Anyone not able to post? It's been loading for ages for me

Anyone else having issues with login on mobile devices? I can't login at all, but I can normally enter on desktop. Tried in Brave and in Chrome, it doesn't work–after pressing button it keeps loading forever.

EDIT: turns out I kept entering the wrong password entire time. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Creating a new community, and the form is completely filled out, but when I press "create" it circles back to the top of the form. Also what is the difference between Name and Display Name. Name is what it keeps highlighting.

It could be useful to have sub-communities like Usenet had newsgroup hierarchies. E.g. within c/tools there could be c/tools/drills, c/tools/saws, or whatever. On deaddit (formerly called reddit) they end up making dozens of related top level subreddits scattered around but I think it is good to add some kind of organizational structure.

There should be a way to set "my posting language is English" in my profile settings, so that it's automatically set to English when I post, evern single time, unless I go out of my way to choose something different for a particular post.

@ruud FYI, not sure if something is backed up between lemmy dot world and the mastodon server I'm on. I follow the c/gunners community from mastodon, and was getting updates in my home feed until yesterday. Posts (like this) are viewable, and can be replied to, by pasting the URL into search, but they're no longer showing up in the home feed.

(edit) and I see the reply shows up on lemmy 🤔​

Search by community is not working. If you go to search page, and select a community and click search, it will search in all communities anyway.

Former reddit user making the switch the best I can.

• Found this guide and made an account on Lemmy.world
• went on my merry way and found several communities here and there
• tried to install the mobile client Jerboa and got blocked because the server is older than the app version — and for some reason the former versions crash on my phone

➡ am I right to assume that the end user risks losing its app mobile access everytime there's a update from the app and / or the server?

• in the end I ended up downloading Thunder which allowed me to login to lemmy.world without version issues

Improvement: Support for search operators

For example:

• Currently, when I use the """ character on Lemmy search, it searches posts/comments with only the """ on them.

My lemmy search improvement requests:

• "hello world" should strictly show comments/posts matching Hello World, case insensitive by default (with case-sensitive check box)
  • like: "Hello Everyone" shows posts/comments with the phrase "hello everyone" on them but not "hello" and/or "everyone"
• -${KEYWORD} or -${COMMUNITY} excludes a specific keyword or community from the search result. Using -"Hello World" filters results with the phrase "Hello World" on them. If it's a community like -"community@lemmy.instance", it will exclude the community from the results.
• * asterisks - wildcard
• | pipe - logical OR search.

Communities that have been broken due to the bug regarding remote moderators are still unusable from outside lemmy.world, breaking federation: https://lemmy.world/post/209377

Assistance is needed from the administrators for all such communities.

I've discovered a pattern to my logout error as referred to here: https://lemmy.world/comment/1144382

It occurs specifically when I navigate to a community page, without visiting the homepage first. If I navigate specifically to, for example, lemmy.world/c/lemmyworld, I'll be logged out. However, if I visit lemmy.world and then visit lemmy.world/c/lemmyworld, I'll be logged in.

I wonder if this is a bug with SameSite in the JWT? Reddit's token, for example, has a value of None, where Lemmy's has a value of Strict. I've changed that to None for the moment, we'll see if that changes anything

Someone has probably mentioned it already but Jerboa is giving me this error when trying to use lemmy.world

I'm experiencing a login issue related to Microsoft Edge on Mac OS.

Upon entering login credentials, the purple LOGGED IN popup box appears in lower left, but I am still not logged in. Upper right still shows SIGN IN. If I try to do anything, it redirects me to login page, credentials are entered, returned to home page again, but not logged in. Repeat ad infinitum.

Chrome and Safari work fine.

Browser: Microsoft Edge.Version 115.0.1901.183 (Official build) (x86_64)

OS: macOS 11.7.8 (20G1351)

It it possible to add thumbnails to posts in photography communities?
