Hmm, I've just tested an that does seem to be the case, at least as far back as 0.17.4. Do you know when this was added? Or if it's something that can be disabled?

Looking into Cloudflare Always Online, it uses the Internet Archive's backup instead of keeping on itself which could explain me seeing zero comments (i.e. IA scraped the page after posting but before any comments). I can't figure out which page in my history was the post in question, so I can't be sure.

edit: This start bit is wrong; Lemmy does SSR so Javascript-free/spiders should see at least some comments.

~~Lemmy is currently pretty terrible at SEO, in large part because the comments don't load until the JS has run.~~

~~This isn't just a problem for search engines, it affect things like archive.org and offline reading. Earlier today I loaded a page from an instance that had dropped offline - while they had Cloudflare Always Online enabled, the page loaded without comments so it was almost useless.~~

I think it's a mistake to consider all the SEO-related concerns as irrelevant just because you don't care about Google, etc. Most of the things necessary for good SEO are just good practices, with benefits for all users, especially in the areas of accessibility and third-party tools.

I've done similar - I have three accounts on three instances and they each have different focuses. This account is meme/shit posting (since Lemmy.ml has access to all of it) and my accounts on smaller instances have the noisy communities blocked so I can see my interests.

I'm surprised that no-one's brought out a client that can merge communities. People properly using the cross-posting feature seems to help with this a bit.

No, although they can post to Lemmy communities by @ing them.

I don't know enough to write much, but I'd love to be able to read some on Lemmy, even if I do need to use Google translate for anything but simple phrases.

As a student I wasted so much time mucking around with flags and settings in Gentoo. It definitely wasn't pointless since I learned so much, but I didn't need to sit there and watch it compile as much as I did.

It was pleasing to watch though, just like defrag in Windows.

Absolutely, now is the time to fix a few things at the design level:

• Accessibility (let's get affected users involved, starting with asking for their feedback and current pain points)
• Semantic markup (helps with a11y, SEO, plugins)
• Internationalisation (had anyone thought about right-to-left language support?)
• Usability (also for power users? E.g. make RES-style keyboard shortcuts an option or just the default)

It was memes, then beans, now antique memes and next week it'll be something new. People will be looking back on this fondly, I'm sure.

I guess save it so that the actual image is rotated, not just via some metadata telling the viewer to do it.

You don't seem to understand what a meme is, the whole point is that we're using certain images for certain situations - like a shortcut that helps you get to the joke quicker.
