This looks good, thank you!

I think the issue here is

they don’t show up under “posts” on your own profile

It makes sense to hide read posts on the main feed, but not when you’re looking at a particular user?

You could try from this

Ideally try for a smaller size, else it takes time to load and wastes people’s data

I personally find a lack of downvotes to be annoying and harmful. People don’t go through the trouble of reporting problem content, and it usually leads to poor quality inflammatory content rising to the top.

If you’re new and haven’t really set up yet, explore other instances. You can find one that aligns with what you want out of Lemmy without jumping through hoops.

If you have set up, there are account migration tools for you. They just aren’t perfect yet

Hope it helps!

Hope it helps :)

A few days late, but this is actually something I’ve been working on for Instance Assistant! I implemented a first attempt and released it this weekend. Let me know if it works for you :)

It should pop up in the sidebar of any post on a foreign instance. If it doesn’t load, you may need to refresh the page. That’s something I’m still working on because redirecting on a Lemmy site isn’t always detected as navigating to a new page.

Thank you, hope it helps!

I’ll see if I can roll this into a future update for !instance_assistant@lemmy.ca . I wanted to try and get a “post to Lemmy” button working, and this is a part of that. Looks like the reddit one was done using a Reddit API, and while the Lemmy ones are different it shouldn’t be too bad.

UPDATE: I’m able to search for links within the body of posts, but haven’t figured out why it doesn’t search the links yet. I’ll look into it later

The only limitation might be that the search is limited to a particular instance. Since there is an unlimited number of instances, I don’t think there’s an easy way to search them all without some external service doing some caching of some kind. We could have it search a bunch of different instances, but I want to minimize unnecessary / spammy requests.

@Bucky@816am.ddns.net, is it important for the extension icon to display the number, or did you usually run a manual search?****

have control of your local network

traffic of a particular kind

Could you give an example of what this looks like? I’m sure I’ll have friends sending me similar articles / YouTube videos. Would be nice to have a simple and accurate analogy
