Weird - why do SO MANY Philadelphia Cheese players live in Mr Hoxha Himself

Yeah, I understand what you mean (after a year of exploring the Web Socket).
That lemmy auth value is pulled from a JWT cookie in the browser - which you can access in JS by document.cookie. It allows user-specific API calls (retrieving saved posts, subscribed communities, etc).
Yes exactly - living on the edge!
One way to learn the new API is - explore the code of (similar) extensions and browser scripts, to see how they build and send their calls.
Is there a specific API call you'd like to make?
Maybe someone can reveal that method and endpoint.
This User Script called Fediverse Redirector auto-redirects all Community, Post, and User pages to your home instance. It works well.
-
Just click install on that page - it will be added to TamperMonkey (or similar).
-
Then click settings (under the script) and enter your home lemmy instance.
And to directly answer your question: the raw code is visible in that repo, so you could explore how the post redirect query was constructed.
Just pick one of the suggestions and start doing it.
There are a lot of great ideas in your other post.
Yes, this issue has been fixed and merged into 18.1 (the next lemmy version).
-
You can see the lemmy-UI github issue here.
-
You can see the fix/merge here.
And as a temporary fix (until 18.1 releases) - if you click the “create post” button, then click the "back" button, the subscribe button should magically appear.
That’s true - Lemmy displays new comments above “top” comments, allowing them to be seen by everyone.
-
To find new communities - go to https://lemmyverse.net/communities, click the top right "Home" icon and input your home instance (ex: lemmy.world)... now you can open/subscribe to every community you like.
-
Get a good mobile app - they are listed here (with a ton of other great new-user tips): https://lemmy.ml/post/1470777
-
Change your default "Sort Type" to "Subscribed + New" (in settings) - now you have a fresh feed of your exact interests, every time you open Lemmy.
-
Communicate in a genuine, open-minded way - to me, Lemmy is a good place to really connect with people, and have honest discussions (versus the often more 'performative' tone of greeddit).
This cleans up the post info very well - it looks great, thank you :)
I agree, there is a time for purposeful sarcasm.
To me, it requires two conditions:
-
A person has already expressed their real perspective to a specific ‘opponent’, and
-
That specific opponent cannot see the hole in their own logic.
This Norm MacDonald radio clip is a good example.
He explains his true perspective, and only switches to sarcasm for one sentence (at 5:25), to show the opponent how she is being goofy [and it works].
His foundation of sincerity gives context to the sarcasm.
Conversely - nowadays - a common ‘communication style’ is to just spray aimless sarcasm at distant or imaginary foes,
which (to me) reflects a deeper cultural issue...
a hiding behind mockery, a suppression of real constructive bravery,
just dunking on one-dimensional charicatures of strangers (who might not actually exist).
[So I agree with you - there are times for purposeful sarcasm.]
Could you imagine… if someone spent a year on the JWST… then returned to earth…
how mellow that person would be.
