A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

How would you make Lemmy nicer for yourself? (self.technology)

Heyo, what little things with Reddit and RES have you been missing with the Lemmy UI?

For me it's been keyboard post/comment navigation (like RES) and keyboard shortcuts. E.g. I can't post this submission with ctrl + enter as I could on many other input forms.

On jerboa, I wish there was a way to enlarge images posted in commdnts

This, as well as a builtin browser and a way to view URLs before opening them (like RIF does).

Yes, I agree! I'd also love it if, when you click a link, it shows the full true link and then let's you choose whether or not you want to go there, like RiF does.

That way if someone posts a link behind some text, you have a better idea of what you're getting into before it just pops up on your screen. Could be what they said it was, could be a Rick Roll, could be awful brain-scarring porn like Leon Party...
