The Fifth Element.

Thanks so much! You're truly awesome.

 

As it stands, there doesn't seem to be an option to make the button for comments open the comments section on posts. It goes directly to leaving a comment.

There's a bunch of options that you can change that button (button 1, etc) in the settings to, including removing it altogether. I click the comment button every time, then I remember that I have to click the body of the post to see comments (resulting in backing out and extra clicks). I can't seem to get my muscle memory right on that - probably partially because I bounce back to Jerboa, where you do click the comment button to go to the comments.

As for visually, I like the button icon and comment count, so I think that's perfect - I would just love for there to be a setting to change the action from leaving a comment to go to comments section. Maybe "view comments" and "leave comment" in the settings to differentiate.

Pretty please? ❤️

Plex or Jellyfin might be what you're after.

I've read somewhere along the way that this is a Lemmy issue, not an app issue. I believe it's being addressed by the devs.

My PC specs have plateaued as of late, but we're both in this picture. 😅

Downloads one instance's communities (and some other settings) to a JSON, then you can upload from that JSON to a new instance. I'm not sure there's anything that quite caters to what you're looking for yet.

LASIM works great. Used it to migrate my main account to an alt for when my main instance inevitably goes down.

I loved Textra. It's not their fault, but I really love RCS support, and right now that's basically Google Messages and a handful of preinstalled carrier messenger apps (if I'm not mistaken). I loved adding a 3 second delay on sending texts - I always seem to see typos as/after I hit send. 😂

On Android, I like Spotube. You can sign into Spotify if you want, and the app will interact with it, but uses YouTube as the source for streaming the audio. This is good if, say, you have a free Spotify account and aren't at your PC to use the web player + uBlock.

Everyone's said qBittorrent, and I agree. I found myself using an old build of uTorrent for a very long time (2.2.1, I believe). I finally realized it was probably a risk being so far behind. qBittorrent feels like old uTorrent, before it got extra bloated and scummier. It also adds a lot of features. Truly, qBittorrent is the answer you're looking for coming from uTorrent.

 

A "B-movie-on-purpose" film, parodying the sci-fi movies of the '50s. It's surprisingly good.

Jurassic Park 3 vibes.

I tried removing it so I wouldn't be tempted to click it, but I like seeing the comment count as well.

 

As the title says, I've set Frontpage as default. Now, whenever I load into the app, this is what my feed does. Note the hintInstance=null stuff at the top as well. If I click Frontpage from the left panel, it'll refresh normally and populate. I've tried setting any other as default, and the result is the same. Any ideas? Or is this something that's already being looked at?

 

Mythica is a five-part fantasy film series that was made by Arrowstorm and funded through crowdfunding (Kickstarter). The Iron Crown is the fourth film in the series and, in my opinion, the high point. It has brief appearances by Kevin Sorbo throughout the series (back when that might have been more of a positive point), as well as a few other recognizable faces (Kristian Nairn and Matt Mercer, for example). If you like B or C-tier fantasy films, you might give this series a go - keeping in mind that the first film, specifically, is more rough around the edges.

Turbo Kid (2015) (lemmy.world)

There's not really much to say about this one. If it's not considered a cult classic yet, it will be. So much heart. So much cheese. So much fun. It's a callback to the '80s/'90s, and "Mad Max on a BMX" just doesn't do it enough justice. Personally, I really love this movie.

A biopunk/cyberpunk film starring Bai Ling. The CGI looked dated when it released in 2007 (think Ultraviolet with Milla Jovovich), so it looks all that much worse today, nearly 15 years later. Other than that, I feel it's an enjoyable Saturday afternoon sci-fi film if you set your brain to simmer.

As far as B movies go, I feel like this falls into the B+ category. It doesn't try to be anything more than it is, which is a fun and goofy movie.

This one's an independent, low-budget movie. It's a fun and raunchy indie horror-comedy based on Lovecraftian mythos. Don't go in expecting too much and you'll have a good time. You may find yourself asking what in the hell you're watching in the first 15-20 min, but press onward. This is for fans of stuff like Todd and the Book of Pure Evil, specifically. Despite the small budget, it works for what it is, and you can tell the entire team had a great time making this film.

It's not amazing by any stretch, but for all of its flaws, it's a great little independent low-budget sci-fi film for fans of Cronenberg and Lovecraft. This absolutely has the makings of a cult classic written all over it.

The Breed (2001) (lemmy.world)

This is a pretty decent vampire movie that's off the beaten path and probably won't make many lists as far as recommendations for vampire films. It features Adrian Paul, the lovely Bai Ling, and a slightly wooden performance from Bokeem Woodbine. Other than some early-2000s CGI moments, it actually holds up pretty well.

Maybe I'm not seeing it, but is there a setting to automatically change which subscriptions are shown based on the account selected?

Like if I have multiple accounts signed in and toggle to my LemmyWorld account, can I have it show just my LemmyWorld subscriptions without having to manually change on the home screen, thus making sure I'm voting/commenting from the correct account?

I hope this post makes sense and I've described it clearly enough. Thanks!
