I just started noticing this happen today. For example I was reading posts in the mycology community and posts from comics started appearing at the top of the page. I’m assuming this is a bug but is there anything I can do about it from my end, or do I just have to wait for the next update? FYI I’m just on the desktop browser, not using any apps.
It’s infuriating. If someone knows how to disable let us know
This is actually the first time I’ve even seen this pop up. I assumed somewhere in here would be a way to do emojis but there’s no icon under the reply dialog, and the coding doesn’t make any sense at all. Hell I just wrote up a small chat for an app last week, I have an emoji icon to select from, but I also added auto-recognition from the text where it inserts the emoji you typed but an immediate backspace will revert back to the text in case that selection was incorrect. I mean, it’s all really simple javascript and I’m by no means an expert at that language, and yet I already did a better job than what lemmy provides? Yeah I don’t get it.
A quick follow-up… so it turns out the whole emoji thing here relies on you typing a colon and then the NAME of the emoji. If you wants smilies you type “:s” and it will give you that list. Of course this presumes you know what Lemmy named all the emojis, and there doesn’t seem to be a way to bring up the whole list of what’s available. It just doesn’t make any sense.
bizarre - I appreciate you doing the legwork
