...that's the standard? wtf? 100mbps is a bit slow but would make sense, but 25???

Firefox/librewolf is a good choice. Very similar speeds to Chrome.

Think of it like email. Email is a protocol that people can use, but email isn't "owned" by anything. Instead, different mail servers (like outlook, Gmail, proton, etc) use that protocol to talk to each other.

Lemmy uses a protocol called activity pub, and different instances like lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, etc can all talk to each other using that protocol.

You're on the instance sh.itjust.works, while I'm on lemmy.xylight.dev, but you can still see my comment!

I feel like comments shouldn't be a part of "optimistic updates" (showing the result before getting a response from the server)

A good client would only remove the content from the text box once it gets a successful response

You can upvote instead of making an entire comment, FYI

I have no experience with PWAs, but I'll try and implement a PWA for this app soon. It's meant to be more of a better Web UI though.

lemmy.world had some downtime recently.

Edit: looks like month old posts are being put in my feed again

It's surreal that some random project i made because i was bored is now gaining some traction and is being hosted on large instances.

You can always suggest new features on the GitHub!

I'm honored to have Photon a part of this list!

Oh boy a 3 year old post is being put in people's feeds. There needs to be a warning for old posts

Yes, it's a common complaint that it doesn't use GTK 4 yet, it's still on GTK 2.

Macrorchdows Linux.

Obviously it's an exaggeration, takes about 2 seconds for me

A user got banned for mentioning Thunder for Lemmy I think

That's actually quite useful! Great idea for a watch app

Oh, sorry.
