De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da by the Police?

For us, we have to watch the unskippable ad during Star Trek Picard, then it jumps back 10 minutes in the episode so we need to fast forward to get back to our place. This has been going on for several episodes.

Also, is there a way that we can see our own posts that have been marked as read? When I go to my profile, I see my total post # under my summary, but can’t see any when I select “posts”. Comments show up, but not posts.

I have found the only way to open my past posts is to save them.

I suspect that is a Lemmy issue, but would love to see it addressed in the app if possible.

I have noticed this too. I was very excited to have the “mark read on scroll” option added with the update yesterday.

However, as I am scrolling and marking posts read I have noticed that a lot of the posts that were marked read keep reappearing as unread. Not other instances, but the same posts.

Hard to capture this in the wild, but I will try to get images of this happening.

Thank you for doing hide read on scroll!

I doesn’t happen when I do the same thing on Voyager,

Totally agree. Have found jobs through LinkedIn, but it’s timeline is 90% junk. Even the ads are so jargon filled that they are incomprehensible: “Improve your JEHSBN usage to ensure BENS compliance by purchasing XXYYZZ software!”

I agree about the mark read, but I understand that this should really be done on the Lemmy side.

The other Lemmy thing that is really tough to work with (not a Memmy issue) is how thoroughly Lemmy hides read posts, particularly my own posts. It is virtually impossible to see your own posts without going to Lemmy settings and changing the read posts setting. It seems to force the user to either scroll through old posts constantly or being blind to your own content.

Other than the hide read, I prefer Memmy. Love the design, themes, and option to open links in reader view.

EDIT: My other issue with Memmy is how pinch to zoom on images seems to be broken.

Self awareness

I hid read posts and found out that that includes my own posts. I kept wondering why my posts disappeared.

R.I.P. Vlemmy. Now I have another Lemmy account.

Another user here that had set up VLemmy as primary instance. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to back up subscriptions and how to do due diligence on an instance to make sure that it is more credible/stable?

I have relaunched on Lemm.ee, and want to make sure that I am prepared for this happening again!
