I think your mistake was assuming users woudd read the subtitle you had put in a space Lemmy users are used to seeing dedicated to much more detailed summaries of, or even the entire, content. Even if subtitles are closer to the intended use of that space and you did provide plenty of context with the subtitle.
Try expecting less of people. I assure you it will save you a world of pain and a lot of yelling at clouds.
what subtitle? all i see is the title “Such an interesting idea!” and a link with a thumbnail. is there more information that my client isn’t displaying?
I second the question but from the looks of a web UI maybe the subtitle is what appears under the link?
At the top level, I can’t even see the subtitle – just the headline, a cropped and highly pixelated thumbnail, and the domain of the linked article. I had to click to get the subtitle, and I wouldn’t have done even that if the headline were more explicit.
Such a weird thing for a Lemmy client(or instance?) to neglect to impliment:
Killer feature, IMHO. You’re missing out on the full Lemmy experience.
