I don’t know if this is just me or what, but sometimes I can upvote successfully on posts, but then again sometimes I get an error message stating: “This thread was retrieved via lemmy.world. You’re not logged in there.” When I open Connect for Lemmy, and go to the same post, I can upvote normally. Is this a bug or a feature?

    What does that mean in practice? I can only use this app if I have an account on lemmy.world? Or am I misunderstanding something here?

      If I’m understanding correctly the app would only show the one lemmy.world instance by default for new installs instead of the three (lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, beehaw.org) it does now. Users would still be able to add other instances and login to them as normal. You would still be able to use the app for whatever instance you prefer.

        Yeah, I’m slowly starting to understand how this works 😅 Thanks for the clarification!
