    I like it here. Its small but growing. I just wish the UI was bit better. Selecting text is weird :S

      Just trying the jerboa android app and finding it 100% usable. Does all I need and easily replaced my RiF reddit app.

      I’m not noticing anything weird. What do you mean selecting text is weird?

        If you look at a site like https://news.ycombinator.com/news , you can left click on your mouse and it will highlight and select any text. This is the standard for most websites. But on Lemmy, it doesn’t highlight or allow me to select text.

        Edit: Okay it may be related to me having it in the sidebar on Edge. For some reason, Hacker News works perfect but Lemmy doesn’t.

          Oh I think I am encountering a related issue now. If I hold the mouse down to highlight text for a longer period of time (say, 10 seconds), it just randomly unhighlights most of the text and stops highlighting any more text. It seemed to only happen when selecting text across multiple posts. Though it is inconsistent, sometimes happening right away, other times it looks like it doesn’t happen at all. I wonder if it has something to do with Javascript updating the posts maybe?> ere. I
