Thank you for the reply. It's very informative

I could imagine that this often leads to harassment. Are there any measures in place to prevent that?

I'm surprised at how reasonable and self reflective you are. Breaking the instances stereotype a tad

But, you bring up a point that I've always wondered about. Why would an instance not have downvotes? If I hosted an instance I'd prefer to not implement upvotes rather than ever getting rid of downvotes, considering they are basically required to filter out the bad faith content without engaging with it.

Oh come on, that meme is that old

The screen on a handheld really doesn't matter.

If you cared about visuals, you wouldn't play in a handheld, in the same way that if you want to watch high quality video, you don't watch it on your phone either.

The additional resources it needs are wasted on such a tiny screeb

Thank you, but I think you misunderstood. I don't want it to collapse a comment no matter how long I press.j want that to just be a button

I never ended up being able to log in. Even after it said they fixed the issue it kept logging me out. And don't get me started on the UI.

Sync ain't perfect. I keep accidentally collapsing comments because I was used to rif which, unlike sync, doesn't collapse comments after a long press. The fact that that is one of my biggest gripes with the app is a huge improvement over jerboa though

What reason would there be to disable downvotes?

It's vital to filter out the garbage

So, twitter, Reddit, Imgur, and now Gfycat are all killing itself

Has the internet bubble finally popped?

I have. Youtube keeps recommending it to me.

I find that the channel overstates a lot and has a tad too much clickbait to my likings
