That's the shuffle button. It posts a random picture from your camera roll to a random community.

This is probably the scariest feature I've ever seen on an app ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Uh oh... I was tapping the shit out of that button trying to figure out what it did. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

I like this idea. Time to go download liftoff.

A Google image search of the icon wasn't super helpful, but did return a similar-looking image named "style" among the results.

Knowing that Liftoff is written in Flutter, I confirmed that it is called the "style" icon.

A search of the Liftoff code on GitHub for the "style" icon turned up a match with the comment:

// TODO: change styles?

So the answer is that it does nothing now, but appears like it might be used in the future to "change styles." Maybe as a shortcut to the "Post Style" screen in "Settings."

Thanks for doing the research! I've been wondering what it was.

Don't press it, it reboots the server and lemmy will lag like hell while its coming back!!!

You didn't press it, did you?

That... Is actually a really good question. I'm going to look into it.

I think it's a deck of cards and since it's in the community list I assume it's supposed to open a random community.

Currently it doesn't do anything it seems.
