Hey everyone, inaugural post for feedback friday.

This is a place for the lemmy devs, and site admins here to

  • Give updates / show you what we’ve been working on.
  • For anyone to suggest improvements, better moderation practices, and how we can improve both lemmy and this site in general.

Also its very helpful to me if you post feature requests / bugs on the github issue tracker. They’ll probably get lost here otherwise.

    I personally prefer it goes to the “comment” (post) section rather than the external link.

    • Easier to click and tap to access the comment section vs clicking/tapping the small comment icon.
    • Functional consistency. When you click a text post it will send you to the “comment” (post) section, the same way for links.

    P.S. Reddit mobile webpage currently sends you to the “comment” (post) section and not to the external link.

      This is a pretty strange point to make, of course it’s easier, it’s the biggest part of the post

      Functional consistency. When you click a text post it will send you to the “comment” (post) section, the same way for links.

      I’m not sure why one would expect functional consistency when they’re different kind of posts. Most all links go to the content the link is about, when it’s a text post the text is the content. This is just how links work.

      I hope Lemmy can aspire to be better than Reddit ;)
