    Have you replied to the wrong person?

    If you were replying to me, the WebUI is best optimized for landscape use, and I don’t like using my phone in portrait mode much, especially if I want to type.
    Plus I get tabs. The Android multitasking is unreliable, and switching is inconvenient. There’s no desktop-like panel, and background apps often die if more of them are open at once.
    Lastly, embeds. Apps usually only work with images with regular URL, the WebUI works with Images, Video, Audio also in base64 data tag for tiny images, and images can be made into buttons.

    Let me give you examples:

    This is the Bulgarian Radio 1 stream:
    Probably broken in most Lemmy apps.

    And here’s a button, but in base64 so it’s directly in the comment, since it is pretty small:
    Probably also broken in some apps.

    These are edge cases, but an advantage too. If I wasn’t lazy, I could use animated bullets and lines like on the old web, but in Lemmy comments.

    Welcome to this example comment

    Make sure to:

    Have fun
    Use Linux

  • uuuuh, yeah. I usually assume that if I get a lot of downvotes or a comment I agree with gets a lot of downvotes, then my opinion must be wrong.
    On the other hand, if something I am not sure about gets upvoted, then it’s probably good. I trust others more.

    Probably not a good thing, but I don’t trust myself with opinions. Though it’s not completely black and white either. It depends on where it is, who’s giving majority of replies*, and some bit of reconsideration (e.g.: is it logical, is it harmful).
    But in the end, it does shape my opinions into what I believe is “more correct”.

    Certain (more serious) decision-making for opinions may however take me 24 hours or even more. This helps me to balance out the effects of morning vs night-time emotional state**, which differs more with lack of sleep. If even then I am undecided, the upvotes win it and I take it as my own opinion.

    Asterisks

    * There’s a priority to trustworthiness. For example, lemmy.blahaj.zone has a high level of trustworthiness while hexbear.net ranks low. Let’s say there is something I agree with, but it is downvoted to hell. However, most replies are from hexbear.net or lemmy.ml with negative tone. In this case, I won’t really consider the votes, since I don’t know who they are from, but likely largely influenced by these 2.
    Now on the other hand, say there is something I disagree with. However it is highly upvoted and most replies are from lemmy.blahaj.zone with positive tone. In this case, my opinion is most likely shit and needs to be reconsidered.

    ** Most of the time, in the morning I am influenced by negative emotions while at night I am influenced by… also mostly negative emotions, but this time towards myself rather than others. Late night can be fairly positive at times, however.
    Generally speaking…
    Morning: Anger, feeling of 100% rightfulness, feeling of higher importance, not caring about others
    Night: Sadness, feeling of being wrong in everything, worthlessness, wanting to be useful, thoughts of suicide, highly affected by music
    Midnight (sometimes): Spike in productivity, positivity, will to do things
