Could be a Lemmy.Zip thing, then. Would be nice if the people who run instances would also consider how their personal hosting choices effect sharing across the wider internet. I get us tech nerds have our respective preferences for obscure formats for various reasons, but we really should be playing somewhat nicely with other environments if we want to attract users.

Tested uploading an image reply in browser and Voyager, and they both seem to upload in webp. Perhaps a lemmy.zip instance thing?

When I try to use the built-in share feature, it’s sharing it as a .avif file. Wonder if it’s specific to the app I’m using (Voyager). Something I’ve only noticed happening recently.

Either way, good content at least!

sigh Great, another format I have to wait for other apps to support if I want to share the memes. And webp was finally getting to the point where it wasn’t annoying the fuck out of me.

At the very least go back the first English version of the article chain.

The language of the end-post should probably be in the language used in the info bar, yes. And this article is in English. What you implied is that if a story originally came from a non-English source then it's automatically suspect.

Hmm, can’t call out racism in here, apparently. Cool mods. I'd expect nothing less from lemmy.world.

The app’s already made up of mostly fake accounts. There’s more bots on Grindr than actual people.

You'd think a medical facility that makes treatment decisions based on just the possibility that a woman is pregnant would also have some means of testing for that. Do they just refuse to touch women unless they bring their own pregnancy test in for the appointment? Having to go pee on a stick in the bathroom of a fast food restaurant is appalling.

Never really thought about it before, but is there a reason for the distinction?

Fair enough. But can we just settle on one? The various formats aren’t much of an issue on desktop. Gets much more annoying when you’re primarily a mobile user and you have to wait for the various apps to support the new format fad.
