The man is a treasure trove of content

I love you.

Just trying to do my part to help non-corporate social media grow!

I am not entirely convinced you’re not a bot. But you get a pass thanks to your top notch content.

Beep boop, make it so.

you pass the Turin Test of my heart

You are the growth lol

At least one of your posts is always on the front page whenever I check, and more are always shortly after

You’re like that one power user on old school forums that you would see everywhere and everyone else would know and respect them lmao

Haha, thank you for the kind words. Everyone has been so nice on Lemmy, and it really keeps me engaged.

Has everyone been too nice? Cause I can help with that if you want.

Bro is the embodiment of the meme “Doing my part!”

Joined 3 weeks ago, thousands of posts and comments. Holy moly

My initial account was on lemmy.world, but since making this one on startrek.website, it has far surpassed it. I still hop between them to post whenever one or the other is acting sluggish.

They’re called symbionts, you fucking racist

Kudos for helping to make the fediverse great

Back at you, Cockmaster6000…

Mad respect, I’ve shared so many of your memes to outerverse folks and realised most of them come from you.

That’s awesome to hear! I can only claim to have made a small % of the ones I post to lemmy, but I’ve always thought it would be cool to stumble upon one of mine circulating elsewhere one day.

Just to be clear, no hate at all for the_picard_maneuver!

I don’t hate him either, but I suspect a lot of the memes come from reddit. Not that I care. The memes are dope

Yeah, I make OC for lemmy occasionally, but the majority of memes are saved from other sites.

I see it as a doing a little bit of dumpster diving so that lemmy doesn’t have to.

It’s appreciated. There’s no way with how prolific you are that you could sustain it if it was all OC.

They post so fast, they appear to be in two places at the same time.

I love u/the_picard_maneuver but I don’t love that I can’t just tap their posts to view the image in the browser, have to click the link and leave Lemmy to see them.

You do? Hmm, that’s strange… I’m uploading everything through Lemmy directly and haven’t been hosting off site.

When I switch to my .world account, it doesn’t appear that way to me either. Could anyone more technical take a stab at what might be happening?

The problem is something to do with startrek.website, but it only affects the default UI (Lemmy-UI). I’ve seen it on a large number of images uploaded on startrek.website but viewed on another instance. It doesn’t seem to affect files uploaded to external websites though

I think it’s something about HTTP cross-origin headers that they’ve configured incorrectly. I’ll have to confirm later when I’m on a desktop browser.

Edit: It’s actually uBlock Origin blocking the images from loading! There’s a rule in EasyList that is matching *.website (it’s a lot more complicated of a rule, but that’s the gist). It blocks it unless it’s coming from one of a few whitelisted pages like lemmy.world.

I found a workaround mentioned here: https://lemm.ee/comment/3068996

Oh interesting… Yeah, I mostly post from Liftoff or Voyager on my phone, so I wouldn’t have noticed.

I wonder if the startrek.website admins are aware of the inconsistency.

No issues for me. Using Memmy.

Doesn’t cause it on the sync app for me. All your uploads show up without a website.

Clearing my Firefox cache after adding lemm.ee and startrek.website to my uBlock whitelist fixed the issue. Now I can see your wonderful posts easier!

I assumed it was something to do with lemm.ee’s policy with federating images to protect against CP attacks, since everyone else who says they’re having trouble is also from lemm.ee. I think what they’re doing is just linking to the other instances’ images directly, and maybe startrek.website doesn’t like that?

I can see your lemmy.world account’s posts just fine.

That might be it. On top of not federating images, I know that Lemm.ee has file size restrictions for its users too (to reduce load and keep things fast, I think), so maybe there’s something related to that as well.

You can fix it by clearing your cache or by using a different client like voyager or photon

Clearing Firefox cache after adding lemm.ee and startrek.website to ublock whitelist fixed the issue. Thanks :)

Yeah startrek.website doesn’t technically allow hotlinking, which lemm.ee is doing.

The thing is, apps just ignore that hotlink forbiddance, while browsers respect it. And other instances federate images.

Being able to see Lemmy karma scores feels… wrong. But yes, the Picard Maneuver is a treasure

Not if it gives me that dopamine rush!

Rules:

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
