The shirt supplier may also be a factor. An American/EU size M is like an Asian L or XL. So if they changed the supplier then that's a possibility for the change.

Here in Canada we got rid of our pennies years ago. For good reason.

I always thought Santa was a communist, what with the redistribution of wealth and all that red he wears. But nope, he was a fossil fuel venture capitalist through and through.

Bosses do it all the time. They love barking orders.

Not to brag or anything but I too can bark. And bilingual is going straight on my resume.

Capitalism doesn't believe in Robin Hood. Robbin' hoods on the other hand...

That's right, it goes in the... wait a minute, that's not the square hole.

 

With the option enabled, you can see post downvote tallies as well but it's displayed as a ratio. Unless I'm forgetting or just missed it, I haven't seen anyone comment on it either. Good or bad.

Personally, I don't like it and would prefer separate numbers for the upvotes and downvotes. The ratio stands out. Not just within Connect UI but also compared to other platforms' design. Separate numbers would make the UI more standard and also reduce the extra spacing to make room for the height difference.

If you completely disagree, that's totally valid and I'm actually more curious to see these comments, for perspective.

I was looking at a post when I noticed duplicates of a comment. Viewing the thread on mobile doesn't show the duplicates so I'm not sure if the duplicates were deleted and not shown on mobile or if Connect is creating the duplicates. At the time of posting this, the duplicated comment is with the Capricorny90210@lemmy.world handle. This is on 1.0.106.

I was reading a post and tapped on the first link in the opening post and it sent me here for some weird reason. Not only is the post number off, the instance is entirely different. This is on 1.0.106.

 

I only use the block instance feature for my feeds and don't find the feature extending to blocking user comments useful. An option for the block instance feature to only block posts and not comments would be nice. I'd venture a guess that most people would prefer this and that there are very few entire instances where the nuclear option is necessary.

 

As far as I know, Lemmy Connect is currently the only way for individual users to block instances themselves. Sure, you can do this if you host your own instance but not everyone wants to go to that length.

Specifically, you'll need to go into Settings, in the app, and tap on Blocked Settings, and from there you can manage your blocked instances, as well as communities and users.

I want to also mention that Lemmy Connect has the ability to tag users. Super useful with all of the bad actors that are creeping in.

EDIT: Unfortunately it seems blocking instances is broken in the current version, 1.0.68, but the dev has been updating practically daily recently so I think there'll be a fix out soon.
