So I've made 3 posts now and chose pictures to upload. Everytime it takes my photo and turns it sideways on the post. I've noticed that if I go to my gallery and edit the photo I'll rotate it and save it as a copy. I'll then rotate it back so it's the correct oriention and save it as a copy again. I'll then make a post using that copy of the new photo that I rotated twice and the photo will upload in the correct orientation. I think this is a Lemmy issue overall because it happened over 2 instances.

Post 0.18 update on desktop, the domain of external links is no longer visible (unless you hover over the link)

I miss this, as it goes to contextualising and trust issues - knowing whether a link goes to apnews, dailywire or theonion is a big deal, let alone the risk of malware/etc.

Could this be re-added at some point?

On opening a new tab or window with a lemmy instance, I frequently find that I am not intially logged in. I am logged in, and refreshing the page a few times affirms this. It does not necessarily require a cacheless refresh (ctrl+f5). It also occurs regardless of what lemmy instance I'm browsing.

This started immediately after the hackening event of the other day. I'll play with what's in site storage in firefox later on and see what happens.

Edit: Ok something very odd just happened. I did the refresh thing and it briefly showed me logged in as @andybug@lemmy.world, for reasons unknown. It didn't stay logged in as (s)he, but very briefly flashed it as such.

Edit2: I deleted cache, webtoken, and other detritus in firefox, and refreshed the page to login again. I logged in, and the site served me the logged-out homepage until I refreshed again. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Edit3: I was logged out completely this morning. No explanation as to why as yet, I'll test tomorrow and see what browser storage looks like

I'd love a longer bio. I can only fit a few links in there right now. It's definitely code, not config, but I haven't found if it's set in lemmy-ui or in the API/DB. I could also understand if that's too expensive, but would like to see it addressed.

Encountered this server error:

FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/post?auth=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOjE2MjEsImlzcyI6ImxlbW15LndvcmxkIiwiaWF0IjoxNjg4MjM2ODQzfQ.kI_dX1BrFqDgk2FYpGgQ0XZV5RavGoPxlSrQdFAcMIM&id=15786 failed, reason: socket hang up

Encountered this error page.

Issue:

So, I've created !childfree as a local community, seemingly normal. Only, it doesn't seem to be accessible to anyone locally.

Meaning, https://lemmy.world/c/childfree gives me a 404. Instead, I have to open it as https://lemmy.world/c/childfree@lemmy.world - initially I thought maybe I had made an error creating the community and added the instance, but trying to replicate it shows that @ is not a permitted character, so the problem must have come from elsewhere.

From other instances now I can access it just fine: https://latte.isnot.coffee/c/childfree@lemmy.world or https://feddit.de/c/childfree@lemmy.world (where the @instance is the default behaviour). Locally however, that should not have happened.

Even if I enter the community locally, and click on the !childfree just below the name of the community, it gives me a local 404 (see below).

Any idea what's going on here, and how to resolve the problem? Since we are redirecting users from our sub here, it's creating quite some headaches... And apparently users trying to subscribe from other instances also don't see any posts for up to 48h (tried that myself).

Edit: Apparently I cannot access the community via feddit.de. The other one works fine though - I do have accounts on either instance.

Can't sign in, had to create another account on another instance just to ask?

Hit login and it just spins forever?

I've discovered a pattern to my logout error as referred to here: https://lemmy.world/comment/1144382

It occurs specifically when I navigate to a community page, without visiting the homepage first. If I navigate specifically to, for example, lemmy.world/c/lemmyworld, I'll be logged out. However, if I visit lemmy.world and then visit lemmy.world/c/lemmyworld, I'll be logged in.

I wonder if this is a bug with SameSite in the JWT? Reddit's token, for example, has a value of None, where Lemmy's has a value of Strict. I've changed that to None for the moment, we'll see if that changes anything

I can't seem to create a community. When I click create it just spins indefinitely.

Not sure if this has been mentioned. But as I just joined I was looking through communities to join and noticed there were several with the same name but just lower case instead or with a space between words.

Should community names be case sensitive and no spaces to make sure there are fewer duplicates/lookalike communities?

Occasionally the setting to use Subscribed as the default tab is reset (mobile browser version). Perhaps it happens during server restarts?

In any tab, new posts are inserted in real time regardless of the sorting method chosen.

When a post is open, its title and post text are sometimes replaced with those of another post. Comments remain, and reloading fixes that.

Can't subscribe here for some reason https://lemmy.world/c/childfree@lemmy.world

I have an issue to share and it's not major, but some of the links are wrong depending on the UI.

For instance, in the default UI, the link for your Privacy Policy page is This, but it should be This Instead (Note the trailing hyphen on the bad/dead link).

Of course, that's not a major concern and it is very minor, but misplaced legal docs could be problematic long-term.

How long should it take for a community to fully federate? There is !usmlr@lemmy.ml which is missing posts from the last 3 days vs https://lemmy.ml/c/usmlr.

How do I add moderators and remove myself as a mod. I can't find the controls to do so.

The 3 dot menu has no effect if it is not my post either, and I gathered from the github that was one way to do it.

Using firefox, latest version.

When attempting to sign in on the Thunder app to the lemmy.world instance I get the error "LemmyApiException: Record not found" whether I use my username or e-mail I signed up with as the username.

I am signed in to the instance in my web browser and have already verified my e-mail, so I know my account is active.
