Welcome to /c/SoftwareGore!

This is a community where you can poke fun at nasty software. This community is your go-to destination to look at the most cringe-worthy and facepalm-inducing moments of software gone wrong. Whether it's a user interface that defies all logic, a crash that leaves you in disbelief, silly bugs or glitches that make you go crazy, or an error message that feels like it was written by an unpaid intern, this is the place to see them all!

Remember to read the rules before you make a post or comment!

  10. At last, use common sense. If you think you shouldn't say something to a person in real life, then don't say it here.
  11. Community specific rules:
    • Posts that contain any AI-related content as the main focus (for example: AI “hallucinations”, repeated words or phrases, different than expected responses, etc.) will be removed. (polled)

Lemmy-UI has always has its share of software gore. Haven't used it in forever, but good to know it's still there.

Back in the 0.17.x days and prior, it used websockets instead of the HTTP API. After a few minutes of browsing, the feed would just start rapidly flooding with every post ever made, and you'd have to refresh the whole webapp to make it stop. Repeat.

Oh, and it would also occasionally just send you the wrong session. You'd be browsing as yourself, refresh or click into a post, and you'd be someone else on the instance.

Fun times.

I've been using lemmy almost a year now and it has been fairly smooth. But I still get logged out every time I refresh some community pages which is strange.
