    No account needed.

    1. Select the triple dots menu in Voyager to copy a link to your OP

    2. Visit kbin.social

    3. Enter the copied link in the search bar

    4. Open your OP

    5. Click ‘more’ and then ‘activity’

    6. Click ‘favorites’

    You’ll see a list of all accounts that upvoted your OP. Why this isn’t possible on Lemmy is completely unclear to me.

    Just like I don’t understand why Lemmy allows for downvotes. It’s not valuable and induces toxic behavior IMO.










  • Did you review the Patreon page? I’m not interested in having my name displayed. I’m interested in having the developers take a certain direction.

    Donating for hardware (like donating to Lemmy instance administrators) is also completely different.

    But donating to some group of developers without being able to influence the direction of development really feels like a money pit to me. I’d rather spend my money on charities. Access to dev chatroom is the closest you can get.

    My point with regard to Voyager is: there’s no point in building a beautiful house (because Voyager is very good), if you know the foundation of the house is missing.

    And specifically the lack of migration tools is a very fundamental issue IMO. Yes, it might be developed in the future. But it might also take years, who knows.

    Mastodon still doesn’t allow quote posts (some clients do though) because quote-tweets (or should I say quote-Xs?) can be used in a toxic way. Development promised to implement them in the back-end months ago, but it still isn’t possible. Searching is also absent on purpose. Those are fundamental issue that block further growth of Mastodon IMO. But that’s obviously just my opinion.

    That’s why I think Voyager devs should spend time on Lemmy development IMO. Without a fundamental tool to migrate accounts and communities, there’s really no point in spending time on Voyager features.

    I think most Lemmy users haven’t experienced an instance administrator suddenly quitting. Think through what would happen to your community if that happens. It’s gone. That’s what happens. Unless you decide to host your own instance of course, but try and get users attracted to it.







  • Set your Interface Language to your main spoken language

    I already had selected them all including undetermined, because I want to read and reply in any language.

    If your Interface Language was already set, the issue you have replying to comments can be related to the language of the parent comment or post.

    That’s what I think, because it only happens now and then.

    As @UnanimousStargazer@feddit.nl mentioned in their comment, if you try to reply to a Undetermined comment/post in Lemmy via browser (not Voyager) it just shows a spinning loading button when you hit Post.

    That’s my own comment.

    A work around is to reply to the comment directly on your Lemmy server via a web browser (not in Voyager), and select a language other than Undermined on the dropdown near the below the text field of your comment.

    That’s what I indeed did.

    The parent comment/post issue is with Lemmy rather than Voyager, but Voyager are tracking the issue here.

    I know. Thanks!
