Incidentally, I’ve turned off Hide Read for both feed and community, but I now see no posts in that community. Is there also a profile setting that affects this?

Ok, maybe this is just me still being a bit confused by federation. As the link opened the post, I’d assumed it was a crosspost link. Following it now, I see a different, single post. Viewing the sidebar, it suggests there should be 5 posts, and when I originally went there, it said 4. Given that I now see a single new post, those numbers add up—there are 3 missing somewhere.
But you’re right, it is a new community and so maybe it will just work out eventually.
Thanks—all makes sense. A retry button sounds like a great solution. And maybe also if the post is opened and the media actually loaded, it could update the image preview store too?
On a maybe related note, I had to turn YouTube previews off as they simply weren’t working at all. Is that a known problem?
The thing with football is that there is a specific goal (pun very much intended). It’s ok to have a mindset that you’re going to play in a way that makes it unlikely (in the beginning) you’ll achieve that goal (eg play left footed), but if that player never improved, would you still think it’s ‘working’)?
I worked in an industry for many years that was obsessed with goal-setting, and that mindset never appealed to me. I eventually found a book called Goal Free Living by Stephen M. Shapiro. It was a bit of an eye-opener for me, and the phrase “Carry a compass not a map” stayed with me until today. I’ve done several different things since then but I’ll never be famous for any of them as I still keep changing direction.
You can also instantly fix it by not going on Reddit. Just saying—it might be good for you blood pressure :)
No inconvenience—I like these kinds of things but then another question had a typo in it (varx instead of var x) and one of the options was ‘Error’ but again that was incorrect. It’s probably worth running these snippets just to make sure :)
Q2: Which is more efficient? Code blocks do 2 different things so cannot compare. What gives?
Yes—this is what I see. But I don't work in this area, so still not sure if it's google or my domain that's borked, and quite frankly... All I used to test my domain was MXToolbox, and that reported everything configured correctly.
Yeah, it’s to my recovery account. But DKIM is set up on that account and fetched via google. Probably some kind of weird back emf somewhere.
True, but in this case it was. And I usually get two of them—one to my main account and one to my ‘recovery’ account and one of them ends up in spam.
From the google ‘Meh, it kinda works’ School of Design.
Yes, thanks. I’d seen that and it seemed very much ‘this is how it is’ as opposed to ‘this is how it’s taught’. The rule as I understood was that ‘of’ should be used in combination with adjectives that denote an ‘amount’ of something (eg ‘much’, ‘many’, etc.) whereas adjectives that denote a ‘characteristic’ of something (eg ‘big’, ‘great’, etc.) should not be used with of.
The latter are far more numerous and so use with ‘of’ is rare. But is seems to be used with almost every adjective in US sources.

Ok, never mind. I found ‘Show read posts’ via the web interface :).
