Some apps like Connect let you block keywords, instances, etc. Ive blocked the whole lemmit instance for the same reason as you. Ideally Lemmy adds this feature at some point.
You should be able to block the lemmit user and community in the meantime.
I had that popup too. I found the actual URL it was triggering on, and submitted a false positive to BitDefender. I would recommend you do the same. BitDefender should then release an updated database that whitelist it.
Yeah, I love the mobile apps we have already, I'm using Connect and Voyager (wefwef). I'm personally waiting for Boost for Lemmy, then it'll be like the good old days again!
On desktop though, the UI leaves a lot to be desired. I can't block communities on the feed or hide posts, for instance. Apps on Windows would have worked, but the UI is usually optimized for small touchscreens, which isn't great. I'm sure the UI on desktop will improve soon.
Thanks! I wish there were better web UI options (not just themes). Voyager is neat for mobile, but isn't great for desktop browsing. I hope more tools or alternative UIs popup (or even something like RES for lemmy).
This is awesome! I hope this enables Lemmy app devs to add an option to show videos in a popup instead of having to load YT. That will significantly improve the UX IMO.
Many thanks 🙏
