Image Transcription: Meme

[The meme shows two fanart images of the character Sayori, from "Doki Doki Literature Club", with text to the right of each image.]

[In the first image, Sayori is wearing sunglasses and scowling, with her hand up in a blocking gesture. The text reads:]

Anti-Cheat

[In the second image, Sayori has her head up high, looking pleased, with a finger pointed to the right, where the text reads:]

Kernel Level Surveillance

Ah, that's good to know. For me the problem is that most of my non-lurking activity on Lemmy is transcribing posts to improve accessibility; I post the URLs to an archive to make all the transcriptions easy to find for those who need them, and I know there are at least a few people from rblind subscribed to it, but with this going on the archive is essentially useless.

Direct comment links seem to have stopped working in some situations (lemmy.world)
 

I've noticed very recently (last two days or so) that when I get a direct link to a specific comment, it won't load anything under certain circumstances.

Following the link from the button on the comment, either from the profile or from viewing other comments on the post, will work, but using the link as the URL for a post in a different community, or opening a new tab and pasting the link in, don't.

In the former situation, the UI of the post I gave it as the URL for just freezes until I press the back button, still showing the post. In the latter, Lemmy doesn't load at all.

I'm using Librewolf 116.0, based on Firefox 116.0.

Well that didn't go as expected... in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

Image Transcription: Meme

[Gru, the long-nosed protagonist of the "Despicable Me" franchise, presents to the camera, pointing into the air and smiling. Behind him is a flipchart with text reading:]

And the best part about using Linux: No viruses!

[Still presenting, Gru has his hand in a C shape and his head down as he peers at the gap between his fingers. The text now reads:]

Look at this, a website downloaded a malicious .exe on my machine.

[Gru now has his hands pointing down, fingers splayed, still presenting. The text now reads:]

*Double Click*

See? Nothing happe...

[Gru looks back to the flipchart in a double-take, his eyes round and wide and his mouth downturned. The text still reads:]

*Wine is launching*

[The Wine logo: a slightly tipped wine glass with red wine sloshing inside it.]
