I know Murderbot is supposed to be genderless, but because the author is female, Murderbot has always come across as female to me. I'm not sure how well a guy will do in this role, it'll be interesting to see.

Interesting! My google apps all changed to French, I wonder why yours didn't.

I'm a native English speaker but my phone and fitbit are in French. I minored in French in college and I'm trying to shake off the rust.

Ha I mostly lurk, reticent to inflict my rusty French on native speakers ;) but reading threads in those comms helps! Also rance, which is so full of internet slang, I actually learn a lot there

Doing pretty well. I minored in French in college but haven't used it in years and I've gotten rusty, so I'm trying to fix that. I've recently discovered a library near me that has a French language section (my previous library was too small for that), plus a French club that meets once a month. I'm working my way through Le Voleur des Ombres by Marc Levy, and it's going well, but a little slowly because I've forgotten a bunch of vocabulary since college.

If I were a man I'd absolutely love to grow facial hair.

He may be mentally ill, but during these episodes he always goes to this Nazi shit. I think the mental illness just unmasks what he really feels.

Aw 🖤 everyone needs to be hyped up now and again!

Since the last release, I find that gifs won't play in Jerboa anymore. For example, this comment just appears as a static image for me, even when I click on it. Do you see the same behavior?

Edit: solved by user merde alors:

did you enable "auto play GIFs" in settings>look&feel ?

Then close and reopen the app and that should fix it.

 

 

A few weeks ago I posted that my greyhound Greta was in the hospital, and so many of you left such nice comments and well wishes - thank you! She's been back home for a couple weeks now and is doing great.

Here she is with her latest bandage (featuring a G💚 decoration because my vet's office is the best!):

 

Jerboa devs, thank you so much for the latest updates - I'm really digging the swipe-to-vote functionality! I do find that it's a little too sensitive and registers votes when I'm simply trying to scroll up or down in my feed or a comments section. I guess I don't always scroll in a perfectly vertical path. Would it be possible to decrease the sensitivity for the swipe-to-vote - maybe requiring a greater deviation from the vertical before a vote registers?

Another really helpful feature would be to add vote indicators to the right of comments - the entire rightmost edge of the comment could have a color matching the vote I gave it, or no color if I haven't voted. Often if I'm reading a long comment I upvote it halfway through, then by the end of the comment I can't remember if I've voted so I have to either long-press or scroll back up to find out. Color indicators in the margin would be helpful!

 

My little old lady is in the doggo hospital right now (she will be fine) and I miss her and her sweet lil pointy face.

Please share pics of your dogs to cheer me up, especially if there are any grey owners here!
