It will work for a while until the guest account expires, but then you’ll need to log in with a Twitter account.

I’m on 3.7.3
It got updated so you can log in with Twitter accounts instead of only using guest accounts. It still works as far as I can tell
Random sort? How do you do that?
Yeah discovery is kinda terrible. Luckily there’s tools like https://lemmyverse.net/communities and https://lemmyverse.net/kbin/magazines, but something like that definitely needs to be built into Lemmy itself.
To get the community started you can put it on [email protected], sub.rehab if there’s a counterpart on reddit, and maybe advertise it in any relevant places. After you get just one subscriber from an instance everyone there will be able to see it in search and the all tab.
For the community to show up on an instance, it needs to have been viewed by at least one person from that instance. (You need to be logged in for this to count).
I went to https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected] with my alt on that instance. Now you should be able to see it from there, even if you aren’t logged in.
Also, I think for posts to be federated properly there needs to be at least one subscriber from the instance (just visiting isn’t enough). I’m not sure about that tho.
On reddit? Vote % is fuzzed a little to prevent spambots or something.
On lemmy I haven’t noticed that
Or Cromite, a fork of Bromite that’s kept up to date and has more features.
This works most of the time, but not all of the time. Even in official apple apps some menus don’t let you swipe from the left to go back.
I use gesture navigation on Android. It has some upsides and downsides compared to iOS, but it works 100% of the time, no exceptions.
I would hate such a change. I can’t see emoji reactions ever being better than seeing a single number for vote count.
Reddit did kinda have their own emoji reactions, but they locked them behind a paywall, and called them awards. I don’t think anyone liked them, even if it wasn’t for the money. They cluttered the UI, they were annoying, even Reddit didn’t like them, since they’re removing them now.
Now imagine that but instead of a few people who paid Reddit for some reason, everyone can do it, for free. Thousands of emoji reactions per post.
Emoji reactions work for chat platforms since only a few people see each chat, but after a few hundred people see the post it becomes meaningless emoji spam (see discord announcement channels)
If anyone wants to leave Twitter, but there’s still people that you want to see, I recommend Squawker. You can’t interact or post, but you can follow people and you don’t need an account.
Not really, if you browse the big communities it has enough users but for more niche communities its not neatly nearly enough to be a replacement for reddit

Sounds like we’ll see the effects in March next year. Fingers crossed.
I know they said they’ll federate with ActivityPub, but did they say they will allow you to move accounts to other instances? That seems extremely unlikely to happen
I didn’t know that was a controversial opinion? Do you think that Apple are as bad as Google or Meta in terms of privacy?
Apple does have privacy violations, but the things I’ve seen them get caught doing are minor compared to the things that many other companies do openly.
The main point of the article you’ve linked is that Apple put the equivalent of a “Do not track” option in a browser, and it did exactly the same of a “Do not track” option in a browser (nothing). Does that mean that any browser with a DNT request option is bad for privacy?
Adding an option that is somewhat misleading isn’t ideal, but it’s incomparable to something like Cambridge analytica incident, or the tracking that Google put basically everywhere on the Internet.
By the way, I am in no way defending Apple. I’m just saying that everything that Apple does, companies like Google and Meta also do, just ten times over.
I believe an iPhone is way better than a Pixel for privacy, even if both are far from ideal. I’d love to be proven wrong, tho.
