can pretty much pick up that term from anywhere. We might think it's dumb, we might use it sarcastically, but it's entered our lexicon.

Food prices are ridiculous in Norway. While I can agree with the need to subsidise local food production, grocery bills really need to shrink.

Just checked it out and you're right, it's pretty dead. I moved off it due to performance issues, and probably a lot of others did as well.

Hi, I am able to access feddit.org from my wifi, but connecting via my mobile data fails. Is feddit.org doing geoblocking or blocking certain IP ranges? It's negatively impacting the lemmy experience for me hugely, as a lot of images in my feed do not load, and I imagine it's affecting others as well.

About 5 - 10 % of images on my feed don't load, but show this error. Any idea what's going on? On android.

Is there a way to preload images? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hi! Testing the app out. Is there a way to preload images? I've noticed that when scrolling, images frequently load halfway when they're halfway through the page, moving everything below them. I find this extremely annoying. Is there a way to preload images before I've scrolled them onto the screen?
